A basic google search found no other recipes similar, so don't ask me how I thought of this.
The first time I made this, it was near perfect. The second time I tried putting protein powder in and it ruined it. Third time, well, I think I may still have a tummy ache.
The type of sugar you use is important here- you can't use stevia, honey, agave etc and expect the right consistency. Adding brown sugar brings about a crazy different change, you can see in the photo below the two different consistencies; the top has honey, the bottom has brown sugar. The only way I have found to make this healthier and still get the right consistency is by using soaked dates.
Simply soak dates in some water for a few hours, then puree them with some of the water into a paste. Use this in place of the sugar.
Brown Rice Cookie Dough Dip
Gluten Free, dairy free, vegan *sugar free option*
1 1/2 Cup Cooked brown rice
Pinch of salt
2 tsp vanilla
1/3 Cup Nut butter ( I used peanut butter of course)
Sweetener , about 1/2 Cup (brown sugar or date paste to taste; see note above)
1/3 Cup choc chips
Blend everything except choc-chips in a food processor very well until smooth, tasting for amount of sweetness. Add choc-chips.
I made some of this into cookie dough cups- yummmm.
A lot of it didn't make it to the cups....
Hello! I just attempted to made this and while it was delicious I found the rice did not process all the way and the dough was still chunky even after processing for several minutes. I used brown sugar as my sweetener. I am wondering if the temperature of the rice makes a difference? My rice was still warm after cooking it.. maybe I should have cooled it before processing it? Any feedback would be much appreciated thank you! :)
ReplyDeleteHey there! Oh no- sorry you had that problem- I'm glad it still tasted good though :) I'm fairly sure your problem might have to do with how cooked your rice is or the type of rice you used. Softer (more cooked) rice would blend down easier I assume... I'm pretty sure I used a small grain brown rice as well. Sometimes adding a touch more sugar can help too, although I really don't understand how it works to make the mix smooth, it somehow does!
