I invented these treats in honor of Halloween, and also because we had the ingredients lying around the house. These cookie sandwiches are kid-friendly, vegan-friendly and quick and delicious! Seems like the perfect combination for a busy holiday season!

Vegan Almond Butter-Dark Chocolate Graham Cracker Sandwiches

Ingredients:

• 24 graham cracker squares
• 1/2 cup almond butter
• 2, 3-ounce dark chocolate bars

Instructions:

1. Snap all graham crackers so they are single squares.
2. Lay out 12 squares on a large piece of wax paper on a baking sheet.
3. Put almond butter in a small ziploc bag and press to one corner (or use a pastry bag with large tip).
4. Break chocolate into squares and place in a dry, microwave-safe bowl.
5. Microwave chocolate for 2 minutes. Stir and continue to heat in 30-second intervals until melted.
6. Snip tip of ziploc bag so that a 1/4 inch diameter is created.
7. Squeeze out about one tablespoon of almond butter into the center of the graham cracker squares that are on the wax paper.
8. Put another graham cracker square on top of almond butter and press so that almond butter comes out the edges of the sandwich but not beyond.
9. Spoon one tablespoon of melted chocolate on top of the sandwiches and spread so that some chocolate spills over each side.
10. Let chocolate cool and harden — about an hour.
11. Sandwiches can be stored in a ziploc bag for up to a week.
12. Enjoy!
