I tried this today (after having it pinned on Pinterest for almost a year) using my experiences with bean brownies, I used white beans instead because they have a less distinct flavor. I also added 1tbs of brown sugar. I just read the cinnamon suggestion and think I will go add it!

My grandsons would love this Chocolate Chip cookie dough recipe! Looks easy enough for them to help.

OMG, I just made this! I had the chick peas in the pantry for awhile, putting off doing something with them, because I don’t really like them. I realized I had everything except the almond milk and flax seeds, but I saw in the comments that someone subbed oats, which I had. I used 1% milk and a dash of almond extract. I’ll be honest, I used a little more honey, probably 3T, and probably doubled the chips…cause I’m weak like that with the chocolate. :)

Tried to get the older kid to try it, but it was before i added the chips. I was sure he’d like it. He didn’t. “Eww, that’s disgusting!” I’m going to give him a little on a graham cracker and see what he thinks.

Thanks for the recipe!

Made it today! I used soy milk, cinnamon, nutmeg and carob chips. It was deeeelish! BUT you can definitely taste a back note of garbanzos so I would suggest adding a bit more sweetner and PB. My children and I at it with granny smith apple :)

I think this is INCREDIBLE. I’m running a marathon this year and was searching the web for healthy dessert recipes and happened to stumble upon your site. I will make this recipe again and again – I don’t even think you need anything to dip in it – it’s amazing all on it’s own! Thanks for sharing such a delicious idea…looking forward to trying out some of your other recipes!

Sorry you didn’t like it. I’m a still a huge fan of it… dessert hummus is probably a better name. :)

Just made it……tasted COMPLETELY of chickpeas :( it definitely did not resemble the taste of cookie dough at all. I added sweetener also and it didn’t help much. Guess I’ll be sticking with normal cookie dough..

This looks soo good and with the comments about subbing oats for flaxseed has given me a lot of ideas like oatmeal raisin type with the usual spices, snickerdoodles and even using different kinds of nut butters, etc. Thanks so much for sharing

Posted my “review” on Facebook then decided to post here as well! My 23 month old twins aren’t real big meat eaters so trying to incorporate more protein can be challenging. Fear no more. Not only did they highjack the colander filled with rinsed garbanzo’s they demanded spoons for shoveling the final product! :) I used Whole Foods sweetened almond milk (closer to half cup), added a splash of olive oil and followed the recipe as is. This is a keeper!!

Don’t be mental…don’t have an expectation…just try it and appreciate it for what it is! :)

I used oats instead of the flaxseed on mine and it seems mine is a tad on the runny side. I’ve added more oats and I’m now getting an oatmeal choc chip cookie dough feel, which is pretty dang awesome! Thanks so much for this, totally diggin’ it!!

I made this today and loved it!! My husband liked it too but only bc I didnt tell him what it actually was:) I did add an extra T of PB and cocoa powder to make it chocolate peanut butter “cookie dough” and was very pleased. I cant stay out of it! Thanks for the great idea!

FINALLY tried this – and considering I suggested YOU make it – it certainly took me long enough!

I loved it! I was hungry after work and resisted snacking and decided to make this – I smeared some on one graham cracker and it was sooooo good! It is nutty, slightly sweet – and then a burst of chocolate but not too much!

I am excited because after just one graham cracker – I was sweet-satisfied!

I am excited to have my family try it – and I will definately be bringing it to work tomorrow for a nice afternoon treat.

:O) Thanks Roni – again…

Sorry you didn’t like it. In my opinion the chips are what make it! Them mixed with the texture of the beans was just perfect and reminiscent of cookie dough for me. Regular hummus doesn’t have that nutty flavor.

Thanks for trying it adding your opinion!

Just tried making this. I think it is lacking taste. And I upped the PB and honey. I think it could be really interesting with banana mixed in. But shouldn’t be marketed as a cookie dough. My advice is skip the chocolate chips and use as a dip on celery. But might as well just make your own hummus instead?

Going to have to give this recipe a C.

RONI- YES!!! hahaha, exactly what I was talking about! Thank you! You are truly amazing! :)

I bought dessert hummus once and it was awful so I was a little resistant to make this, but this is sooooo good! I’m thinking I might use it as a PB sub for sandwiches. Its about 1/2 the points of PB. Yummy!

Hey Roni,
I have tried dessert recipes with beans before, and I always taste the beans…but I REALLY wanted to like this recipe. Know what “hid” the bean taste this time? I added cinnamon- totally worked! It went from “good, in a beany sort of way” to “super yummy”! Between the honey and cinnamon, I absolutely do not taste beans. My husband tried it and had absolutely no clue that there were beans involved. Sweet!

Oh my gosh!! This is wonderful-I thought it was even better the next day!!!! Those that are hesitant – give it a try you will be amazed.
I am going to try the Guactuna Salad this weekend and I have made the one of the muffin receipes also and was very pleased. Looking forward to trying more of these great ideas!

Just made this and OH MY WORD. I was tempted to just grab a spoon and eat the whole bowl, but I had to share with the husband. :)

Rachel – Some people replace it with ground oats or you could just up the PB.

@Rachel, i subsituted [dry] steel cut oats for the flax since i didnt have any on hand! It turned out great! Im sure rolled oats would be fine too..

By: Rachel

Rachel — Mon, 10 Oct 2011 17:34:59 +0000

This looks sooo good. Can I leave out the flax seed, or substitute something for it? Can’t wait to try this!

Thanks, Cindy! That’s a a great idea to use vanilla wafers.

I’m still debating about making this. It sounds delicious, but I have a terrible time with portion control with anything that contains chocolate.

This was delicious… I used more sweetner than Roni did and you really can’t taste the chick peas at all. The chocolate also helps to mask them. I dipped Nilla Wafers since we had them on hand! Very very good… like many others, I’m glad that Roni was the guinea pig for this one… sometimes I hesitate to try vegan fare because my palette isn’t used to the lack of fats which are normally present in milk, eggs and butter.
