Nobody will ever guess that canned chickpeas are the secret ingredient to this easy dessert. Enjoy the cookie dough bites on their own, scooped into mini phyllo crusts, or served over chopped banana and strawberries. They're a fun, no-bake way to get a protein boost and will remind you of making homemade cookies. Personalize the flavor of your cookie dough by swapping in other types of chocolate chips, chopped dried fruit, or crumbled cookies.
