Raw Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Balls
40aprons.com/raw-chocolate-chip-cookie-dough-balls/A healthy take on raw chocolate chip cookie dough, rolled into convenient little balls for a quick pop of energy or one massive inhalation. I don't judge.
Recipe Makes (Approximate): pieces
Ingredients
- ⅔ c raw cashews
- ⅓ c raw oats
- 2 Tbsp Agave
- 1 Tbsp Maple Syrup ((Omit and use Agave to preserve true Raw Status if you care))
- 1 Tsp Vanilla Extract
- ¼ c Chocolate Chips ((see note for raw))
Instructions
- In a blender, preferably a high-speed blender like a Vitamix, blend cashews and oats until they become a fine powder. Don't overblend; this mixture will become cashew butter quickly.
- Add the agave, maple, vanilla and blend until incorporated. Be careful to just blend in short bursts and only until combined; don't over-process.
- Stir in chocolate chips by hand.
- Form into small balls by rolling between your palms. If dough becomes too sticky to work with, chill in the fridge or freezer until a bit firmer. Keep in the fridge or freezer.
Recipe Notes
To keep these truly raw, mix 2 tablespoons raw cocoa powder and 1 tablespoon agave, a dash of vanilla extract, whisk together and blend in the blender/food processor. Spread into a thin layer on wax or parchment paper and freeze. Take frozen chocolate off parchment and break into pieces, then use as your raw "chips"
