Instructions

    1.
    Combine sliced almonds and flaked coconut in a small bowl. Crush the ingredients by hand until they resemble flakes or ", oats". This mixture of almonds and coconut will serve as your ", granola". Once the ingredients reach the desired size, mix in the initial amount of chocolate chips (approximately 60 chips per ", ounce). Set this bowl aside as you proceed with the recipe.
    2.
    In a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, blend room temperature peanut butter and coconut oil with liquid stevia drops. Mix until fully combined and lump-free. Add the granola mixture to the wet ingredients and blend at low speed. Set the mixture aside while you prepare the chocolate component. Create a double boiler on your stove and fill a heat-safe bowl with the remaining chocolate chips.
    3.
    Heat the chocolate chips in the double boiler, stirring continuously with a spatula until melted. This should only take a few minutes. Incorporate the warm, melted chocolate into the stand mixer until you achieve a creamy blend of chocolate, peanut butter, and granola. Transfer the mixture to your refrigerator to chill for at least 30 minutes.
    4.
    Check the cookie batter to ensure it's soft enough to scoop but firm enough to hold its shape. If it becomes too firm, let it sit at room temperature. Scoop the no-bake cookies in 2-tablespoon portions. Transfer the cookies to a serving plate or keep them chilled until ready to serve.
