Here we have an incredibly nutrient dense dessert made with a secret ingredient that you’d never guess of if you weren’t the one doing the cooking….
Garbanzo beans give this cookie cake the density of no other! Garbanzo beans also known as chickpeas are full of fiber and contain a small amount of protein. The chose a natural sweetener of dates which provide you with other nutrients like potassium and copper, crucial for boosting your immune system and aiding red blood cell count.
