Frozen Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Balls

Superb frozen treat. For those who found it to be too bland, add 1/8 tsp salt, which will bring the flavor to life. Also added a pinch of soda, since all chocolate chip cookie dough recipes have soda, and it tasted like the real thing. It was very soft, but I had no problem rolling into balls. I used them to bake into the cupcake recipe on this site (long name, like Choc. Chip Cookie Dough + Cupcake...) because the dough mixture in that recipe features eggs, and since it is not supposed to bake all the way through, I used this one instead as it does not feature the use of raw eggs. Absolutely perfect.

Great recipe! We melted chocolate in a double boiler and dipped the frozen balls into the chocolate and then refroze. My daughters want to add sprinkles next time.

Wendy's fast food restaurants have what is called a Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough blizzard or freeze. It's vanilla ice cream with a mix-in of these round, small bits of heaven in the form of chocolate chip cookie dough yumminess! THIS is what this recipe provides. As a surprise for our recently Jr. High graduate son's party I made this recipe. The ONLY changes I made for us is NO WALNUTS (to ME AKA I call them 'dirt clods' lol) and I added the whole two cup bag of chocolate chips. This provided the mix to go further for the party and also a guaranteed chip in every cluster! Rather than the messiness of forming the 'balls' of dough by hand, I used two small measuring spoons and scooped up the dough with one and dropped little piles of the soft dough onto two cookie sheets. I froze them in the freezer for only 30 mins and then spatula'ed them into a ziploc bag and back into the freezer until dessert time. I got rave, rave reviews with this recipe. You will too. On the make-your-own-sundae bar our guests sprinkled the dough bits on top of scooped vanilla ice cream and drizzled hot fudge and topped everything with Cool Whip in a can spray. You won't regret this one people. :)

Mmmmm...who doesn't like cookie dough?! This recipe is the best!!! I have no idea what people are talking about when they say the recipe is dry and crumbly. I don't even add the water and it's perfect! Maybe they aren't using an electric mixer, I don't know. All in all, I wonderful, must-try recipe.

Easy pea-sy to make a no-worry cookie dough. I halved the recipe and ended up with about 24 balls. I melted 1 c semi-sweet chips and 2T or so of veg oil to coat them with.

For the past few days i have been browsing through endless pages of google until i came upon this recipe. If you stir the mixture more thoroughly, the result is fantastic :) Consider this page bookmarked!

These turned out great! I was looking for make something easy and sweet. I made half of the cookie dough into balls which I dipped into tempered milk chocolate and the other half I rolled into extra small balls so I could add them as a mix-in for ice cream. They tasted better the following day after making them. The evening I made them they tasted very brown sugary which I didn't like at all, but after a day the flavor and texture melded together and they were great!

We LOVED these! If you love cookie dough, you will love these! I did make a few changes though, which is why I am only giving this 4 stars. As is, it deserves 4 stars. I used 1 cup brown sugar and 1/2 cup white sugar, 1/8 teaspoon salt, and a whole bag of normal sized chocolate chips. I like it better when there is chocolate in every bite. I made them a very decent size, yet they made more than expected, which was a plus! Also, I put them into the freezer for about an hour and then dipped some of them in chocolate. They were great and looked amazing! If you dip them in chocolate or not, they still look and taste fine. Also, I found that in the freezer it froze a little too much, so instead I put them in a container and placed them in the coldest part of the fridge. They are still great, and I reccomend eating them directly from the fridge/freezer.

These are delicious! I made them without the walnuts. If you've ever eaten the store-bought prepared cookie dough straight from the freezer, this tastes exactly the same. Yummy!

We followed the receipe exactly, and it was dry and bland. We added a pinch of salt, and then some white sugar and it became "passable" but I would never make these again or ask anyone other than my family to taste them. I'll stick to sweating it in the kitchen from now on.

My family and I loved it. I cooked it for my dads b-day. He was soooooooooo happy that I did

Definitely add salt.

This does not taste quite the same as the real thing but close enough. If they are dry and crumbly you added too much flour. The right way to measure it is to fluff it up with a spoon and use that spoon to fill the cup. Never dip a cup into the flour and then tap it to add more. That is too much. If you really want to know how much more you're adding weigh it sometime. 1 cup of all purpose flour should weigh about 4.5 oz. Other kinds of flour are different. Also adding bit of salt to this recipe is a good idea.

If you are the person who enjoys stealing bites from the cookie dough, these are for you. Why bother making cookies when what you REALLY want is to eat the entire bowl of dough? Roll up a bunch of these suckers and enjoy a guilty treat. They are exactly what they claim to be: frozen chocolate chip cookie dough balls. And they are great.

