    Ive used CCK's cookie dough recipe. I thought it was just above mediocre for the average taste bud...for my tastebuds it was excellent.

    I have been meaning to try this since I saw it on CCK's site- great to hear that they worked well for you. I might try using agave, which she uses for the cookie dough dip that is "related" to the blondies:

    I will need to try these. I liked her chocolate chip cookie dough dip and 3-ingredient chocolate bars. The bars are really, really good. Ingredients are coconut oil, agave and unsweetened cocoa powder.

    Here's a snapshot. I just finished eating 7 of the 9 of them.

    I subbed the PB for: 4 Tbsp PB2 and 4 Tbsp Unsweetened Applesauce
    I subbed 12 Tbsp Granulated Splenda instead of all brown sugar. 4 /12 to make the full cup the recipe called for
    I reduced Chocolate Chips by half
    I added 1/4 cup chopped walnuts

    Macros (9 squares in an 8x8 pan) came out too: 117 calories 5g protein 22g carbs 4g fat 4g fiber

    My thoughts: Yep, it tastes like sweetened garbanzo beans. They weren't bad but nothing to write home about. The recipe could use additional leavening (more baking powder and likely some egg white - which will also add some protein) and I feel it is versatile enough to withstand a scoop of protein - again upping the protein content. To compensate, I would add a small amount of liquid...anything will work, water, milk, almond milk, sweetened condensed milk - lol; to keep the ratio of wet to dry the same.

    bump for later! sounds awesome. i've heard that using chickpeas and other kind of light-tasting beans can be substituted in cookie recipes, but I haven't tried it yet!

    They look fantastic! Am going to give them a go! (and ... great idea re: altering them more to make breakfast bars - sounds like a winner!)
