Flour is often listed as one of the first ingredients that goes into making cookies, but P.S. Snacks Co.'s ready-to-eat cookie dough swaps this key ingredient for an unusual one—organic garbanzo beans.
The brand's Chocolate Chip, Peanut Butter and Fudge Brownie Cookie Dough products are packaged into small tubs, which are designed to serve as "the perfect solution for those who wish to indulge with a clean conscience."
One of the problems with many edible cookie dough products is that they must find a way to do without eggs, but this is another ingredient that has been easily excluded from the formulas. Instead, ingredients like raw cane sugar, almonds and organic semi-sweet chocolate chips can be found in P.S. Snacks Co.'s range of innovative, sweet snacks.
