Confetti Cookie Dough Bites
Guess what today is? Only the best [unofficial] food holiday: Cookie Dough Lover’s Day.
Why is it Cookie Dough Lover’s Day? Because Lindsay’s cookbook, The Cookie Dough Lover’s Cookbook, is available for purchase today. And because any day is a day to celebrate cookie dough.
Especially when there are sprinkles involved. You know what I mean?
So last Tuesday, several of us so-called cookie dough addicts lovers had a Twitter conversation about said love affair and decided to unofficially declare today a national food holiday because: a) we can and because b) seemingly everyone loves cookie dough!
So go ahead, feast your eyes on my egg-free confetti cookie dough creation: confetti cookie dough bites.
Not only do I have a thing with cookie dough, I have a thing with sprinkles. And as I mentioned yesterday, I will always choose sprinkles (or Skittles) over chocolate, so my choice for egg-free cookie dough was decidedly a sweet, sugary dough with colorful sprinkles!

Confetti Cookie Dough Bites
Yield: 32 1-inch bites
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Egg-free cookie dough bites studded with multi-colored sprinkles. Perfect for smoothies, blondie bars, or afternoon snacking at the pool!
Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter, room temperature
1 cup sugar
1 Tbs. brown sugar
2 tsp. vanilla extract
2 Tbs. milk or cream
1 cup flour
1/4 teaspoons salt
1/4 cup sprinklesDirections:
Beat the butter and sugars together until fluffy, about 2 minutes. Mix in the vanilla milk or cream. Slowly mix in the flour and salt and mix until fully incorporated. Fold in the sprinkles.
Roll into 1-inch bites and place onto a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Refrigerate to allow the bites to harden.
Cassie's Notes:
I can't lie and say that I didn't eat several of these as a snack when I made them. But they have many uses: roll them into smaller balls to add to ice cream; use them in smoothies, or instead of rolling into bites, spread them onto a baked batch of brownies, blondies, or cookie bars and refrigerate until set; add a small amount to the cored center of a cupcake before frosting for a surprise center; add 3-4 more tablespoons of milk or cream and mix thoroughly, then serve with graham crackers, fruit, marshmallows, etc. for a fun dip!Adapted from egg-free cookie dough recipe by Lindsay Landis.

These are adorable and so much fun!
Such a great idea! I’m so going to have to try these — LOVE sprinkles!!! 🙂
I love the way you guys are celebrating Lindsay’s book. You guys are just too sweet. And man, these look dangerous! I could imagine just having a stash in front of me and eating it until it’s all gone!
My daughter would LOVE these! She is all about the sprinkles. With her birthday coming up I’m tucking this away to make her as a treat. 🙂
These look wonderful, I’m not sure I would do anything other than eat these straight up!

Which is exactly how I ate them!
yeah for cookie dough day!!! these look awesome 🙂
Cassie replied: — June 6th, 2012 @ 11:29 am
thanks!!
So cute! And I love all the suggestions you gave for extra ways to use them (not that I’m at all opposed to eating one or eight of them straight off the baking sheet). 🙂

thanks Tara!
Oh yes. I like this.
So cute! Yum!
1/4 cup sprinkles?! Haha. That’s just awesome. These are super cute. I don’t think I’ve ever put sprinkles in anything but I know that I need to change this. 🙂

thanks erin!
Oh my word, two of my favorite things ever (cookie dough and sprinkles) combined into the perfect snack! These wouldn’t stand a chance around me 🙂
These are so cute and creative! I am totally going to make these with the kids. And I love your other ideas about what to do with the, especially using them in ice cream or brownies!
Cassie replied: — June 6th, 2012 @ 11:32 am
Thanks Alyssa!
Yum! These are so cute and I love the sprinkles! Cookie Dough Lover’s Day is a great idea. 🙂
These are amazing, Cassie! I want to make a bunch of little ones and throw them into everything. Because when they’re small they don’t count, right? 😉
Cassie replied: — June 6th, 2012 @ 11:33 am
Exactly!!
adorable!
Oh my!!! These are so stinkin’ cute!
Cassie replied: — June 6th, 2012 @ 11:34 am
Thanks Laurie!
These look so delicious! WOW. I don’t know if I could trust myself with these…
I believe this needs to become an official holiday immediately. These look amazing – I love the confetti! 🙂
I need these in my life. stat.
Come. To. Mama!!!
Most adorable cookie dough balls I’ve seen in ages. These are a keeper, Cassie! Prepare to see them pinned everywhere I am predicting!! 🙂

