love-body-spirit: Healthy Chocolate Chip Cookie Pota’Dough Dip! Vegan, Gluten-Free, Bean-free, Soy-free, and optionally Nut-free. Ingredients: 240 grams yellow-skinned cooked potatoes, peeled (approx. 1 & 1/3 cups cooked potato) 6-7 tbsp pure maple syrup*, or to taste 3 tbsp cashew nut butter* 1/2 tbsp pure vanilla extract 1/2 tsp fine grain sea salt, or to taste 1/4-1/3 cups dark chocolate chips 1. Peel and roughly chop the potatoes. Cook the potatoes in a pot of water on the stove-top until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain. 2. In a food processor, immediately add the cooked potatoes (still hot), nut butter, vanilla, and maple syrup.Do not use cold potatoes or the texture will be like mashed potatoes instead of a silky dip. Process until smooth for at least a couple minutes, stopping to scrape down the bowl as necessary. Make sure no clumps remain. You want it super smooth. Adjust sweetness if necessary and add salt to taste. 3. Place mixture in the fridge for a minimum of 30 minutes (preferably an hour) to chill and then stir in the chocolate chips just before serving. Serve the dip with graham crackers, fresh fruit, cookies, cinnamon sugar pita chips, or my favourite way, a spoon. Nutritional info (per tablespoon, makes 25 tbsp, using 1/3 cup chips): 32 cals, 1 gram fat (0 sat fat), 45 grams sodium, 6 grams carbs, 0 grams fibre, 3 grams sugar, 1 gram protein. Tips and Substitution questions: 1) I used yellow-skinned potatoes, however white skinned potatoes might also work. I don’t suggest using red or baking potatoes. 2) You can sub in peanut, almond, or macadamia nut butter if you wish. I love cashew butter because it has a subtle cookie dough flavour. 3) For a nut-free version, you can probably use sweetened sunflower seed butter in place of the nut butter, however please note flavour and colour will change. 4) Feel free to use other liquid sweeteners. 5) You may want more or less sweetener than I used depending on your taste buds. Adjust to taste.
