Healthy Nutella Cookie Dough
Cookie dough spiked with Nutella. That's also guilt-free. It's sweet, it's fudgy, it's chocolatey, it's OH, SO, GOOD.
Ingredients
- one 15oz can Black Beans (drained and rinsed well!**)
- 132g (½ cup) Homemade Nutella
- ¼ cup Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
- ½ tsp Liquid Stevia Extract
- 64g (2 scoops) Unflavored Whey Protein Powder
- 20g (¼ cup) Unsweetened Natural Cocoa Powder
- 7 packets Natural Sweetener (stevia, Truvia, etc.)
- pinch of Salt
- 144g (1½ cups) Old Fashioned Rolled Oats
- ⅓ cup Mini Dark Chocolate Chips (optional)
Instructions
- In a blender (I used my NutriBullet), add the beans, Nutella, almond milk, vanilla extract, and stevia extract. Blend until completely smooth, scraping down the sides of the blender if necessary.
- In a large bowl, stir together the protein powder, cocoa powder, sweetener, and salt. Scrape the blended bean mixture on top and stir together until completely combined.
- Fold in the oats (and optional chocolate chips, if using).
- Cover with plastic wrap, refrigerate overnight, and serve the next day for the cookie dough texture, but you can totally eat some now because that's the "true" cookie dough-eating experience.
Recipe Notes
**After draining and rinsing, the beans should measure out as ~1½ cups. Mine weighed 240g.
