So it’s official.
I am burned out. After planning a wedding, traveling to Mexico, coming home and having 5 exams and a whole bunch of projects due since getting back (and a whole bunch more I’m working on), I’m exhausted…
My body is screaming at me to relax…
While I don’t have much time to relax right now…. I only have 5 more weeks of school until this semester is done…. then I get 1.5 weeks off until I start a 6 week full time practicum. SO grateful practicum = no assignments or exams!

Anyways, I’m trying hard to keep my head above water, and decided that ooey goey chocolate helps!!
When Tina from Carrots N Cake posted this recipe, I was honestly drooling… They looked SO good!
These are fantastic – they get very caramelly on the bottom!
Without futher adoo……….
“Burned Out Student Cookies”
See the original recipe at Carrots N Cake
My dairy free subs!!
1 cup regular flour
Subbed 2 TBSP coconut oil for the butter.
Subbed 2 chia eggs for the 2 regular eggs (2tbsp + 8 tbsp water) – let sit while combining other ingredients so the chia seeds can soak up the water!!
Instead of 2 cups goodies, I only added 1 cup in total!
Served with a tall glass of chilled almond milk
I’m just going to plug away at the next 5 weeks… but I’m feeling hopeful that everything will be ok… especially when I saw these…
No better feeling in the world than knowing icky weather is on it’s way out… and SPRING is on it’s way!!
What are your ways to de-stress? AND/OR how do you deal with mental exhaustion? I need some good tips!
