No need for fat pants!

After some yummy treats this week we need to have something that is healthy and will not make us grab those fat pants!   So today I am posting  Cookie Dough Dip.   I know what you are thinking.  That can't possibly be healthy.  But it is.  There is a secret ingredient that makes it healthy.   Chickpeas.

Here is the recipe:

Cookie Dough Dip

Recipe courtesy of chocolatecoveredkatie.com

• 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 nondairy milk (Start with 1 T, and add more as needed)
• Sweetener (see note below, for amount)
• 1/3 cup 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 blender or food processor, and blend until very smooth. Then mix in the chocolate chips.

I made two batches.  One with the peanut butter/biscotti butter and one with oil.  The one on the left is made with oil and not as firm.  Michael loved both of them which says a lot!  He is one picky eater!  Of course both kids liked them but Kyra is not a fan of peanut butter so the second batch was made for her.  

Hope you enjoy it!
