Put this on your list of things to try

I saw this recipe on pintrest and knew it had to be too good to be true.  Cookie Dough Dip made from chickpeas?  Gross.  But I had extra peas today and had a craving for cookies (no wheat>(  So I gave it a try.  Whoa!  Actually Roberts words were, “Oh, wow!”

Here is the basic version but you should read her page as she has a bunch of other info.  Off to lick the bowl=)

 

Cookie Dough Dip

Inspired by this awesome recipe.

  • 1 1/2 cups chickpeas or white beans (1 can, drained) (250g)
  • 1/8 tsp plus 1/16 tsp salt
  • tiny bit over 1/8 tsp baking soda
  • 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup nut butter (You can get away with using only 3 T. If you use peanut butter, it’ll have a very-slight “pb cookie dough” taste, so if you don’t want this, you can sub oil.)
  • up to 1/4 cup milk of choice (Start with 1 T, and add more as needed)
  • Sweetener (see note below, for amount)
  • 1/3 cup chocolate chips or Sugar-Free Chocolate Chips
  • 2 to 3 T oats (or flaxmeal) (You can omit, but also omit the milk if you do)

Add all ingredients (except for chocolate chips) to a good food processor (not blender), and blend until very smooth. Then mix in the chocolate chips.

  1. I don't think I'll get to these before the baby, but I definitely will put it on my list for after. Cookie dough is a favorite here.
