WHAT YOU NEED FOR COOKIE DOUGH BITES

- Butter: I use room temperature, salted butter in this recipe. But you could easily use vegan butter and make these bites vegan
- Brown sugar: To make these a little healthier, I used Purecane's brown sugar sweetener, but regular brown sugar will also work
- Oat flour: I use Bob's Red Mill CERTIFIED gluten free oat flour, but if you do not feel comfortable because of gluten sensitivities, replace it with almond flour or gluten free 1:1 flour. (you will need to adjust the amount a bit)
- Vanilla Extract: Don't skip this, it really helps the flavor of the cookie dough
- Mini chocolate chips: I like the Enjoy Life Mini Chocolate Chips because they're gluten free, dairy free, and vegan friendly. Regular chocolate chips will work as well
HOW TO MAKE EDIBLE COOKIE DOUGH BITES



- In a large bowl, add all ingredients except chocolate chips. Beat on low speed and gradually turn the speed up to medium. Mix until everything is well combined
- Next, pour the mini chocolate chips into the dough, and use a rubber spatula to gently fold them in
- Use your hands to roll them into bite-size balls and place them on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper and place them into the freezer for 20 minutes
- After about 18 minutes, begin to melt your chocolate. In a microwave safe bowl, or small pot melt ⅔ cup chocolate chips with 1-2 teaspoons of coconut oil to thin. Add more coconut oil if needed, you want the chocolate to be smooth and completely melted
- Take the cookie dough balls out of the freezer and use a spoon to coat them in the melted chocolate, and place back onto the cookie sheet
- Once they're all coated, place them back into the freezer for 10-15 minutes
RECIPE VARIATIONS
While these edible chocolate chip cookie dough bites are phenomenal as they are, sometimes it's fun to mix things up and try something new! Here's a few ideas to try if you'd like
- Use white chocolate chips instead
- Substitute 2 tablespoons of butter with 2 tablespoons of peanut butter or almond butter for a nutty twist!
- Add in 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder for a chocolatey twist! (use 2 tablespoons LESS of oat flour to begin with and add more as needed)
- Make them funfetti by adding in 2 tablespoons of rainbow sprinkles

EXPERT TIPS
- Use softened, not melted butter
- I use salted butter, but you can substitute with unsalted butter or even vegan butter
- Substitute the Purecane brown sweetener with a 1:1 ratio of regular brown sugar
- You can substitute the oat flour with ⅔ cup gluten free all purpose flour
- Use your judgement to get the right consistency. If it seems too sticky, add more oat flour, or add a little more butter if it's too dry
- I make this with a hand mixer, no need to drag out a big stand mixer
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
You can keep any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week.
Not usually because of the raw eggs and flour, but this recipe doesn't have either and is perfectly safe to eat.
Oat flour doesn't need to be, but a gluten free all purpose flour does need to me heat treated. Cook it on a baking sheet at 350 f for 5-10 minutes.
