"NOT" cookie dough

Let me just say I have a love affair with cookie dough. I honestly make it once a week, for whatever reason I just crave this evil goodness. It is really bad because when I make it I seriously eat 3 HUGE scoops of cookie dough and then a cookie when it comes out of the oven. I have a problem BUT I have found an answer to my issue. On Tuesday like so many of you I link up and read recipes at the Tasty Tuesday Party and I this where I found it. FAUX COOKIE DOUGH!!! Before I go on and on about how good this is I must give credit to Dream in Domestic. I was so happy to know that I had all the ingredients at home and of course I was craving cookie dough because I have a problem!! Now let me tell you there is nothing that will ever replace the taste of uncooked batter. But I made this last night and I immediately told my husband, it is just what I need. Everything in it is healthy and there is nothing that will break the calorie bank. So here is the recipe, it worked to curb the carving and I will totally be making this again. I can not tell you enough how excited I am about this odd, awesome recipe. Thank You Dream in Domestic, you have saved my butt and favorite jeans!!
