Tips for Success:
- Use a stand mixer to beat the butter and sugar together on high for 15 minutes to have the sugar mostly dissolve. The longer the butter and sugar are mixed then the fluffier and lighter your cookie dough truffles will taste.
- Wrap the cookie dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes to set the cookie dough so it’ll be easier to work with. A chill cookie dough is easier to work with and roll into balls.
- You can make the cookie dough in advance and store them wrapped cookie dough in the refrigerator for one month or store in the freezer for up to two months. Place on the counter to thaw to room temperature before rolling into balls.
- I prefer to use dark coating chocolate for dipping the cookie dough balls. The coating chocolate hardens quicker and has a snap when you bite into it. You can buy dark coating chocolate at any cake supply store or online like Amazon. https://amzn.to/2UAxSp3 Melt the coating chocolate in a microwave in 30-second increments until it’s mostly melted then use a rubber spatula to mix until it’s all melted.
- Instead of using dark coating chocolate, you can use semi-sweet chocolate chips to dip the cookie dough balls. For 12 ounces of melted semi-sweet chocolate chips add 1 Tablespoon of coconut oil. The coconut oil will make the chocolate thinner, which is easier to work with and harden quickly.
- One of the best parts about these cookie dough truffles is the fleur de sel aka flake sea salt. It’s thicker pieces of salt that balance the sweet chocolate and cookie dough.
- Store the cookie dough truffles in the fridge for up to one month in an air-tight container. Or store in the freezer for two months.
- Serve at room temperature or frozen for a cold refreshing treat!
What Tools You’ll Need to Make This Cake:
- Electric stand mixer with paddle attachment
- Whisk or sifter
- Rubber Spatula
- Small ice cream scooper with trigger release
- Baking sheet pans
- Parchment Paper
- Long wooden skewer
- Dark coating chocolate
- Fluer de sel or flake sea salt

Let’s Make Some Cookie Dough!
How to Make Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough
In a small-size bowl whisk and stir together the all-purpose flour and salt. Set aside.
In the stand mixer bowl fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar and beat on high for about 15 minutes until light and fluffy and most of the sugar has dissolved.
Turn the mixer to low, add non-dairy creamer and vanilla mix until well incorporated. Slowly add the flour and salt and mix until combined. Scrape down the sides of the bowl. Turn off the mixer and fold in chocolate chips.
Wrap cookie dough in plastic wrap and place in the freezer to chill for 15-30 minutes.
You can make the cookie dough in advance and store the wrapped cookie dough in the refrigerator for one month or store in the freezer for up to two months. Place on the counter to thaw to room temperature before rolling into balls.
Get the Chocolate Ready
In a medium bowl, melt the dark coating chocolate in the microwave in 30-second increments until the chocolate is fully melted.
How to Put It All Together
Use a small ice cream scoop to form 24-36 cookie dough balls. Roll each ball until smooth. Place the cookie dough balls on a sheet of parchment paper and baking sheet tray.
Use a skewer and dip the tip of the skewer into the melted chocolate then stick into a cookie dough ball.
Next, coat the cookie dough ball in the melted chocolate. Gently tap the skewer on the edge of the bowl to shake off any excess chocolate. Place the cookie dough ball onto parchment paper. Carefully spin the skewer out of the cookie dough ball. Then fill in the hole and top with sea salt flakes.
After all the cookie dough balls have been dipped into the chocolate and topped with a sprinkle of sea salt, set aside the tray to cool completely, if you are in a rush for time, place the tray into the fridge to quickly set up the chocolate.
Store in an air-tight container to keep up to one month. Or place into the freezer for up to two months.
