Healthy Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough
So how was everyone's Christmas? Are we all as stuffed as I am?
As I am recovering from my food comas for the past few days, I still manage to be extremely hungry at all times of the day. Maybe it's because of all the leftovers, just begging me to eat them. But as they say, tis the season to be merry. And if merry = eating all the time, then I'm rocking being merry.
This Christmas I tried, I really tried to resist the sweets. Chocolate? Just say no! Sour keys? Hmm..does that count as a sweet if it has the word sour in it? Maybe I'll take a couple. But the cookies everywhere, how can you resist??
Even now, after all the festivities are over, I'm still eyeing those cookies. Just had one for breakfast. What's wrong with me?
Okay, so in my efforts to wean myself from cookies, I'm making a healthy (er) cookie. You know, a detox cookie after all the butter and sugar goodness I've been ingesting.
So as a way of getting a little healthier while satisfying that lingering cookie craving, make yourself some of these. You won't regret it.

This looks so gooey and delicious! I'm supposed to be craving vegetables right now, right? But I want one of these but since they're healthy, it's perfect! Happy New Year!
Looks very yummy!
Loved that you used chickpeas instead of flour. What a great idea!
I'm always down with healthy cookies!
I didn't know that healthy and chocolate chips and peanut butter all went together in the same sentence. Good one, Cathleen!
Detox cookie! I love it. Such a great concept!
These are perfect for New Years...a healthy cookie. I love that.
Definitely on my to make list! They look so inviting!
I`m still recovering as well! I was basically eating 24/7. Haha! These sound so tempting. Who can resist the peanut butter and chocolate combo?
It's so strange to be recovering from a food coma, but also still super hungry, right? That's been happening to me the last few days too! haha.
Love this healthy alternative! It looks SO tasty, but not too guilt-inducing. =)
Merry can mean just about anything. I support your definition!
I'm always looking for healthy alternatives, so I will definitely try this one. Plus, I love both chickpeas and chocolate. 🙂
