Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough?? Are you sure?? It
certainly looks like it. Well, I came across this fabulous website,
http://chocolatecoveredkatie.com/. She has some yummy looking and HEALTHY dessert options. I tried the above "cookie dough" recipe and made it for my girls. They loved it and it was healthy for them. Check out these recipes, I know I will be making more of her recipes!
**Warning--I will not be held responsible for excessive drooling**
This dip is high in protein, gluten-free, and it can even be sugar-free!
Cookie Dough Dip
Inspired by
this awesome recipe.
- 1 1/2 cups chickpeas (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.

Sugar-Free Version.
Sweetener Notes: I used 2/3 cup brown sugar when I first made this for the party. Liquid sweeteners (agave, maple, etc.) are fine as well, as is evaporated cane juice. You can
easily get away with less sugar– some people will be perfectly fine with just 3 T for the whole recipe! And if you don’t want any sugar, be sure to check out the “no-sugar” version linked above. (You can also use stevia, if you like the taste of stevia-sweetened desserts. Try 2-3 packets of NuNaturals stevia, and add more sweetener if needed. I wouldn’t recommend serving an all-stevia version to party guests, though.)
