These easy candies look like fancy chocolate truffles, but they're really just chocolate chip cookie dough in delicious disguise. P.S.: Don't be tempted to substitute another chocolate chip cookie dough. This simple recipe is eggless to keep the raw dough food safe.

Raw flour can be as dangerous as raw eggs. You should use pasteurized flour, although it's hard to get and expensive. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2072266/Scientists-warn-eating-raw-cookie-dough-FLOUR-riddled-bacteria.html

Something is wrong with this recipe. We just tried making it, carefully following the directions, and when we got to the step to form the dough into balls, the mixture was dry, crumbly, and impossible to shape. We had to find a different edible chocolate chip cookie dough recipe (http://centercutcook.com/edible-egg-less-chocolate-chip-cookie-dough/) to fix it halfway through. Luckily with a little milk, more butter, and more brown sugar we were able to save it.

I would never eat raw Flour.... I will substitute by making my own almond flour, just putting almonds in my ninja blender!

I agree with the above mentioned. It was entirely too dry and crumbly so I added another three tablespoons of butter and it worked like a charm. I also followed the idea to add sea salt on top..PERFECT! A gentle sprinkle of sea salt on top of the dipped truffle off sets the incredible sweetness.

its ok to eat this dough as it has no egg in it its the raw egg that makes raw cookie dough bad.
