She who has cookie dough is never alone.
There are two explanations for this. One: if you have cookie dough, your friends will all want some too, and thus they will gravitate towards you. And two: even if your friends do not come running (which, by the way, means you have super-odd friends), you’ve still got cookie dough to keep you company!
Above, a delicious batch of Chocolate-Chip Cookie Dough Babies.
My friends were all busy yesterday, so I made new friends. Chocolate friends. Healthy and sugar-free cookie dough balls that taste exactly like way better than cookie dough Larabars.
If you have not tried this recipe yet, I highly recommend it!!
I devoured my new friends.
Without remorse.
Yeah, maybe you don’t really wanna be friends with me.
And soon…
The babies need siblings: Chocolate Peanut Butter Balls

I am kind of an introvert and I usually enjoy my time alone but after a few months being alone 99% of my spare time I can say that no sight is beautiful enough and no baked good is delicious enough to erase the taste of disappointment. So recently in my “alone” time I’ve simply been feeling lonely.

And I forgot to say that the new banner looks really nice. But does the title mean that we are going to see desserts only from now on?

The new header is CUTE! I love it! My alone time is watching the Bachelorette. Ha ha ha! It’s my one night I sit down and just veg out (and eat yummy food) while the husband and my twins boys are asleep. 🙂
Joyce @ Jranola Joyce says
Love all your recipes!! 🙂

Oh yes, sometimes I need my alone time. And as my parents and sister are on vacation, I have the house all by myself the whole week. Lots of alone time!
I am planning to try at least one new recipe every day and the most will be from your blog 😉
Yesterday I made the brownie batter dip and I’ve just finished my breakfast with the blueberry pancakes. Nomnomnom
Other things I love to do in my alone time (besides cooking) is working out, yoga and playing on The Sims :p Oh, and my music will always be on pretty loud, so a lot of dancing and singing will be happening too.
I like the new header too 🙂

I do all sorts of stuff during “alone time” – read, go for walks, go shopping, hit up downtown, watch tv, listen to music, and pretty much anything else I feel like. Perhaps it’s because I spend alot of time alone, but meh, whatever.
Karen @ She Flies With Her Own Wings says
Love the new blog header…it definitely highlights the focus of your blog!
The cookie dough babies look amazing, are those mini muffin liners you put them in? Great idea!
Chocolate-Covered Katie says
I think they’re either mini liners or truffle liners 🙂
Lyza says
Katie I love the new header. Gorgeous.
I have one question about cookie dough balls and babies in general…do you have a suggestion for what people like me can use with nut intolerances? I was thinking maybe sunflower seeds, but I’m not sure it would be as yummy. Sunflower and sesame seeds? LOL I have no idea…
Chocolate-Covered Katie says
Hey girl!
One thing first: are you allowed coconut products? (If so, I have a few recommendations.) Otherwise, maybe you could try a sunbutter base for the pb babies or 3-ingredient pb balls? I’ve also always wondered if you could sub protein powder, but I’ve never tried it. If you try it, let me know how it works!
Lyza says
Oh yes, coconut’s fine! 🙂 These are great ideas!! I’ll have to give that one a try. 🙂 Thankyou so much for taking your time to reply!! 🙂
Jae says
I love the new header! It’s so you! 🙂
Stephanie @ StephSnacks says
I like the header! Very cute—I like seeing the blogger right away, it helps make an easier connection. As for me, alone time is essential. I generally like to go for a walk, get coffee, or have a mani/pedi!
Anita says
Just wanted to say I absolutely love your recipes, I’m a total CCK convert! The new header looks awesome, very cute! Alone time is always nice to have and key to keeping yourself sane!!

I just made the fudge babies. Please tell me the nutrition info that says 175 calories is for the whole batch! I ate it all! Is the idea to form the whole batch into a rectangle log and call it a Larabar? I hope so because I made a bunch of little balls (too late to count how many) and rolled them in mini chips and ate them all!
Thanks for the awesome recipes. I just found this site this week and LOVE IT! I have a sweet tooth, but am really trying to eat healthy! I love the healthy alternatives.
