Most raw cookie dough isn't safe to eat, but this recipe for vegan edible cookie dough is designed to be eaten raw. Canned chickpeas and nut butter form the base of this dough, making it healthy too! In this recipe, we roll the dough into little bite-size balls, perfect for snacking. Keep a stash in your freezer for a healthy treat.

Love these!! Honestly, I thought I'd try them and throw the recipe away. However, my kids and I can't stop eating them. They taste just like edible cookie dough and are very simple to make. My dough wouldn't get smooth enough so I just added a touch of water until it had the right consistency. You can not even taste the chickpeas. I am very impressed and will be making these often

I love these! I added some pecans. I would like even more texture - like oatmeal cookies - and will try quinoa and oats mixed in next time.