These were a huge hit with my kids who all prefer to eat unbaked cookie dough over baked cookies! I omitted the nuts and dipped the frozen balls in melted semi-sweet chocolate chips and sprinkled with Valentine's sprinkles. So easy and cute! Very dangerous to have on hand, especially if you're watching your weight :) We actually prefer them refrigerated vs. frozen. Don't want to worry about breaking a tooth, plus we always eat the dough out of the refrigerator, not the freezer. Fun new recipe!

These are so easy to make and taste exactly like the dough sold at supermarkets. The hardest part is clearing freezer space for the little balls. I made a couple of changes: used 3/4 cups white sugar+ 3/4 cups brown sugar instead of 1.5 cups brown sugar, and added 1/4 tsp salt. This recipes made about 24 walnut-sized balls.

We weren't very impressed with these. They are not terrible, but definitely missing something. When I mentioned that to my husband he said "Yeah - they're missing the eggs"

Um - yummy! If you're a spoon licker, this is it - there's nothing not to love. I put the dough in the fridge before rolling into balls and then froze them before dipping (just halfway) in melted chocolate. It's that sweetness that makes you want to barf but also makes you reach for another...

These were yummy, and a big hit at our girls night!

So yummy! These were a total hit. They are better on day two, and even more yummy if they thaw a little bit :) I used 1 cup brown sugar and 1/2 cup white sugar...I also added a little salt because I love it with my chocolate! Dipped in Almond Bark and decorated with festive sprinkles.

These are simple and taste great. I ended up covering the dough balls with tempered white chocolate, and it worked well to keep the ball firm while eating it. If you eat just the cookie dough it softens quickly it your hands, so eat quickly. :) A tip for rolling them into balls- scoop out teaspoon sized lumps onto the cookie sheets and freeze for 30 minutes. Take them out and they should be firm enough to roll in your hands.

I just made these. I took the advise of adding salt and baking soda, they are delicious! The dough is very soft so I used my cookie scoop to place portions on a baking sheet and froze them for about 14 minutes and they rolled great. I put them back in the freezer for an hour before coating with chocolate. I can't wait for my family to taste them.

made these last night for work, needless to say- "YUM!" had to add salt, a little extra water and I like equal parts white and brown sugar. Will I make these again? I have no choice, they're already asking for them for our next party!

I gotta say I was a little disappointed in these. I followed recipe to a tee...even froze overnight. They were really bland and i also thought they were kinda dry. It was as if they were just missing something. All said they weren't awful, but they weren't WOW either. Will have to play around with this or continue searching for another recipe cause I really like the concept of it. Thanks for the submission.

I made the recipe exactly as written, and while they weren't bad, they definitely tasted STRONGLY of brown sugar, even had a brown-sugar texture to them. As one reviewer stated, it was better the second day, but still wouldn't be something I'd want to eat. Might play with the recipe some.

These were delicious! We made a white chocolate Macadamia nut cookies. I covered them with chocolate following the one of the reviewers suggestions: I put the frozen dough ball on a fork and then spooned white chocolate over the ball. Then wiggled the fork up and down to get the excess chocolate off...worked really well. I used a 1 1/2 Tablespoon scooper. This is probably too big, they are really rich!

Excellent!

want to make it super healthy????? replace flour with almond flour (in most groceries health food section) replace butter with tahini and use cocoa chips. replace sugar with agave nectar (to taste won't need a whole lot) replace the chocolate sauce with: two tablespoons of coconut oil melted with 2-3 tablespoons cocoa powder and agave nectar to taste. all these things can be found in regular groceries health food section.

Excellent recipe! So easy and quick to whip up. They disappeared in 3 days. I followed the recipe exactly - the only change was that I didn't use an electric mixer. Didn't taste bland at all...tasted exactly like cookie dough. My guys thought they were getting a treat and kept sneaking it from the bowl. :o)

This dough is delicious! Mine did not actually freeze - it just got very cold. I used margarine so that's probably why it didn't freeze well. My husband loved the taste and the fact that there were no raw eggs in the dough.

These are so tasty and delicious, and no raw egg! I substituted 1/2 cup of white sugar for some the brown sugar, so it wouldn't be overwhelming. Also, it is essential to add at least a 1/2 tsp of salt, otherwise they are pretty sweet. I keep mine in a gallon bag in the freezer, and they are gone within a week!!

goodbye, waist line.

These were really good...however, I think next time I will simply make my normal Choc. Chip cookie dough recipe....the fact that there is no salt is a little bit weird, because I think that the salt and baking soda add quite a bit to the overall flavor of the cookie dough. These were a big hit with my family, though! Thanks for the recipe.

