Good For You Cookie Dough Balls

This recipe came about when I was sent some gloriously glossy looking Madagascan chocolate chips from a company called Kibble. You can of course use any chocolate chips, but make sure they are dark chocolate and contain natural ingredients. The cookie dough flavour comes from the addition of Maca powder. Maca is plant grown in the Andes mountains that has been harvested for over 3000 years. It is actually a relative of the radish and broccoli and has a malty, butterscotch smell and flavour, much like cookie dough. Maca can be found in health food stores and many supermarkets.
