Chocolate Almond Butter No-Bake Cookies (vegan, GF)

Every Christmas season without fail my husband asks for no-bake cookies. And really, it's the only time I ever make them, which seems a little silly since they're so easy! This time around I wanted to make them so that my sister, who is vegan, and my son's friend, who has a peanut allergy, could eat them too. Simple, simple modifications and they're friendly to almost any diet (except the sugar-free kind)! There may be a faint hint of coconut from the oil, but to the average cookie eater they taste just like the original! So quick and easy, and I bet all the ingredients are in your pantry. No-bake away!
