Chickpeas, they’re not just for dinner! These cookies are so quick to throw together, you’ll have a sweet treat in under 20 minutes. You can also mix up the add-ins; sub some of the chocolate chips for chopped dried fruit or chopped peanuts. If you don’t have an air fryer, bake these in a regular oven at 350℉ until golden, 12 to 14 minutes.
