No-Bake Lemon Coconut Cookies

Oooooo, I'm sooooooo excited about these!! First, I want to point out that, yes, those are hands & feet. D bought me the awesomest cookie cutters EVER, and I had to use them!
So anyhoo, at work we have these date squares that we sell in the deli. They're vegan and sooooo delicious!! I wanted to make something similar, but I changed quite a bit about them. The ones at work aren't lemon-y, and I was craving tang, as opposed to really sweet. These are really light & delicate, yet bursting with flavour! mmmmmmmmmm, excuse me while I wipe the drool from my keyboard...
FYI, try to avoid eating the batter before you shape your cookies. Because once you taste it, it's really hard to stop eating it. I had to force myself, reminding myself that I needed pictures. If you wanted to make this raw, you could substitute almond flour for almonds & oats.The batch makes more than 4 cookies. I just got lazy and rolled the rest into balls. I think two hands & two feet are enough to purdy up a plate :) I tested these on 5 people now, who all love them! Hope you love this like we do <3
