2 tablespoons Cocoa Powder (unsweetened)
2 tablespoons Chocolate PB2 (powdered peanut butter)

  1. Cook Peanut Butter Cookies per instructions -- I used the Pillsbury Simply variety, which cooked for 17 minutes at 350 degrees.
  2. Let cookies cool.
  3. While cookies are cooling, mix the greek yogurt, cocoa powder, PB2, powdered sugar, and most of the coconut flakes (leave a few to sprinkle on the top for the "nest").
  4. Spread a spoonful of the frosting on top of each cookie.
  5. Stack a few coconut flakes on top, followed by 3 almonds.
  6. Voila, cute and health(ier) spring cookies!
