Chickpea Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough

I am in LOVE with this recipe! (Thanks Pinterest) But as always, I had to add my own twist...I eat this without feeling guilty & even my husband enjoys it!

Ingredients:

(1) can garbanzo beans (chickpeas)

1/3 cup almond flour

1/4 cup Chocolate Sea Salt Almond Butter

1/4 cup Runamok Bourbon Barrel Maple Syrup

1 teaspoon Vanilla or Almond Extract

Sea salt, to taste

Chocolate chips (I like dark chocolate)

Making the cookie dough:

1. Place all the ingredients (minus the chocolate chips) in a food processor & blend until completely mixed together & creamy.

2. Add the chocolate chips

3. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours (you can eat it right away but refrigerating creates a better texture)

***UPDATE: I experimented by swapping Vanilla for Almond Extract & I would highly recommend!
