DIY Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough

107What is it about raw cookie dough that is so addictive!? Well, maybe it is all the sugar, wheat and other garbage they put in the tub?!? Don’t be fooled by that cute little face and that silly little laugh, store bought cookie dough is no good for you no matter how good it taste!

gluten free cookie dough facts

Hmmm… No gluten, but filled with sugar, rice flour, soy lecithin, natural flavor, palm oil, canola oil, corn starch, potato starch, tapioca starch, xanthan gum and more natural flavor for good measure! GOOD GRIEF… this is ridiculous! How many people buy this cookie dough thinking they are eating healthier!?!?

Make your own Grain-Free Cookie Dough

It’s easy and SO much healthier than the stuff you can buy. Eat it with a spoon or pop it in the oven for some yummy, grain-free cookies! Also, consider making these into Cookie Dough Truffles! Simply use a small scoop and dip the formed balls of cookie dough into THIS ganache recipe! 

 Recipe Modifications

This recipe is delicious as listed but can be modified to fit your specific dietary needs and goals. Here are a few modifications that I KNOW will work. If you modify it in any other way, please let me know in the comments below.

  1. Sweetener: Use any sweetener you choose. Be sure to check out THIS post about why I use stevia and VERY small amounts of either raw honey or organic coconut sugar in recipes. As always, taste for sweetness and adjust the sweetness to your liking. 
  2. Nut-Free: For nut-free, substitute ground raw sunflower seeds in the place of the almond flour.
  3. Dairy-Free: Use coconut oil or raw cacao butter in the place of butter. 
  4. Individual Servings: Use a small scoop of cookie dough and form it into balls and dip into THIS ganache.
