chickpeas serving size 1 cup - carbs 54 grams

Natural Peanut butter - 1 cup - 24 grams carbohydrate

honey - 1 cup 93 grams carbohydrate

(agave - 1oz - 9 grams carbohydrate)

semi sweet chocolate chips - 1cup - 106 grams carbohydrate

Now - I have no idea how quickly these cookies would be digested or if they would cause a spike in blood sugar, and anyone using this recipe isn't adding cane sugar aside what is already in the chocolate chips, but this is not a "No Sugar!" recipe!
