These Apricot no-bake cookies are your perfect afternoon snack. It takes less than five minutes to make them!

I feel like maybe I have multiple personalities. I mean, some days, I make complicated food, and just love cooking – and if you’ve ever seen my home remedy cabinet, you know it doesn’t even stop with food.

But other times, the kids will be following me around asking for a snack, and I’m just like, if I have to spend more than five minutes in the kitchen, I ain’t doing it.

Okay, so most of the time I will do it, but only if there’s no other option. But you know what? There is another option. Almost always. Because you can never go wrong with a little bit of nut butter, honey, and dried fruit!

I learned this several years ago from a friend. We were living in Tennessee at the time, and they so sweetly traveled all the way from Texas to come spend a few days with us. Their four kids are (almost) as crazy as my two, so it was quite a circus. A FUN circus of course. 😉

And one of the travel snacks my friend brought with her was what they called “fudge babies”. A simple, but delicious mixture of peanut butter, honey, and coconut flour, rolled into little bite sized balls. They were so GOOD! A delicious, and super satisfying little treat.

So the other day, when the kids were asking for a snack, and I didn’t feel like cooking, I remembered those fudge babies and had an “aha!” moment. After all, I’m schizophrenic, not forgetful.

I changed the recipe a wee bit of course, but the main idea is still there, and still just as delicious and satisfying.
