Delicious cookies

No wheat, no gluten, no white sugar, no dairy.
High protein, reduced carbs so much lower glycaemic load than usual cookies.

These cookies are tasty and chewy and ridiculously to make.

Tin of chick peas (whole tin provides a bit too much for the recipe so take out a couple of tablespoons)
2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
165g peanut butter (I use half and half with almond butter)
80g honey or agave syrup (I use only 70g which still taste sweet enough)
1 teaspoon baking powder
salt if desired (only if your peanut butter is salt free)
90g choc chips (you can chop up some Green and Blacks 72% cooking choc)

Combine all ingredients, apart from chocolate, in a food processor. (I use a hand held one). Results in a very thick sticky mixture. Stir in the choc chips and make into 14 balls. Put on a baking sheet and squash tops to flatten slightly. Bake at 175 C for 10mins.

I am savouring my second one now with a cup of decaf coffee - decadence!
