Are you one of those people that eats half of the dough while making cookies before even baking them?
I’m with you! But today we are not making actual cookies but cookie dough that is supposed to be eaten raw.
These cookie dough balls really taste like cookie dough. And not even like a healthy version of it, it’s like the real thing. The taste of it somehow reminds me of coffee even though there’s no coffee in these. I think it’s the combination of the three ingredients that forms that flavour. Other than that, they taste a lot like chocolate chip cookies.
The main ingredient in these are chickpeas. But wait before you judge. It might sound weird to you, I was sceptical too before trying it. The other two ingredients in this cookie dough are dates and dark chocolate.
Dates are, as we all know, the world’s best natural sweetener. They work perfectly in all recipes and this one is no exception.
We all know chocolate is a huge friend of mine. If you scroll down my blog, every second recipe will include chocolate. I for a long time used to think something can’t be healthy if it includes chocolate. But I was so wrong! While yes, dark chocolate is still not the healthiest but it’s not the worst either, cacao on the other side is healthy. It’s the purest form of chocolate and is way less processed than actual chocolate.
Just one last note before we get to the recipe – do not try baking these cookies. This cookie dough is designed to be eaten raw, so don’t try changing it into baked cookies. There’s several other recipes for that out there.

Very interesting recipe! I am a fan of all 3 ingredients...
Peeling chickpea is hard work tho... but I know its smoother :)

Thank you!! I agree with you on this one, it takes quite a lot of time.. It's also good without peeling them, just not as smooth as you wrote! Have a nice day!

Chickpeas is the best for cookie dough! Nobody would know it's there unless you tell them :) What a great idea to take the peel off! I do it for hummus and I can say it's much better like this - somehow smoother. Thank you for sharing another amazing recipe!

So true! My family tried them and they had no idea it had chickpeas in until I told them. Chickpeas are such a magical ingredient! Yes, peeling them makes the cookie dough a lot smoother and therefor a lot tastier, kinda the same as with hummus. Thank you for you comment! Have a nice day!

I've been wanting to make these for so long, I've heard so many people praising these, but I'm a bit skeptical... I mean, how can you make cookie dough out of chickpeas? 😅 However, I'm really tempted to try them out!

I was the same before I gave them a try haha! It sounds insane, but believe me, you can't taste the chickpeas at all. You should give them a try!

Great idea! And I wouldn't have thought (bothered?) to take the skins off the chickpeas. Is there an easy and efficient way of doing this?

You can leave the skins on but keep in mind the cookie dough won't be as smooth and creamy and the taste might vary a bit but I think it should be fine. Let me know how it went if you decide to give it a go!

I will @nina.ser. Do you just skin them one by one then? No tricks?

You can remove them one by one or use the method presented in this video, which I find is very time saving :)
