Healthy Cookie Dough Dip Recipe

This is RJ from VirtuousGirlhood.com. Marianna was nice enough to let me guest post today and I wanted to share this easy and healthy cookie dough dip recipe with you all!

I am currently on a sugarless diet. (sort of) and I saw a recipe for cookie dough dip. I died. I love cookie dough, but I was not about to eat a 600 calorie sugar laden dip.

There are lots of recipes for a healthy cookie dough dip, but all of them call for ingredients that I didn’t have and they were not easy. So I revamped several of the recipes, mushed them all together, and came up with this! It’s oh-so easy and can be made within five minutes. The best part? It tastes exactly like cookie dough.



Ingredients
2 cups of chick peas (You can buy a can in the store. Just be sure to drain them.)
1/2 tsp. of salt
1/2 cup of chocolate chips
2 tsp. of vanilla
3 TBSP of sugar
2 TBSP of coconut oil (or any oil)
2 TBSP of milk

Directions
Mix everything together in a food processor. Or pulse in a blender. Everything, BUT the chocolate chips. You want to pulse it until everything is really smooth. When you finish just add chocolate chips and serve!



This tastes exactly like cookie dough dip. No one will know any different. (If you are like me then you can serve it to your friends, then watch them groan about the calories and laugh your head off when you tell them it’s healthy!

I made this for my family and they ate it up. They didn’t believe me that it was healthy until I showed them the chick peas. You can enjoy this with any sort of cracker or fresh fruit.
