It has been so wonderful to see your enthusiasm and dedication to students and to your craft over the years. It has been incredibly inspiring! Your sense of humor and thoughtfulness will be truly missed! I’m still bummed I never got to be a “Chopped” judge - but it’s those creative activities and your emphasis on real life skills and connections that make you such a wonderful teacher and mentor to our students. We will all miss you dearly, but I hope you enjoy your retirement! - Robynne

Chickpea Cookie Dough Ingredients & Steps Ingredients

1 ½ cups cooked Chickpeas* ¼ cup Nut or Seed Butter* 1 tsp Vanilla Extract 3 tbsp Oat Flour or ¼ cup Almond Flour 2 tbsp Maple Syrup*, plus more to taste ¼ cup Dairy-Free Chocolate Chips (or other add-ins of choice) ½ tsp Salt Instructions Add all ingredients, except for the chocolate chips, to a high-speed blender or food processor. Process until a thick, even dough forms, scraping the sides of your device as necessary. Keep in mind that the dough will thicken even more after the flour absorbs some of the liquid and after it sits in the fridge. Taste the dough and add more sweetener, if desired. Transfer the dough into a large bowl and use a spatula to fold in the chocolate chips (or just pulse them in using your blender). Serve and enjoy! Leftovers will keep in the fridge for up to one week.