This was soooo good. I halved the recipe, but didn't half the liquid because otherwise, it was too crumbly. It was the perfect amount and I will DEFINITELY make these again!

I'm sorry I didn't care for these at all. They did not taste like the cookie dough you bake. I kept tasting flour. Will not make these again :\

I made a small change to these..instead of 1 1/2 brown sugar, I used 1 cup of brown and 1/2 white. I lowered the butter to 1 1/2 sticks instead of 2. They are great dipped in chocolate.

I made this for my best friend who LOVES cookie dough. I used chocolate chunks instead of the mini chocolate chips, left out the walnuts and used only a teaspoon of vanilla extract. They were delicious! I think next time I will cut down on the butter using only one and a half sticks. Other than that this is a perfect treat for a cookie dough lover!

Absolutely delicious! Mmmm! The cookies are a bit tough to eat, but it's all worth the work!

I don't know what everyone is raving about! I even added the salt and still not good, added coffee, ....nothing helped.

I really wanted to love these, but they fell a little short for me. First off, when it comes to chocolate chip cookies, or the dough I tend to be very picky. As far as premade cookies go, only the nestle tollhouse squares will I eat. I have my own choco chip recipe that I make if I want homemade ones...and strangely it's not the tollhouse recipe. Maybe I would like them better dipped in chocolate. I am going to try with the ones I just made and see if that give them that little extra.

Pretty good. I left out the chips and nuts, rolled into a log and froze for an hour before eating. Good enough to satisfy a cookie dough craving but the lack of eggs is definitely too noticeable.

We love these!!! per another user's review, we added 1/8 teaspoon salt for a little extra umph. They were delish!

Far from being anything remotely healthy... these tasted really good... I can finally feel "safe" from eating raw eggs in normal cookie dough... these do make a nice little snack dessert though especially if you dip them in chocolate... I used 1 cup semi-sweet chips and 2 tablespoons shortening and it worked perfectly... they turned out wonderful.... only reason I gave them 4 stars is because they seemed to lack the flavor real cookie dough has even though i did add a pinch of salt next time i will add a little more and maybe some baking soda... but the only other downside is they are also not at all healthy... but what desserts really are...

Nauseatingly sweet. I added about 1/2 tsp. of salt because I like my chocolate chip cookies with salt. I also used 1/2 cup white sugar and 1 cup brown sugar. That made them perfect. I melted a 12-oz. bag of semi-sweet chocolate chips with 2 Tbsp. Crisco, and dipped and drizzled all the balls. They were really good. The kids went nuts over RAW COOKIE DOUGH!!!!!

Couldn't stop eating them. Dipped them in melted chocolate, Amazing!

Nice idea, but despite loving cookie dough, I can't eat these. WAY too much sugar resulting in a granulated texture even though I creamed well with beaters. Needs some salt, too. Really doesn't taste like normal cookie dough and therefore is disappointing.

We loved the recipe as written, but over time it has evolved to perfection for us. Following the advise of others, I use a pinch of baking soda, a few shakes of salt, 1 cup brown sugar and the remaining 1/2 cup in white, only 1 tsp vanilla, and replace the nuts with extra chocolate chips. Last time I used 3/4 c chocolate chips and 3/4 cup butterscotch chips...yum! Haven't tried dipping them yet, because I think they are perfect as is, and I find almond bark to be much too waxy when frozen. I love this recipe!!

DO NOT USE MARGARINE. Okay, so I've made theses twice now and the first time I followed the recipe perfect and they turned out awesome! The second time I didn't have real butter, so I used margarine. I thought since I've made cookies like that, these would be fine like that as well. BIG MISTAKE!!! I might be stupid for trying but hey, I wanted to make these! So word to the wise never substitute with margarine in this recipe.

kids liked them...nothing special though. was good to try once

So good! Theses taste just like cookie dough, don't miss the egg at all. I dipped mine in Chocolate, melted one bag of chocolate chips with a little shortening. The only thing I can't figure out is how to get them so perfectly round. Some of the photos show such round, beautiful chocolate balls!

Easy to make and a great hit with my kids! This one is a keeper.

i thought it was a cute idea, but my family didn't agree... i made the dough-balls, then i coated half of them in chocolate. my hubby said they didn't taste good so i flattened and baked them. i used margarine and you really tasted it. will not make this again...

An unusual treat if you want to try something different! We dipped ours in chocolate and added valentine sprinkles. As one reviewer recommended, we did add salt and it made a huge difference. I took some to a potluck with a bunch of middle-school age kids and then took the rest to work. They were a hit with everyone.

Sorry - hate to give a bad review, but these were dry and crumbly.

I used whole wheat flour (it's all I ever have around the house), so I had to add a few tablespoons of peanut butter to get the batter a little more moist. This is pretty good stuff!

Made exactly as directed. They weren't dry or crumbly, tasted like cookie dough. Next time I'll add a pinch of salt, just to see if it makes a difference. My kids loved them!

Add 1/8 t of salt, that helps! Also, replace some of the brown sugar with white sugar.

These were really good! I added a little salt as suggested by others to give a little more flavor. My only real reason for the 4 star rating is that they were almost too hard to eat when stored in the freezer; I definitely found them to be better refrigerated. Rolled them out and cut into heart shapes for Valentine's day.

This is a really good recipe. I didn't have brown sugar so I used white sugar and I only had about 1 1/2 cups of flour, but the recipe turned out great, just as good as real cookie dough.

These are great! My whole family loves them. Just be sure to use butter. I subsituted marg. for butter once and they were a little greasy and just not as good.

these were really good!

I'm a huge cookie dough fan so I am rating this recipe as a 5 but those who don't really care about cookie dough would probably rate it a 3 or 4 (like Hubs). I left out the walnuts and I used 1 cup regular size choc chips b/c I don't care for the minis. I coated them with choc almond bark which is a must. I put the leftovers in the freezer for a later date. Mmmmmmm- I might have to pull one out now since I'm thinking about them.....

Not bad. A little bland for me but my son loves it and so does my hubby.

Made these yesterday to put in icecream...most did not survive! These are wonderful dipped in a little chocolate and frozen...enjoy!

Followed to a T, did not like this at all. Doesnt taste enough like cookie dough for me to eat this. Even my kids didnt like it.

This was a nice project for my oldest and I to make together. We made them and froze them in bite-sized pieces and folded them into Five Minute Ice Cream. (We didn't get to try any of it. Hubby demolished it all last night. He said it was awesome, though. I'd make this again for sure.)

Well I enjoyed the cookie! However the brown sugar taste was very strong. which is ok for those who enjoy that. But thats not really me. I also dipped them in chocolate. 1/3 of them were dipped in unsweetened choco. 1/3 of them were dipped in milk choco. and the rest of them were plain. They were all delicious! :-)

These are AMAZING! I added a little salt and baking soda to taste a bit more like real chocolate chip cookie dough. I didn't cover them in chocolate either as they really didn't need anything else. AMAZING!

These were a hit!!! Will make these again and again.

Ah-may-ZING!! Delicious recipe that will be tasty in some homeade ice cream. I used mini chocolate chips.

Thought these were really yummy - only change was that they got much too hard in the freezer. I kept them in the fridge instead - still cold but didn't break your teeth. I skipped the walnuts and added extra chocolate chips. I let them set in the fridge until firm and then dipped them in melted chocolate.

i LOVE THEM but my family saysthay r 2 sweet i would put less surger.

These were easy to make, but hard to eat when taken right from the freezer. I covered these in melted semi-sweet chocolate, and then popped them back in the freezer. A few hours later, we went to try them, and they were hard, almost too hard to bite. After thawing for about 10 minutes, they are okay, but I think they would be better just in the refrigerator.

I LOVE this recipe! Sometimes my husband abd I just wanna be fatties and eat some cookie dough, but I'm pregnant right now so I didn't want to touch anything with raw eggs. I make a batch of this and just throw it in a container for the freezer. So whenever we get a fattie craving, we just grab a spoon! But I do agree to add the salt and baking soda. Makes it taste like the real thing!

Added a little bit of salt too and they came out very good!

My kids love them. They were a little rich for me so I only ate a couple. But they were still great. I followed the advice and mixed everything really good and they rolled fine. I also froze them for a few hours and they froze good. My kids keep asking me to make them again.

These tasted just like the cookie bits that are mixed into ice cream. They turned out great and were also very easy and quick to make.

Oh my god I've died & gone to heaven!!!!! These were wonderful & deff a good treat to have when your craving cookie dough craving without worrying about the raw eggs! I was a little worried as people were saying the brown sugar taste was too strong but I made them exactly as written & they were phenomenal! The only thing I did was different was using a whole bag of chocolate chips & adding a pinch on salt & baking soda for a more authentic cookie dough taste, then I dipped them in melted Hershey kisses. My hubby & I can't stop going back for more! I'm going to put them in some ice cream later tonight for a nice treat!!! Thanks for the amazing recipe!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

These were ok. They were at least eaten by my family. Even though the taste was good, it seemed to be missing something ( I did add salt). Next time I'm going to experiment and try a normal chocolate chip cookie recipe (skipping the raw egg) and see how that turns out.

