Sweet, edible, vegan chocolate chip cookie dough encased in a rich dark chocolate shell.

Ingredients

Scale

For the Cookie Dough

1/2 c vegan butter

1/4 c sugar

1/2 c light brown sugar

1 tbsp cornstarch

1/4 tsp salt

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 1/4 c all purpose flour

1/2 c nondairy mini chocolate chips

For the Chocolate Shell

1 1/2 c nondairy chocolate chips

2 tbsp vegan butter

Instructions

  1. Prepare Cookie Dough: In a large bowl, cream together the vegan butter, sugar and brown sugar with an electric hand mixer or stand mixer until light and fluffy. Add cornstarch, salt and vanilla to the bowl and beat again until ingredients are evenly distributed. Add flour to the bowl and beat until just combined. Fold in the mini chocolate chips.
  2. Roll: Line a large baking sheet with parchment or wax paper and place it next to your bowl of cookie dough. Take 1 tablespoon of dough and roll it into a tight ball between your hands. Place it on the lined baking sheet. Continue process until you have used up all of the dough. Place the baking sheet in the freezer to chill dough balls for 15 minutes.
  3. Melt Chocolate: Add nondairy chocolate chips to a microwave-safe bowl and microwave for 30 second increments, stirring after each. Continue until chocolate is completely melted and smooth. Stir in the vegan butter.
  4. Dip: Once 15 minutes have elapsed, remove the cookie dough balls from the freezer. Working with one ball at a time, drop the cookie dough into the melted chocolate. Toss around with a fork to ensure all sides are coated. Try to tap off any excess chocolate when removing the cookie dough from the bowl. Place coated cookie dough ball back on the baking sheet and continue until all have been covered in chocolate. Return baking sheet to the freezer for another 5 minutes.
  5. Drizzle: This step is optional but recommended for vibes. Scoop the leftover melted chocolate into a small squeeze bottle using a rubber spatula. Remove the cookie dough bites from the freezer and drizzle a light stream of chocolate over each one. Place back in the freezer to set for a final 10 minutes.

Equipment

Notes

*Cookie dough bites will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. They can also be frozen for up to 1 month.

*When melting chocolate in the microwave it is important to remember not to add the butter until the chocolate is already melted. Chocolate is delicate during the melting process and additional moisture can cause the chocolate to seize.