Thanks Averie!
What a brillant idea! These are lovely little cookie dough bites!
Great idea! cookie dough and sprinkles…what more could you want 🙂
Can you please mail me a dozen of these? No, two! 🙂
Oh man! Delish!
When you stick those gorgeous cookie bites in a dough like that, it gives me free reign to eat them like appetizers. Awesome treat and psyched about Lindsey’s new book!
Cassie replied: — June 6th, 2012 @ 11:26 am
that is exactly how i ate them. every last one!
LOL…I meant in a bowl…not in a “dough” Please excuse my under-coffeed brain 😉
I think i’ll bring my little brother a batch of these home next time I visit, he’s a cookie dough fool, and maybe i’ll get some cool sister cred 😉
Ha I love the sprinkles. You should’ve hidden a skittle inside of each one! 😉
Cassie replied: — June 6th, 2012 @ 11:35 am
Why didn’t I think of that?!
love it – so not surprised you threw sprinkle in there! I need to try making some cookie dough bites. Problem is I would not be able to stop eating them
I am OBVIOUSLY in love with these little bites Cassie! I pre-ordered Lindsay’s cookbook and I could NOT be more excited. I recently made similar balls – but with golden oreos + cream cheese, covered in white chocolate and sprinkles. I need to try the cookie dough version. Sprinkles make everything better. 🙂
Nothing beats little cookies dough bites especially when they have sprinkles in them! Love these!
Oh my. Those are like Funfetti Truffles!
okay these look insanely good! Headed to pin them
Cassie replied: — June 6th, 2012 @ 11:36 am
Thanks Alison!
My goodness, I think I’d inhale the entire batch! These look awesome.
These are so fun!
Making these. Sooooooo. Freaking. Making. These.
These look fabulous. i am all about sprinkles.
Sprinkles make the best celebration foods 🙂 Love this national holiday idea and love these!
OMG you definitely took cookie dough to a total different next level!! They look like frozen yogurt bites, but so much better!
Cassie replied: — June 6th, 2012 @ 11:25 am
I bet they would be amazing mixed into yogurt!
These treats look so festive and colorful! Totally fun to create. Great for parties and kiddie events.
Yes, everyone loves cookie dough – especially eggless versions that are meant to be eaten raw! Confetti cookie dough bites are so fun – great recipe!
Cassie replied: — June 6th, 2012 @ 11:22 am
Thanks!
I love these especially with the sprinkles! makes it so much more festive and fun 🙂
You do realize I would stuff my pie hole with the whole batch right. These are adorable. I love these so much. Man I wish we were neighbours.
Cassie replied: — June 6th, 2012 @ 11:22 am
Oh me too Kim, me too! 🙂
Those looke like they taste EXACTLY like fun fetti cake dough. Yummy! I will have to make a batch!
These look totally addictive, and that cookbook is #1 on my wishlist…every recipe I’ve seen from it so far looks incredible!
Beyond precious. There must be something wrong with me – all I can think about is tiny little bits of these in trail mix. Help!
Cassie replied: — June 6th, 2012 @ 11:20 am
Oh goodness, what a great idea!
How awesome would it be if we made this an OFFICIAL official holiday and got the day off from work to eat cookie dough?? AMAZE.
Oh i love the sound of these. Funfetti is one of my favorite cake flavors but I think I’d love it even more in cookie dough ball form!
Cassie replied: — June 6th, 2012 @ 11:19 am
Amen to that! Sprinkles are always the best!
This is great Cassie! I can’t wait for my own cookie dough creation next week! Sprinkles sure do make everything better…
Cassie replied: — June 6th, 2012 @ 11:21 am
I can’t wait either!
So cute! I love all the ideas you give for the dough!
Cassie replied: — June 6th, 2012 @ 11:20 am
Thanks Shawn!
How fun are these!? My girls would LOVE these!!
yep… these look like the best eggless cookie dough bites ever! I love sugar cookie dough and can never resist it!
I love it! Eating cookie dough has always my favorite part of making cookies and I love all the cookie dough bite variations.
These are so cute – I love this whole cookie dough concept! I am with you on the whole sprinkles thing 🙂
Oh my! I would eat all of these! Cookie dough is such a horrible/wonderful weakness!
My preordered copy was waiting for me when I got back from Europe this weekend! I am so excited to dig into it.
I love these! And the bowls…. I have them too!
Hurrah, that’s what I was seeking for, what a data! existing here at this weblog, thanks admin of this website.
This looks amaazing! 🙂
