Living Rawesome Day #74 Raw Chocolate Chips pg. 46 everyday raw
October 7, 2009
Today was a long day. Woke up early, sent the kids off to school, cleaned the kitchen, went to work, got home at 4, finally took time for myself and read some of a new book I am reading. Then I had class tonight. I finally started on my recipe by 10:30 pm. I thought that these would be really easy. Quite honestly they really made me in a bad mood. My piping bag broke so I had to make the chips with a plastic ziploc bag. It broke, then I decided that I would just spread the batter out and dehydrate it. So I have some chips and alot of batter that will have to be chunks. This recipe was easy to make in the vitamix, but doing the chips was an absolute nightmare. I wasted so much of the chip batter. I just hope these cookies are worth it. I seriously was ready to just throw them. I think I’m just tired. I really just want to go to sleep. This recipe should’ve been fun but I made it make me in a bad mood:(
At first things were going well. It was fun making the chips, then I realized the hole was too small for the chips so I changed it, then it just got worse from there!
Then it started to get sloppy.
Then I just slapped all the batter on the parchment paper and spread it out. I will make these chocolate chunks. So I will have chocolate chunk cookies and chocolate chip cookies.
Raw Chocolate Chip Ingredients
1 3/4 cups cashews, soaked 2 hours
1 cup maple syrup ( I used agave)
1 cup raw cacao powder
1/4 t vanilla
1/2 t sea salt
They are dehydrating overnight.
Even though this recipe was the hardest to make and the most time consuming yet. I know the kids will love these cookies. It will be worth my agravation, I am sure. This really should’ve been one of best recipes to make. I think it was my state of mind. Just tired.
I am going to rest. The cookies will be great tomorrow.
