(from beanarm’s recipe box)

Source: http://www.loveveggiesandyoga.com/2009/10/raw-vegan-chocolate-chip-cookie-dough.html

Ingredients

  • 2/3 c raw cashews
  • 1/3 c oats
  • 2 Tbsp Agave
  • 1 Tbsp Maple Syrup (Omit and use Agave to preserve true Raw Status if you care)
  • 1 Tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 1/4 c Chocolate Chips (or to preserve true raw status, take 2 Tbsp Raw Cocoa Powder and add 1 Tbsp Agave, optional dash of vanilla extract, whisk and blend. Spread into a thin layer on wax or parchment paper, freeze. Take frozen chocolate off parchment and crum
  • Recipe Yields: Approximately 17 Cookie Dough Balls

Directions

  1. Blend:After you have your Oat-n-Cashew Flour…

  2. …To it Add the Agave, Maple, & Vanilla Extract

  3. Blend Again

  4. Tip for Vita-Mix Users: You know you have “The Right Consistency” of Dough when the dough starts to ball up like a tennis ball and bangs around from side to side in the canister. I have learned this through trial and error and wanted to pass along my wisdom. Once you see The Ball (what I am talking about is in the above photo) start whipping around, Stop Blending. You have reached Perfect Dough Consistency Status.

  5. Add the Chocolate Chips (or the Raw Chocolate Chips like I told you how to make)

  6. Either Stir them in By Hand, of a 5 Second Blend in the VitaCookie (or Food Processor)

  7. Transfer Dough Blob to plate or working surface. Tip: If for some reason your dough was too sticky, gummy, runny, or unworkable, refrigerate for a half hour and you should be back in business.
