Paleo Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Cookies

Cookies without flour, butter, and salt added? You've got it! Also a sneaky way to give your kid some beans without him knowing! Ha!

Paleo Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Cookies

Ingredients

1¼ cups canned chickpeas, well-rinsed and patted dry with a paper towel
2 tsp vanilla extract
½ cup + 2 tbsp peanut butter (sun butter or almond butter would work as well!)
¼ cup honey (agave or maple syrup would also work!)
1 tsp baking powder
½ cup chocolate chips (or extra if you're a chocolate freak like me haha!)

Directions: 
1. Preheat oven to 375 Degrees. Blend chickpeas, vanilla, peanut butter, honey, and baking powder in food processor. 

2. Stir in chocolate chips. 

3. Drop 1 1/2" balls on cookie sheet. Baking for 10 minutes. They will not do alot of rising, if you want them to have a more "cookie" like shape simply press down the ball a little before baking. 

4. Enjoy with a big glass of milk!

A few notes:
**I used regular peanut butter with mine and they were still a little doughy. Since there is no raw egg we just ate them like that because it tasted like raw cookie dough! :) But if you want it a little less doughy and a little less oily, use natural peanut butter!
**Since we enjoyed them doughy, I'm going to make then a little smaller and coat them in melted dark chocolate next time! It will be a little truffle like treat!
