Leapin' Lemurs Dippers Recipe

Ingredients

  • ½ cup vegan butter
  • ¾ cup sugar
  • ¼ cup almond milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cup gluten-free flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp smooth peanut butter
  • 2 tbsp cocoa powder
  • 1 cup Envirokidz Leapin’ Lemurs cereal, chocolate and peanut butter cereal divided, then each ground to a fine dust

 

For Butter Cream

  • ½ cup vegan butter
  • 1 cup icing sugar
  • 2 tbsp sprinkles
  • 1 tbsp almond butter

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350° F.
  • In an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat butter and sugar until fluffy.
  • Add almond milk and vanilla extract and mix until combined.
  • In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder and salt.
  • Gradually add dry ingredients into the mixer bowl and combine.
  • Once the dough is formed, evenly divide it into two mounds and place each one into a separate bowl.
  • Add the Leapin’ Lemurs peanut butter cereal dust and peanut butter to one bowl and the Leapin’ Lemurs chocolate cereal dust and cocoa powder to another.
  • Use your hands or a spoon to combine the ingredients with each of the doughs.
  • Cover doughs with wrap, place in the fridge and allow to cool for 15 minutes.
  • Remove doughs from the fridge, unwrap and place on a floured surface.
  • Begin working with one of the mounds of dough, pulling it apart to form 2-inch pieces.
  • Repeat with the other mound of dough.
  • Press the small pieces of dough together to form one large mound of dough.
  • Use a rolling pin to roll out dough to a one-inch thickness revealing a peanut butter and chocolate marble effect.
  • Use a lemur-shaped cookie cutter to cut out dough, then place cookies onto a cookie sheet lined with baking or parchment paper.
  • Bake for 5-8 minutes.
  • While the cookies are baking, prepare the buttercream by mixing butter in a mixer fitted with a whisk attachment.
  • Once the butter is pale in color, add icing sugar one spoonful at a time.
  • Once all of the sugar has been fully incorporated, add almond milk.
  • Stir the sprinkles in using a spoon.
  • Remove the cookies from the oven and place on a wire rack, allowing to cool.
  • Serve with buttercream icing.
