Yummy, yummy, yummy, I’ve got edible cookie dough in my tummy.  You know you’re in heaven when you can eat eggless cookie dough.  This Chocolate Cookie Dough Truffle recipe was inspired from a red velvet truffle recipe.  Our weaknesses consist only of a few things: chocolate, cookie dough, and a good dessert that can combine the two.

So what happens when you combine everything together?

Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Truffles

  • 1 box Chocolate Cake Mix
  • 1 + 1/2 cups, divided Butter
  • 1 package Cheesecake Pudding Mix
  • 1/4 cup Vegetable Oil
  • 2 + 1/4 cups Flour
  • 3/4 cup Brown Sugar
  • 3/4 cup White Sugar
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp Vanilla
  • 8 oz, melted Chocolate Chips
  • 1-2 cups Scrap chocolate or Mini Chocolate Chips

Directions:

  1. Start up the oven to a cool 325 degrees. Time to let it preheat.
  2. Melt only 1 stick (1/2 cup) of butter.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, melted butter, 3 eggs, pudding mix, and veggie oil.
  4. Grease or flour a baking pan. A good technique to use was the one I used with my sister’s cake.
  5. Pour the batter into the pan and spread.
  6. Time to bake! Pop in the oven for about 15 to 20 minutes.
  7. While that’s baking, prepare the egg-less, edible cookie dough.
  8. Combine the 2 softened stick of butter, flour, brown sugar, white sugar, salt, and vanilla in a large bowl. You can combine the everything but the flour and then introduce the flour into that mixture. But if you have a hand mixer or stand, you can just throw everything in to make things easier.
  9. Once the cake is done, take it out and let if cool off. Once cooled, spread the cookie dough over the cake. You can use your hands or a spatula.
  10. Melt your 8 ounces of chocolate chips for 30 seconds at a time in the microwave. Remember to stir constantly as it heats up.
  11. Pour over top of the cookie dough layer and spread around.
  12. Top it off with chunks of chocolate or chocolate chips.
  13. Let the chocolate set and harden before eating. We placed them into the fridge to speed up this process.

      Hi Ty, we used a 13×9 metal pan. If you’re using glass or a smaller pan, plan on keeping it in the oven a little longer – thanks for commenting!
