Cause my cookie’s too chocolicious for ya babe.
Oops, wrong Beyonce song.
More single-lady cookin!
We’ve already done Cupcakes for One.
And we’ve done single-serving pancakes, pilafs, and cookies… but what about cookie dough balls?
Cookie Dough Balls for One?
That was a query left on my post for Frozen Hot Chocolate.
Sarah C wrote: Could you maybe do a single-lady version of chocolate chip cookie dough balls? I know you have a raw version, but if you could do a baked version, I would LOVE you forever!” Well, love me forever, Sarah, because here’s a recipe for cookie dough balls that yields only three balls—the perfect size for a single lady (or bachelor boy).
Single-Lady Cookie Dough Balls
Based off the recipe for Single-Lady Cookies
- 5 level teaspoons flour (18g)
- scant 1/16th tsp baking soda
- 1/16th tsp salt (lessen or omit if using margarine)
- 2 tsp oil or pre-melted margarine*
- 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
- handful chocolate chips (or raisins, nuts, etc)
- sweetener (My testers liked 1 and 1/2 tsp brown + 1/2 tsp white sugar. More brown sugar makes for a softer cookie.)
- a little non-dairy milk, if extra liquid is needed (Don’t use water.)
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Combine dry ingredients, then add wet and mix with a fork. It’ll seem a little dry at first, but just keep mixing. Form into three little balls (Do not smush.) Cook for 8-9 minutes. (Take out when still a bit undercooked, so they don’t get hard.)
*See link for more about a sugar-free or fat-free variation.
Just enough for one.
Too bad for you, Sports Store Hottie. 😉
Seriously, though, why bother with boyfriends when you can hang around with chocolate chip cookies? If I could marry a cookie, I would. We’d have cute children, no? Hmmm… maybe there’s a reason one cannot marry chocolate. It’d give new meaning to the term man-eater!
If you could marry a food, what food would you choose?
(Weird question, I know.) I might marry a jar of coconut butter. (Is it legal to do so? Maybe in California?) Of course I would eat my husband… but not before we had many babies, so I could eat them too. And now I’ll stop, because I’m afraid I may have scared you all. Oops.

Thank you for this recipe! I’ve been looking for one for baked cookie balls for some time now. I’m wondering, if I needed to make 3 dozen do I just multiply everythng by 12 or are there some adjustments that need to be made when making that many?
Morgan says
Hi Katie i have made this recipe to many times to count but i usually double and just eat it raw its soooooo delicious. But i am wondering how many calories/carbs are in this single recipe?
Symone says
you are literally my favourite person, these were so tasty!! So happy I stumbled upon your blog, it’s living proof that vegan food does not have to be boring 😀
Holly says
I’m going to make a batch of these right NOW. I think I’m going to have to bake my way through your entire blog! I didn’t read ALL of the comments….and I tried looking around the site/page but do you have the nutrition info on these and the funfetti balls? Yum yum going to get baking!!
Sarah says
Not that I’ve validated this or anything, but this is super with pb instead of oil, rolled in one big ball and microwaved for about 40 seconds 😉
Alice says
I think I’d marry strawberries. Or Raspberries. Or your healthy nutella if it’s made with almonds. Or bananas…. No, that’d be too creepy! Cottage cheese would be a good husband.
Can we reintroduce polygamy for marrying food?
Angelica says
These were sooo good! I devoured them the minute they came out of the oven. If I’d have to marry a food it would probably be frozen yogurt 🙂

Hey come to my house and show me

Come to my house and show me it looks good
Kyla says
Oh, these sure are yummy! I make them whenever there is not a desert in the house, and when I crave it. Except for one thing, I’m too lazy to preheat the oven, so I simply microwave them for 30 seconds on a plate. I also make them with applesauce and gluten free flour, it turns out great! Yum! If I could marry a food… well, I might actually marry these cookies right here! haha
Fionna says
Marry a food? Oh, I’d SO marry cinnamon! I eat EVERYTHING with cinnamon! Pudding, rice, pancakes, oatmeal, apples, bananas, peanut butter, chocolate, apple sauce, cake…. I can’t imagine life without cinnamon, I think I might be slightly obsessed =D
Jordan says
I love these so much!!! Really all the single serving desserts but I make these at least 3 times a week… whoops. I love your website!
Colleen says
It’s never too late to leave a comment right? I made these last night (doubled recipe) and cooked with 2 of your single serve chocolate mug cake, just in case there wasn’t enough to satisfy my huge sweet tooth. I am new to making single serve recipes but it is time because my husband and I have been wolfing down huge amounts of healthier desserts, and blowing too much money on expensive coconut oil so these single serves are helping us stay in control. The two of us have eaten a 9 lb bucket of peanut butter in a month and a half so I need to cool it on the sweets. BUT we are still losing weight at the same time because we gave up meats and take out food, so give up those two things and it is a good start people.
