Cashew Thumbprint Cookies

 

Delicious, nutritious, and easy cookies! I got the original recipe for these from the Fresh Cookbook by Sergei and Valya Boutenko, but I didn't have any dried apples, so I modified them. I simply used for the cookies - 2 cups of raw cashews, 1/3 cup dried figs, and 1/3 cup dried apricots, ground up together with a little bit of water in the food processor. Then, for the filling, one mango, 1/2 tsp of vanilla extract, and one banana blended until smoothe in the blender with a little bit of water. Roll cookies in a ball, and make an indentation with thumb and fill with yummy fruit filling! That's it! I think that he cookie part is also great by itself formed into a bar like a Larabar. Tastes delicious!
