Some recipes are worth repeating.
I made these as cookie dough pops a while ago and they are still an all time favorite of my friends. I made these to go along with the adorable sugar cookies I posted a couple weeks ago. They are so delicious that I definitely think they are worth re-posting. If you have not made them yet, you definitely should. Just about everybody loves eating raw cookie dough!
Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Pops
recipe from Baked Perfection
1 cup all purpose flour
1/4 tsp salt
dash of cinnamon
1 stick butter, softened (it is even okay if it is melting a little)
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
3/4 cups mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 - 2 tablespoons water
Assorted candy melts
In a medium bowl combine the flour, salt, and dash of cinnamon. In a second larger bowl, beat together the butter, sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla extract until creamy. Slowly beat in the flour mixture until smooth. Stir in the chocolate chips. Add water if mixture is too dry to form into balls. Roll the mixture into quarter size balls and lay on cookie sheet lined with wax paper (Should make approximately 20). Chill for several hours or freeze for 15-20 minutes until firm.
Melt candy melts in the microwave per directions on package (30 sec intervals, stirring in between). Gently dip the cookie dough ball into the candy coating. Once covered remove and let the excess chocolate fall off. Place back on wax paper to dry.
To decorate with drizzled chocolate, place melted chocolate in a plastic sandwich bag. Using scissors, cut the very tip off the sandwich bag. The smaller your cut, the smaller the drizzle. Use the sandwich bag to pipe the chocolate back and forth over the cookie dough truffle until you reach the desired look.

dont you know it girl, love cookie dough.
What beautiful cake balls! What are your tricks to making them so round and smooth?
They sure look pretty (my favorite colours) and I bet they are just as yummy.
Heather, cookie dough truffles are a lot easier to make smooth than cake balls. The dough is much more dense so it is easy to roll them smooth. When I made these I dipped each ball twice to prevent cracks and it seemed to work.

I couldn't keep these in my house,too much temptation.
I'll definitely have to try making these. I've made your Oreo truffles with white chocolate and semi-sweet chocolate, and my friends always rave about them!
what kind of melted candy would you suggest coating these in? i love the pink color!
To the last comment - I used Merckens Candy Melts for these. I have used a few other brands in the past and found this brand to be the best.
Oh these sound delicious! And they look pretty amazing too! I think I'll have to try these, cookie dough is too delicious to resist. :)
