Yes, you read that right. Adam Lanza had a cookie recipe.

What’s next, a cake recipe from Eric Harris?

Who knows…

A week or so ago I discovered this recipe Adam posted on an online forum (Shout out to negativelyoptimistic for linking me) about a year before his death. So me being the Vegan chef I am, decided that I should try it out.

And since I’m nice sometimes I’m sharing the recipe with all of you.

Ingredients:

3 cup oats (I used rolled but I doubt the kind matters)

1 cup flour (Adam and I both used wheat)

½ cup water + around ¼ cup more for later

¾ cup peanut butter (Make sure to use all-natural)

½ cup sugar (I suggest using a healthy sugar such as cane or coconut. I used cane.)

1 tsp cinnamon

½ tsp salt (I used sea salt, which is a healthier salt)

½ cup dried cranberries

½ cup dried blueberries

½ cup milk-free chocolate chips (To make your own: ¼ melted coconut oil, 3 tbsp agave nectar or pure maple syrup, ¼ cup cocoa powder. Stir melted oil and sweetener together, add cocoa and stir for 2-3 minutes, pour into a mold/container lined with wax paper/anything you like and freeze for at least 45 minutes. Keep in freezer until you’re going to cut them up so it doesn’t melt.)

½ tsp coconut oil (optional)

Directions:

If you’re going to make your own chocolate chips, make these about 45 minutes beforehand.

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C)

Mix together dry ingredients (flour, oats, sugar, cinnamon, salt)

Add ½ cup water and peanut butter and stir 

This is where it gets a little messy. Mix the dough together with your hands, ensuring that everything is well combined.

Add dried fruit and chocolate chips and continue to mix with your hands.

Add more water as necessary. If you’re going to include the coconut oil add it at this time as well.

 Roll into heaping tbsp sized balls and place on nonstick pan about an inch apart (can be a little closer). Press down slightly so they’re a little more on the flatter side (but not too flat)

Bake for 9-10 minutes depending on your oven

Enjoy with a tall glass of soy milk, or almond milk, whatever you prefer.

Notes:

I strongly suggest using the healthy alternatives for these cookies that I mentioned above. If you use other alternatives I cannot vouch for how the cookies will come out.

Like Adam said: “Bake them for however long you want. Or not at all. They don’t have any meat in them, after all!” I tried the dough before baking and it was just as good as the cookies, so baking is completely optional. 

You could probably switch out the cranberries or blueberries for other dried fruits if you want. I think next time I might try cherries.

It probably wouldn’t be a good idea to tell people that they’re eating cookies a school shooter came up with, so you might want to leave that detail out. 

When Adam was 8 years-old, his older brother Ryan bought a pet hamster named Rick, which prompted Adam to beg his parents for one as well. Eventually they bought him a golden (or syrian) hamster named Skippy.

He first mentions them in his 3rd grade composition notebook, dated Sept 6, 2000:

"Once my brother wanted a hamster so I wanted one I keeped asking for one. Then my Mom or Dad promised I could have one. We went to the pet shop and bought a Brown and white hamter [sic]. Now I am really happy because my Mom or Dad made a promise and got a cute hamster. Now that promise turned into happyness [sic] for me and my Hamster."

Later on Oct 25, he wrote about dressing up as a hamster for Halloween:

"I am going to be a hamster this year for Halloween. Yesterday my Mom got material because no stores sell hamster costumes. The head of the hamster will be like a hood for my head. There is this Halloween group where you split up with a partner to get candy. My partner is going to be a police man so he may arrest me because I will not were [sic] a coller."

The two hamsters are brought up again in another entry on Dec 4 and described in more detail:

"Me and Ryan got new hamsters. My hamster is a teddy hamster or a golden hamster. Ryan's hamster is mixed between the two of them. My hamster is named Skippy. Ryan's is named Rick. I will be having Skippy's birthday in about 160 days. Skippy is older than Rick but those are when we got them. They are still zero years old. They use to like eachother but they fight eachother now."

On May 4, 2001, he writes a letter to girl named 'Calylah' where he mentions Skippy at the beginning:

"Dear Calylah, My favorite color is silver. My favorite animals are hamsters, mice, rats, gerbals and any other small furry animals. I have one pet. It is a hamster. My hamter's name is Skippy. He is white on his belly, brown on the back and face, has black beedy eyes, and sharp nails."

On Sept 2, 2003, an 11 year-old Adam writes a letter to a teacher (I'm assuming) named Mrs. Strait for a school assignment, where he talks about his new pet hamsters:

"I have one hamster in my house, and two at my dad's apartment. The one in my house is a Panda Hamster, so I named it Panda. It is much larger than my last hamster. The other two are Dwarf Hamsters. Dwarf Hamsters are the only hamsters in general that can live together, probably because they are so small. Their names are Chibi and Cheeks."

Dear Santa,

I like the Pokémon cards you sent me and I would like it if you sent me more this year. Can it be first addition [sic]?

P.S. If you want to you could send them now, and can you leave something for Rick and Skippy this Christmas?
