    No sugar added cookie dough dip made with chickpeas and dates, full of almond and coconut flavor

    Coconut Almond Cookie Dough Dip from Living Well Kitchen

    It's not too coconut-y and it has the perfect amount of almond flavor.

    I really love almond extract because it gives this nice burst of sweet flavor without having to add tons of sugar.

    A little bottle of pure almond extract will last you a while because you only need a tiny amount in most recipes to give it flavor.

    Be careful though because it's not like vanilla extract - more is not better. You don't want to have an overwhelming almond flavor. Just stick to the measurement of almond extract a recipe calls for and you'll be good.

    Coconut Almond Cookie Dough Dip2

    This is delicious when served with apple or pear slices. Or just eat it with a spoon.

    If you're not into coconut or almonds or either, you can always make this Sugar Cookie Version which will absolutely rock your socks off!

    Ingredients

    • 1 cup pitted dates about 10 whole dates
    • 1 cup very hot water
    • 15 ounce chickpeas washed & drained (about 1 ½ cups)
    • 3 tablespoon almond butter
    • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
    • ¼ teaspoon almond extract
    • ¼ teaspoon salt
    • ⅛ teaspoon baking powder
    • ¼ cup oats regular or quick
    • ¼ cup unsweetened coconut flakes divided

    Instructions

    • Add the dates to a bowl and cover with very hot water. Let sit for 15 minutes.
    • Remove dates from the water. Add the dates and two tablespoons of date-soaking water to the bowl of a food processor. Blend until very smooth {once you add the other ingredients, it will not get any smoother}.
    • Add the chickpeas, almond butter, vanilla extract, almond extract, salt, and baking powder. Blend until completely smooth.
    • Add in oats and 3 tablespoon coconut. Blend until smooth {adding an additional teaspoon or two of water if needed to help blend}.
    • Transfer to a bowl and serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 5 days. Sprinkle with remaining one tablespoon of coconut before serving.
    • Serve with fruit slices {or just eat with a spoon}.

      I definitely need to make this for my kids (and myself too)! Love dips and doughs with garbanzo beans, and this sounds delicious with the coconut, and just a hint of almond extract. Pinning now!
