3 Holiday inspired cookie doughs so reminisce the holiday treats! Vegan, gluten free, high protein, low fat but still thick, creamy and delicious.
You guys… I know I’ve posted these a lot on my instagram and many of you have been asking for the recipes so finally- here it is! 3 of my favourite cookie dough flavour combos. Cookie dough has to be one of my FAVOURITE desserts ever… I ate a lot of it during the holidays when baking cookies (vegan of course). I was feeling a little sick after all the cookie dough so wanted to experiment with a ~healthier~ version using chickpeas and tofu! Naturally high in protein, these cookie dough flavours will have your holiday treat cravings satisfied. Remember to tag me on instagram @lisakitahara if you make it, I love seeing your recreations!
