I used to dream about Mickey Waffle. Now, I’m pretty sure I’m going to be dreaming of this “Chewie Chews and Blue Milk” combo! And shh… don’t tell the family – it is a healthy snack! Check out this cute and tasty recipe as shared by StarWars.com:
Chewie Chews
Ingredients:
- 2 ripe, mashed bananas
- 1 3/4 cup rolled oats
- 1/3 cup almost slivers
- 1/2 Tbsp chia seeds
- 1 Tbsp maple syrup
Additional Items Needed:
- Oven
- Microwave
- 2 medium bowls (microwave-safe)
- Parchment paper
- 1 rubber spatula
- Circle cookie cutter
- Backing/cookie sheet
- 1 piping bag
Directions:
Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
Step 2: Mash 2 ripe bananas, and place in bowl.
Step 3: Add in your oats, nuts, and chia seeds, and maple syrup folding it in with the bananas to combine.
Step 4: Spread on a large piece of parchment paper flat with a rubber spatula, and place it on a cookie sheet. Bake for 3 minutes.
Step 5: Remove the parchment paper from the pan, and using a circular cookie cutter, cut cookies into circles.
Step 6: While your cookies are cooling, cut mini marshmallows into fourths to make Chewbacca’s belt.
Step 7: Melt 1/4 cup of semi-sweet dark chocolate chips by combining them in a bowl with 1 tsp of coconut oil.
Step 8: Place them in the microwave for 30 seconds and stir to melt, or stir and heat on low and on stovetop until melted.
Step 9: Pour melted chocolate in a piping bag.
Step 10: Using the piping bag, squeeze 3 chocolate drops to create the eyes and nose. Squeeze a curved line across the cookie to create Chewbacca’s mouth. Connect the mouth to the nose with a vertical line of chocolate.
Step 11: With slightly strong pressure, squeeze a stream of chocolate from the piping bag diagonally to create the belt.
Note: Stream of chocolate will be thick as more pressure is applied.
Step 12: Place four mini marshmallow pieces onto belt. Serve and enjoy!
