Cookie Dough Dip

If you were at the reunion, this is the cookie dough dip I brought.  It's a "PIN"spired recipe, so I'll include the link for the original recipe at the end.  Shhhh...don't tell people how healthy it is!

1 can chickpeas or white beans (drained and rinsed very well)
1/8 tsp. Salt
1/8 tsp baking soda
2 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 cup nut butter of choice (You can get away with using only 3 tbsp. If you use peanut butter, it’ll have a slight “pb cookie dough” taste)
Up to 1/4 cup milk of choice, only if needed
Up to 2/3 cup sweetner.  I used about 1/2 cup Agave Nectar (the link will give you other ideas)
1/3 cup chocolate chips
2 to 3 tbsp oats (Ground flax will also work)

Add all ingredient (except choc. chips) to food processor and blend until very smooth (this is where you might add more milk and/or sweetner).  Stir in choc chips.  Cover and store in fridge.  Serve with graham crackers, apple slices or whatever sounds good to you.

Here is the original recipe...it wasn't very clear, so I tried it and made some small changes in the recipe above:
