Chefs in Training
Last Friday, I once again babysat for the two little girls I mentioned a few posts back. I love babysitting for them, and I never thought I’d say that because babysitting has never been my favorite thing. But these girls are just so much fun. It’s not like work at all; it’s more like hanging out with my friends.
On Friday night, we made Cookie Dough Balls.
The recipe is so simple that I was curious as to just how much time it takes, from start to finish. So I set a timer. Including baking time, the cookies were done in ten minutes flat! Of course, I did have two of the world’s greatest helpers. Yesterday, the girls’ mom informed me that I’ve created a monster (or rather two monsters). Apparently they spent all day in the kitchen, making cookie dough balls!
The recipe is the same as my Funfetti cookie dough balls. But I’m posting it again below for your convenience, so you don’t have to click over.
Patriotic Cookie Dough Balls
Based off the recipe for Single-Lady Cookies.
- 5 level teaspoons oat flour or white flour (18g)
- scant 1/16th tsp baking soda
- 1/16th tsp salt (less if using margarine)
- 2 tsp oil or pre-melted margarine (can do a fat-free version, but they’ll be cake-ier)
- 1/4 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1-2 tsp sprinkles
- 12 or so chocolate chips (or raisins, nuts, etc)
- sweetener (My testers liked 1 tsp brown + 1 tsp white sugar. Xylitol works too.)
- 1 tsp milk of choice, or as needed (Don’t use water.)
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Combine dry ingredients, then add wet and mix with a fork. 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.) If not eating right away, store in a lidded plastic container to keep soft.
Question of the Day:
Did you like to cook when you were a kid?
I did! One of the first “recipes” I ever created was some type of bean soup. My poor family… I made them eat multiple bowls of my soup every day.
I also liked making: 3 Ingredient Peanut Butter Balls.
Hi Katie,
I recently found out that I have many small cysts and might have PCOS. The new diet style that I am trying to follow is pretty much vegan, but I have no idea how to start. I’ve always eaten a very clean diet (I hardly ever touch sugar or anything not whole grain, etc) but I was following Tom Venuto’s plan, which advocates a large intake of protein. I’ve been eating a fair share of animal-based proteins and I can’t figure out how to replace them without ending up eating too many calories. Do you have any high-protein veggie based food (preferably budget friendly- I’m in high school and I don’t want to empty my or my parent’s wallets ahaha) suggestions, etc? Thank you so much 🙂
Love this idea. And the single serving is the perfect way to do something quick and still write a letter to a solider 🙂
I just made these but with half the sugar and I did not bake it. Delicious 🙂
I just want to say thanks and that I love your recipes they are easy to do with my two year old and they always make the perfect amount! My husband loves the brownie batter pancakes and he has no idea how healthy they are. I love looking at all the recipes and trying new ones. Thanks for all your hard work.
I loved as much as you’ll receive carried out right here.
