Cookie Dough Truffles are bite-sized edible cookie dough balls dipped in chocolate. They’re easy to make and perfect for sharing!
Cookie Dough Truffles
We all have that one thing we can’t resist – for me, and it’s Peanut Butter Cups – preferably frozen! However, I married a chocolate chip cookie junkie.
I truly believe Brian would eat chocolate chip cookie dough in just about every imaginable form! He even eats it with raw eggs (blech – I give him “the speech” every time I see him do it).
Luckily, this recipe has NO RAW EGGS, and the flour is baked to prevent any food poisoning! Now, he doesn’t have to listen to my soapbox raw-cookie-dough-eating rant … and neither do you!
These are perfect for the holidays! I love giving them as gifts, and I almost always have a tray of these for any party we host or are invited to!
Let’s see how to make them …

I made cookie dough cupcakes for my daughter's 2nd birthday party in April but these seem like they'd be easier to make.
I definitely have to try it out.
These are so simple! I bet you could even put a lollipop stick in them like the cake pops! Little kids would totally dig that.
These look delicious. Thanks for linking up!
