Raw Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Balls

2/3 c raw cashews
1/3 c oats
2 Tbsp Agave
1 Tbsp Maple Syrup (Omit and use Agave to preserve true Raw Status if you care)
1 Tsp Vanilla Extract
1/4 c Chocolate Chips (or to preserve true raw status, take 2 Tbsp Raw Cocoa Powder and add 1 Tbsp Agave, optional dash of vanilla extract, whisk and blend.  Spread into a thin layer on wax or parchment paper, freeze.  Take frozen chocolate off parchment and crumble the shreds into the mixture as your raw “chips”.)

Blend cashews and oats into 'flour'.  Add the next three ingredients.  Blend again until it reaches dough-like consistency.  Add chocolate chips by hand.

Roll into balls and refrigerate.

Recipe Yields: Approximately 12 Cookie Dough Balls
