(No Sugar!) Cookie Dough Dip

No flour, no sugar, no oil. Cookie Dough Dip! Made this last night and its so good! Can’t tell it doesn’t have sugar and it’s made with healthy ingredients. Next time I’m adding nuts 🙂

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups chickpeas or white beans (1 can, drained) (250g after draining)
• heaping 1/8 tsp salt
• heaping 1/8 tsp baking soda
• 1 tbsp + 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
• 1/4 cup nut butter of choice (If you use peanut butter, some people say it has a slight “pb cookie dough” taste, so you can sub oil if you don’t want that)
• 1 and 1/4 cups pitted dates (I used SunMaid, from a regular grocery store)
• 1/3 cup chocolate chips OR Sugar Free Chocolate Chips
• 2 tbsp oats or almond flour, optional
• milk of choice as needed, depending on the consistency you want (I used a few tbsp)

Instructions

1. In a bowl, cover the dates with 1/2 cup water. Let this sit for at least 8 hours. 
2. Then add all ingredients (including the dates’ soaking liquid), except chocolate chips, to a food processor (for best results, not a blender) and process until very smooth.
3.  This can be served as a dessert dip, as a spread (maybe in between apple slices or crackers?), eaten with a spoon, mixed into oatmeal, stuffed into cupcakes, or even used to top pancakes!
