This time, “You can’t bake a cookie with salad dressing.”


Well, yes. I can.


Challenge defeated!


Cranberry Poppyseed Pecan Charms “Cookies.”


These are actually NO-bake, simply because the day I made them it was 101 degrees, and our air conditioning was broken. 

There was NO way I was turning on the oven!


Rolled in oats, they are cranberry poppyseed pecan charms from heaven.
Oh, and they are also vegan and gluten-free. 

You’re welcome.

16 oz. dry roasted pecans, chopped

In a food processor, pulse together the pecans and cranberries until chunky. 

 

Pour in the dressing, add the powdered sugar, and pulse until smooth.
