Posted by: Angela Leeds In: *LGS Daily Recipe|Desserts|Great Raw Pot Luck Recipes|RAW CHOCOLATE
Want a chocolate chip cookie dough recipe that’s actually GOOD for you? This is it! With raw cacao being king of antioxidants, hemp seeds offering a perfect balance of essential fatty acids (EFAs), the rich minerals and cholesterol-lowering properties of macadamia nuts, the nutritional powerhouse of pine nuts, and the enzymes and healing power of raw honey, tucking into this chocolate chip cookie dough shouldn’t create the guilt you felt the last time you made some Tollhouse and ate more than you baked!

A Brilliant Healthy Snack…
… for kids, for anyone who gets cravings for chocolate and desserts, and for someone trying to go 100% raw and needing bits of heavier foods to feel satisfied.
In addition, because this recipe is naturally very rich, it’s unlikely that you’ll overeat these treats. A couple with a cup of tea or your coffee break will really satisfy. You can even fashion these into homemade energy bars to take with you on the road for after your workout or when you’re traveling!
I was tickled that this recipe passed muster with my 19-year old son. Families should be able to get a lot of mileage out of this recipe as a basis for all kinds of treats for the kids.

A Word About Cacao Nibs
Make sure you use good quality cacao nibs in this recipe. Lesser quality will be bitter, too hard, less sweet, and acidic on the tongue. A good quality cacao nib will be more delicate, sweetish, and truly a delectable raw chip.
