Need a sweet treat to make for a party or just an afternoon snack? These Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Balls are the perfect delicacy for you and all of your cookie dough loving friends!
Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Balls
If it was acceptable( and healthy) I would just eat the cookie dough of all the cookies I made instead of baking them. What is it about the dough that’s so good? This recipe combines two of my most favorite foods, chocolate and cookie dough. Can it get any better than that?
Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Balls
What you need:
- 1 stick butter, softened
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 2 1/4 cup flour
- 1 can sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- chocolate chips(you will need at least 2 bags!)
Whip the butter and the brown sugar until fluffy.
Add in the rest of the ingredients and about 1/2 c. of the chocolate chips. Let the dough cool off in the fridge for about an hour or until firm enough to handle.
After the dough has cooled, form it into little balls. This recipe will make quite a few! Put the balls in the freezer for 2 hours or until hard enough for the next step.
Melt the rest of the chocolate chips and coat the cookie dough balls. I decorated mine with some things I had in the pantry, like the white chocolate chips I melted for the one on the back right of the picture and the one on the back right of the picture has crushed Butterfinger’s on it.
Enjoy!

December 11, 2013 at 6:19 pmThese are my son’s favorite! I make them every Christmas. I make them ahead and freeze them. I’m lucky if they make it to Christmas because he keeps sneaking in the freezer and eating them!

December 11, 2013 at 7:20 pmHello! I would like to try these, they look yummy! I would like to clarify though, do you leave the flour raw or do you cook it on the stovetop? You did mention about cooling off the mixture… Thanks!
Merissa says
December 11, 2013 at 7:23 pmThis recipe does not need to be cooked, the dough just needs to be “chilled” in the fridge for a while to harden up a bit before you add the chocolate.

December 11, 2013 at 11:40 pmCan’t wait to try these. Can you please tell me how much does a stick of butter weigh? I live in New Zealand and butter is sold in 500gram blocks here. I have been enjoying your site, especially as we are going to be little house living very soon! Thanks for all the great tips and recipes.

December 12, 2013 at 6:52 amI’m not sure what it weights but a stick of butter is 1/2 cup or 8 tablespoons.

December 18, 2013 at 2:24 pmHow many does this make? I am making them as gifts and not sure how many batches I need to make.
Merissa says

December 23, 2013 at 9:59 amI have never seen canned milk in a cookie recipe before. What does it do?
Diana says
December 15, 2017 at 10:38 pmMake sure you use SWEETENED CONDENSED MILK. A good brand is “Eagle Brand”. It comes in white or chocolate flavors. I have never tried the chocolate flavor. It will add sweetness and moisture.
