Cookie Dough Dip



Stop.


Hold the show.


This dip is seriously scrumptious.  And it's way healthier than scooping out spoonfuls of regular cookie dough. (Not that I do that.) (Every single time I make cookies.)  And this dip is easier and faster to make too!


(And, psst - wanna know a secret?  Check out the ingredient list below.  You won't believe your eyeballs.  And then you'll accuse me of lying about how delicious this dip is.  But I promise you.  I cross my heart and pinky swear that it's super duper amazingly delicious.  I promise.)

Cookie Dough Dip
adapted from Chocolate Covered Katie

1 can chickpeas, rinsed and drained (250g)
pinch salt
scant 1/4 tsp. baking soda
2 tsp. vanilla extract
1/4 c. nut butter (if you use peanut butter, it’ll have a very-slight “pb cookie dough” taste)
1/2 c. brown sugar
1/2 c. semisweet chocolate chips, mini size is best
3 Tbsp. oats (or flaxmeal)
1-4 Tbsp. milk/nondairy milk (start with 1 Tbsp., and add more as needed)

Add all ingredients (except for chocolate chips) to a blender or food processor, and blend until very smooth. Then stir in the chocolate chips.

Oatmeal Raisin variation:  Use almond butter instead of peanut butter and add 1/4 tsp. cinnamon.  Swap raisins for the chocolate chips.

  1. I saw the picture and thought "this has to be the most decadent thing I've seen so far on this blog". But then you're right I read the ingredient list. Chickpeas? This warrants a foray into the kitchen to confirm the deliciousness.

  2. Chick peas? I've never been able to get behind hummus but strangely want to give this a try. It's weird too because I substitute white beans for chick peas in every recipe. It looks super yummy.

  3. I saw this recipe and thought, "I must have this now." I had cooked cannellini beans in the fridge, so I whipped up a batch. HEAVENLY! I even made a second batch with minor adjustments that same day. I wrote a post about it on my blog. Thanks so much for sharing!! http://www.livingcrunchy.com/2011/12/guilt-free-cookie-dough-dip/
