Not all cookie dough is the same, and it’s best not to eat normal cookie dough as it contains raw eggs and raw flour that can both contain bacteria. This edible cookie dough doesn’t contain eggs, and it’s best to toast your flour before using it. This recipe is a perfectly safe way to enjoy unbaked cookie dough!
This cookie dough doesn’t contain eggs or any raising agents, so I do not recommend baking it. If you want to bake these cookies, try this chocolate chip cookie recipe instead!
The egg-shaped cookie dough is super fun to decorate. I love these bright colors for Easter, but you can easily adapt them for any holiday. Use red, green, and white chocolate for Christmas, or black and orange for Halloween. Make green ones for St. Patricks Day or funfetti for birthdays!
Once your cookie dough truffles have set, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They will keep well for up to 4 days. You can also freeze them for up to 1 month.
Recipe Tips and Tricks
- Toast the flour at 350°F for 5 minutes to kill off any harmful bacteria.
- Allow the cookie dough to fully set before coating in the chocolate.
- Make them gluten-free by using a 1:1 gluten free flour blend.
I am so in love with these adorable Easter cookie dough truffles. They are so simple and easy to make, but they make such an impact with all those bright colors!
