raw cookie dough

I know for a fact that I'm not the only person in the world who loves raw cookie dough.  Imagine you could eat raw cookie dough and not worry about eating raw eggs or gain 20 pounds in one sitting.  Sound good?
Imagine that your raw cookie dough is at least vaguely healthy and full of protein.  Sweet.
Enter in the raw cookie dough!

Focus on the picture and not the ingredients.  I'd seen a few similar recipes around, but when I tried them I thought the proportions tasted a bit off.  This version makes the flavors blend together better and taste more like real cookie dough.

• garbanzo beans
• peanut butter
• honey
• chocolate chips

That's it!  Only four ingredients.  I know it sound like a really strange flavor combination, but it is indeed yummy.  The garbanzo beans can't be tasted, and the peanut butter blends right in but adds creaminess.  Jeff is only a fan of peanut butter in a sandwich, and even he gave this a thumbs up.
