Thanks to Risa at www.bakedperfection.com who shared this great recipe for a kid friendly after dinner treat! I have been wanting to make these for the longest time, but haven’t found the time until tonight!
The best part? You don’t need to turn on the oven. And the cookie dough is made without eggs, so no worry about getting sick!
Here is what I used, adapted from Risa’s original recipe:
1 cup flour
1/4 tsp salt
dash cinnamon
1/2 stick of butter, softened
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 cup chocolate chips
1-2 TB. of skim milk, until the dough comes together
I just put all the ingredients except the skim milk into my mixer and mixed for a few minutes. Maybe because I used half the butter, the batter was kind of dry, so I added a few tablespoons of skim milk and it turned out perfect!
I used wooden skewers for kabobs for the lollipop sticks
Just roll the dough into small balls and insert the sticks in them. When its complete, freeze for about 20 minutes.
I used almond bark in chocolate flavor and vanilla flavor to coat the cookie dough balls. It melts in a microwave safe bowl and once you coat the cookie dough balls, it dries very fast.
The almond bark can be found in major grocery store chains right next to the chocolate chips.
They turned out really good! The leftovers I am storing in the freezer, if one of the kids wants one, they can just set it on a plate and in a few minutes it will be softened enough to eat. Now, I know these aren’t the healthiest thing to eat, but because they are sweet, one is enough!
Thanks Risa for posting such a fun recipe, check out her site for many other great desserts!
These are way too cute! And ahem, kids of ALL ages would definitely gobble those babies up. 😉
Oh. My gosh. These sound so good in this heat. What a creative treat!
Fun! I’ve seen a lot of cake pops around lately, but not cookie dough ones!
These look so adorable! I would love to make these cookie pops with my daughter!
I’ve never seen anything like this, how cute! I bet they’d be fun to bring to a July 4th event to share!
These are so great!! My little nephews would kill for one of these pops!
oh i am so glad you commented on my blog because I checked out your cookie dough pop post in return! Those things are amazing ideas and i totally must make them soon! Wow! You are talented!
You probably had never heard of my training splits because I made them up myself a few years ago! haha!
Great blog!
I am so glad you made these and loved them. I have yet to make them again since the first time and now I definitely want to!
What a fun and pretty treat! And I love that they don’t have to be baked…
They’re SOooo adorable! They would be so great for gifts…(ME)
These look terrific! AND no eggs so my little guy can have them too. You’re so smart. I’m making these this weekend. Have a good 4th!
LOL my roommates have been wanting to make “cookies on a stick” for a long time. These look good!
