Grain-Free Chickpea Chocolate Chip Cookies
I am not a sweets sort of person, but I do love a good chocolate chip cookie. Around Thanksgiving time I was at a dinner where they had a dessert made out of chickpeas. I am relatively new to the gluten free baking scene and I was shocked chickpeas could be used for anything other than hummus, salads or curry. Later that week I decided to create a chickpea cookie. Not just any cookie, but a grain-free chickpea chocolate chip cookie. My first batch was a total soupy fail, but I was determined to figure it out. Five tries later and I created what I believe to be the perfect grain-free chocolate chip cookie.
It is moist like a cookie, it is chewy, it pulls apart like a cookie and when refrigerated it is still soft. It has a subtle sweetness, and once you eat one you better put the rest away because they are that yummy. They are so good that my littlest one was caught red handed with both hands deep within the batter, shoveling it in as fast as she could!
