With food, there’s nothing like the “real thing.” No shade to healthy ice creams and pasta alternatives, but it’s only natural to compare them to rich, full-fat ice cream and traditional noodles, and, more often than not, the imposters just don’t measure up. (
Edible Cookie Dough for One
Makes: 1 serving edible cookie dough
Ingredients:
Directions:
- In a medium-sized bowl, combine tahini, vanilla, maple syrup, and coconut oil, and whisk together until combined. Add oat flour, and salt. Using a spoon, mix wet and dry ingredients until fully incorporated. Dough should look soft and glossy.
- Refrigerate for 1 hour to allow the dough to thicken. After chilling, add chocolate chips to dough and stir well to incorporate.
- Scoop dough into a small bowl or ramekin and enjoy immediately or store in the fridge until ready to eat.
*The tahini or cashew butter should be on the drippy side. Make sure to give it a good stir and avoid using product that has thickened up at the bottom of an old tub.
**Melt the coconut oil on low heat on a stove, turn off the heat, and let cool for 10-15 minutes. This will allow the oil to cool off a bit without re-solidifying.
