Someone at work brought it in, and I can officially say it is delicious! Tastes nearly like cookie dough :) And don't believe the recipe when it says you can't bake it. Well -- not in ball/cookie form, but in skillet form it is entirely possible!

Highly recommend.

    You said it was delicious, but you didn't say if it mimics the taste and texture ...

    ... Inquiring minds want to know.

    It appears to have 1500 calories in 1.5 cups of dough! (Six servings at 250 calories each.) I think that looks way too high - it should be less calorie-dense than hummus. Has anyone run it through a recipe builder?

    I thought this recipe was made to eat it by the tablespoon normally?

    I've tried a few variations of the recipe & while it tastes pretty good it still isn't exactly cookie dough.

    A serving would be about 1/4 cup, so 4 tablespoons.

    I ran it through the recipe builder, and sure enough, ~1200 calories for a batch and 250 calories per 1/4C. Ben & Jerry's has about 160 calories per 1/4C for the peanut buttery flavors.

    Mimics being the operative word here. Not exactly the same, but very similar! It tastes very similar cooked, and has a creamy texture. Smoother than what it's mimicking

    In regards to calorie count, I'm sure there are a lot of recipes without any peanut butter in them, i.e. less calories.

    My coworker nixed the PB in her recipe -- nut allergies in my office!

    I make these a lot, but I use raw honey, add a little water to make them into mini-bars and freeze them individually so I don't overeat.

    Great for dessert and it's really good!

    I just modified: I used the chickpeas, 2 scoops of vanilla protein powder and the peanut butter. As I was blending it, I thought about PB2...next time I will try that to cut the fat, then add some almond milk to balance the creaminess. I ate 2 TBS on a graham cracker for about 125 calories and 7 g protein. 5 g of Fat, but it's mostly the "good kinds" (unsaturated). My sweet tooth is satisfied and the fat helped me feel satiated. Thanks OP for sharing this!
