Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup cooked brown rice
- 1/4 cup almond butter
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1/4 cup chocolate chips
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp salt
Instructions
- Start by gathering all your ingredients: 1 cup of cooked brown rice, 1/4 cup of almond butter, 1/4 cup of maple syrup, 1/4 cup of chocolate chips, 1 tsp of vanilla extract, and 1/4 tsp of salt.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked brown rice and almond butter. Use a fork or a potato masher to blend them together until you achieve a smooth and cohesive mixture.
- Add the maple syrup, vanilla extract, and salt to the rice and almond butter mixture. Stir well until all ingredients are fully incorporated and the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Once the mixture is well combined, gently fold in the chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- After mixing in the chocolate chips, taste the dough. If you prefer a sweeter flavor, you can add a little more maple syrup to suit your taste.
- Once you are satisfied with the flavor and texture, you can serve the edible cookie dough immediately. Scoop it into bowls or enjoy it straight from the mixing bowl.
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. You can enjoy it chilled or let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes before indulging.
Tips
- Rice Texture Matters: Ensure your brown rice is fully cooled and slightly mashed for the smoothest texture.
- Almond Butter Hack: Use room temperature almond butter for easier mixing and creamier consistency.
- Chocolate Chip Distribution: Fold chocolate chips gently to prevent breaking them and ensure even spread.
- Sweetness Control: Start with recommended maple syrup amount and adjust to taste.
- Storage Tip: For best flavor and texture, consume within 3-4 days when stored in refrigerator.
- Customization Options: Feel free to swap chocolate chips with nuts, dried fruit, or alternative sweeteners.
- Serving Suggestion: Serve chilled for a firmer texture or let sit at room temperature for a softer, more traditional cookie dough feel.
