Grain-Free Double Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookie Dough Bites

Unlike its long name, these cookies are made of a few simple, and healthy ingredients. No oil, no sugar, no flour, and no eggs. They taste delicious, satisfy a chocolate craving, and even provide some healthy protein. Luke isn't a fan of the peanut butter flavor, but I can't stop eating them until they are gone.

Grain-Free Double Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookie Dough Bites

Ingredients:

1 can chickpeas, well-rinsed

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

1/2 cup + 2 tablespoons natural peanut butter, SunButter or almond butter

1/4 cup honey or agave

2 tablespoons cocoa powder

1 teaspoon baking powder

A pinch of salt if your peanut butter doesn't have salt in it

1/2 cup chocolate chips

Directions:

Preheat your oven to 350°F. Combine all the ingredients, except for the chocolate chips, in a food processor and process until very smooth. Put in the chocolate chips and stir it if you can, or pulse it once or twice. The mixture will be very thick and sticky. Use a small cookie scoop and scoop onto a cookie sheet with parchment. They don't rise very much so fill the cookie sheet right up. Bake for about 10 minutes. Let them sit for a minute before trying to remove from the cookie sheet, then cool on wax paper.