Very good! I'm pregnant and cannot have raw cookie dough any other way. This was a nice treat. I melted almond bark and dipped the balls. Super good!

I could take or leave this recipe. If I were to make it again, I would put in only 1 teaspoon of vanilla and substitute half of the brown sugar for white sugar. I really love vanilla, but it was overpowering in this recipe. I ate about half of the cookie dough balls over the course of a week and then decided that I wasn't enjoying them enough to justify the amount of calories that they were and I threw the rest away. I like the thought of cookie dough without raw egg, but this quite do it for me.

A little too flour-y tasting even with the recommended added salt. Will make againa and use a little less flour. Big hit with the kids, regardless!

I loved the brown sugar taste. I think I would like to try adding chopped maraschino cherries or maybe just a 1/4 tsp maple flavoring for something different, but the basic recipes is good.

Loved these! I scooped them into balls and coated them in dark chocolate. They really have to be frozen all the time- they can get mushy if you don't. I love the taste of cookie dough and these are the perfect treat to have on hand! I will be making these again, SO GOOD!

I L.O.V.E. Y.O.U. [: This really is fantastic. I used earth balance (vegan margarine) to make it vegetarian. num num num num..

The quickest, easiest, most appreciated treat you can make. They taste great right after you make them. I didn't even freeze them!

Agree with other reviewer about adding salt and baking soda to make it taste more authentic. Use this recipe alot and it is great!!

I loved this recipe once I made a few changes. As other reviewers suggested, I added salt <1tsp, used 3/4C white sugar and 3/4C light brown sugar. I also only used 1Tbs vanilla and didn't add the walnuts. Everything else I did as stated. It was really, really good and actually tastes like real cookie dough!

Yummy! We have made these several times- everyone loves them! I add 1/2 tsp salt and soda to make them taste more like cookie dough. I make these dairy free (with Earth Balance margarine) for my son with allergies. I am planning on dipping the few that are left in candy coating (almond bark) to try that. Kids love them and SUPER easy to make! Thanks for sharing! The kids ask for more everytime the bag in the freezer is empty. I usually double the recipe (with no problems) so I'm not making them as often. I've shared the recipe with several people- because everyone LOVES them!

My kids had a great time helping me make these! We rolled them in bite sized balls and froze them for a couple of hours. Then we dipped them in chocolate bark, and decorated with sprinkles and more mini chocolate chips. I got the idea from a friend of mine, and this recipe worked perfectly for it. Thanks!

So yummy. I did like most other reviewers did and used 3/4 cups of white sugar and 3/4 cups of brown sugar. After I let them sit in the fridge for an hour, I dipped them in chocolate. Everyone loved them. I will def. make again as they are very easy to make and tasty

These were a pretty big hit at a family party that my boyfriend and I brought them to. We dipped them in chocolate and that is definitely a nice finishing touch. They are a bit sweet and I would not want more than one, but overall a great recipe. :)

I split the recipe in half since it is just me eating them. The dough was real crumbly, but if you wet your hands often when rolling the dough it sticks together better. They are good, they did not get too frozen, but then who wants to bite into hard dough?

little bland, but kids loved them!

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the fact that this recipe is egg-free. No worrying about salmonella (or whatever disease raw eggs spread, I'm not sure) I added a pinch of salt and a half pinch of baking soda. Makes a great ice cream topping too!

Amazing! Definitely better when covered w chocolate. These were also a huge hit at work! I also had inspiration from this to try other types of cookie dough the same way -- mint choc chips or peanut butter cookie dough.

We didn't care for this in our household it wasn't bad, but wasn't good either. too much of a brown sugar taste, I think if I make this again I'll use both brown and white sugar to see if it tastes more like the real thing and take others suggestions to use salt and baking soda as well, I didn't use walnuts and had to use more water than suggested. Updated: I have made these a couple times with both brown and white sugar and added salt and baking soda like others have suggested and it does taste like cookie dough, I'm leaving it at 3 stars since it's not the original recipe.

My friends and I thought these were pretty good. I agree with another reviewer that I was expecting something awesome and instead got pretty good. I dipped some in chocolate but that was kind of overkill. They were better without the chocolate. I do think it'd be great added to ice cream on a sundae bar though

I like this recipe a lot and use it frequently. I do make one important substitution – I use light brown muscovado sugar. I find this gives the dough even more flavour. Note that if you do use this, you should be able to partially or completely exclude the water – the sugar will be moist enough to bring the dough together. I also add a little salt and baking soda as suggested by others. Thanks, KateLou for a great recipe!
