How to make Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Balls
To make these chocolate chip cookie dough balls, start by spreading the flour out evenly onto a baking tray, and bake for 5 minutes at 180C/350F/Gas 4.
This makes the flour safe to consume in a ‘no-bake’ recipe.
Whisk together the melted butter, sugar, vanilla, and salt. Fold in the flour, then the chocolate chips. If the mixture still seems a little crumbly, add 1 – 2 tablespoons of milk.
Roll the dough into 1oz balls. You’ll get about 22 – 24 balls. Refrigerate until firm, then serve, or keep refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
You can also freeze them for up to 3 months!

NOTE: For best results, I highly recommend using the gram measurements (with a digital scale), rather than the cup measurements. Cup measurements are simply not accurate enough, and I cannot guarantee the best results if you use them.
These Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Balls are:
- deliciously fudgy and creamy
- super quick and easy to make
- safe to eat – no eggs, and baked flour!
- perfect for sharing
- freezer-friendly
These cookie dough balls have the BEST flavour, thanks to using all brown sugar, and two teaspoons of vanilla extract – you are just gonna love them.
If you’d like a less vanilla taste, you can use just one teaspoon, but I doubt you’ll need to do that. 🙂
I used 1 whole cup of chocolate chips in this recipe, because you should know by now I love my chocolate chips! But if you’d like less, you can use 1/2 cup (90g).
Now, go and enjoy cookie dough whenever you want!

My family loved the cookie dough they were surprised as I can’t cook!!
I added to much brown sugar but it is still good.
I am 11 and it is easy to make may I suggest that you use botterschoch chips too makes it creamy but still so good!
Hi Hailee – Butterscotch chips sound awesome in this recipe!
Do u have to cook it?
No, we are only baking the flour to make it safe for consumption.
Are these dough balls quite firm?I was wondering if I could make cookie dough slice if I put the dough in a 7inch tin?
Hi Amy! Yes, this cookie dough will be firm enough to be made into slices.
Important missing step… Let dough cool some before adding chocolate chips. The melted butter and hot flour give plenty of heat to melt your chips. You end up making a mess. Hopefully a delicious mess.
Yum yum yum absolutely delicious!!!
Haven’t made it yet, but my family is REALLY excited! Hope I’m not disappointed. Also, is the cleanup easy? I’m doing it tonight. =)
Awesome, I hope you all enjoy them! It’s a quick recipe to throw together, I’d love to know how you get on 🙂
Oh yeah, sometimes you just really need to eat some cookie dough! These bites looks fantastic, such a wonderful treat!
Thanks, Demeter!
