No Bake Sugar Cookie Dough – The perfect amount of sugar cookie dough for one! Eggless and takes just minutes to make!

No Bake Sugar Cookie Dough

After discovering the joys of making edible no bake cookie dough at home all the way back in 2017, it has been one of my go-to easy desserts! With Christmas right around the corner, I wanted to try taking one of my favorite flavors and turning it into cookie dough – sugar cookies! Now this is really just a super basic edible cookie dough recipe but you can jazz it up as much as you want by adding fun sprinkles, white chocolate chips, chocolate chunks, cinnamon chips, etc. There are so many possibilities!

Now this recipe may be no bake but it comes with a stipulation. You should really cook the flour before making it which is a 5 minute process and you can always cook extra so that if you want to make more no bake cookie dough, you won’t have to worry about cooking it right then.

Common Questions About Making Edible Cookie Dough

Is it safe to eat cookie dough?

If there is raw eggs or raw flour, technically no. While all of us have definitely had our fair share of cookie dough right off the spatula, raw eggs and flour are a no-no. Now that being said, it is up to you how concerned you are about raw flour but it is a raw food and there could be bacteria in it.

How do I bake flour?

If you are concerned about any bacteria in flour, preheat oven to 350°F, spread flour in a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil, and bake for 5 minutes. It’s a super easy process.

What other flavors of edible cookie dough can I make?

There are so many options! Some of my favorite types of cookie dough include –

Chocolate Chip
Snickerdoodle
Peanut Butter
Gingerbread

Can I turn edible cookie dough into cookies?

No, please do not do that. There are no eggs, baking soda, or baking powder so your cookies would turn out flat and sad.

Red Velvet Cake Mix Cookies

Red Velvet Cake Mix Cookies – An easy dessert made with just 4 ingredients! Perfect for holidays such as Christmas or Valentine’s Day!

Red Velvet Cake Mix Cookies

Did you know that you can make cookies from cake mix?! Until recently, I had heard that it was a thing you could do but I hadn’t tried it. With Christmas around the corner, I saw a bunch of red velvet cake mix boxes at the store and remembered that you could make cookies out of it and knew that this was the time to give it a go. I was told that these were “literally the best cookies” that I had ever made so that should really show how awesome these cookies are!

Now one of my favorite parts of making cake mix cookies is that they are made 4 simple ingredients with one of those being totally optional (but a delicious add in). It’s just 1 box of red velvet cake mix, oil, eggs, and white chocolate chips. That’s it! So easy to make!

Common Questions About Making Cake Mix Cookies

How can I use boxed cake mix to make cookies?

Making cookies out of boxed cake mix is just about these easiest thing ever! By using less liquid, you are able to turn the cake mix into cookies as they will be able to form together better than the loose batter that is used to make cakes. You also have to use eggs and once everything is mixed together, you can scoop the cookies onto a lined sheet pan and cook them.

Can I use other flavors of boxed cake mix?

Of course! Some of my favorite boxed varieties to use include –

Yellow cake
Triple chocolate cake
Strawberry cake
Carrot cake
Lemon cake
Spice cake

Can I decorate this cookies?

Sure! I personally put some white chocolate straight into the mix before baking but you could also use regular chocolate chips, drizzle melted white chocolate, or even use a can of cream cheese frosting on top of the cookies once they have cooled.

No Bake Nutter Butter Truffles – No bake truffles made from nutter butters and topped with white chocolate and a drizzle of peanut butter! These truffles are perfect for the holidays or as a dessert at any party!

Nutter Butter Truffles

I cannot get enough of these nutter butter truffles. So I will be the first to say that my favorite packaged cookies are a tie between nutter butters and golden oreos. After how awesome my golden oreo truffles turned out, I knew that I just had to try turning nutter butters into a truffle too! This may sound crazy to say but I think these truffles are even better than the original cookies were!

Now I used white chocolate to coat these the nutter butter truffles but you could totally use normal chocolate instead and they would taste great! It is completely up to which you personally prefer.

Common Questions About Making Nutter Butter Truffles

What is a nutter butter?

A nutter butter is a peanut butter sandwich cookie. Both the cookies and the filling are peanut butter flavored.

Can I use chocolate instead of white chocolate?

You sure can! You could also roll them in a mix of chocolate and white chocolate or even just drizzle them with chocolate.

How should I decorate these truffles?

I used warm peanut butter and drizzled it on top of the truffles but you could also use sprinkles or just drizzle chocolate on top of the truffles instead.

Can I freeze the truffles?

Yes, freezing the truffles until you are ready to serve them works great.

What should I do if my truffle filling isn’t forming together?

If your truffles filling (nutter butters and cream cheese) is loose and isn’t forming into balls, try adding a bit more cream cheese and blending again. That helps them form together more.

No Bake Eggnog Cookie Truffles

December 10, 2020 by madi

Eggnog Cookie Truffles – Easy no bake truffles made from eggnog cookie dough and rolled with white chocolate! These truffles are perfect for the holidays or as a dessert for any party!

No Bake Eggnog Cookie Truffles

I have been loving truffles this season! After making eggnog cookies the other day, I was curious if I could turn those same flavors into a truffle. In the end, I ended up using eggnog in an adapted version of my snickerdoodle cookie balls. The only hiccup I ran into was I tried mixing eggnog and white chocolate together for the coating around the truffles and it worked really badly so I suggest sticking to just using white chocolate as the coating. If you want more eggnog, you could mix 1/2 cup powdered sugar and a few tablespoons of eggnog into a thick icing and drizzle it on top of the white chocolate coating. These truffles are great to make and add to a holiday cookie tray or just to enjoy at home with a glass of eggnog.

Common Questions About Making Eggnog Truffles

Can I use chocolate instead of white chocolate?

You sure can! You could also roll them in a mix of chocolate and white chocolate or even just drizzle them with chocolate.

Can I freeze the truffles?

Yes, freezing the truffles until you are ready to serve them works great.

What can I decorate eggnog truffles with?

Sprinkles or just a little dusting of nutmeg or cinnamon are great garnishes but additionally, you could always just leave them plain too!

Can I use homemade eggnog?

Yes! I use my homemade eggnog recipe for these truffles every time I make them.

Eggnog Cookies

Eggnog and sugar cookies are two of my favorite holiday flavors. Some how, I had never thought to combine those two things until I was brainstorming how to make eggnog cookie truffles and realized I could just make the truffles with eggnog flavored sugar cookies. The idea blew my mind and I set to work trying to make the perfect eggnog cookies!

Can I add icing to eggnog cookies?

Of course! I included an optional icing recipe in the recipe card down below but you can also turn it into a frosting by using a little less liquid.

Can I add rum to eggnog cookies?

I suggest using 1 teaspoon of rum extract rather than straight up rum. It will taste better in the dough and be safe for all ages to eat.

Soft Gingersnap Cookies

December 3, 2020 by madi

Soft Gingersnap Cookies – A chewy spin on classic gingersnap cookies! These cookies are perfect for holiday baking and gifting!

Soft Gingersnap Cookies

I am so excited that it is holiday baking season again. So far this year, I have made sugar cookies and a whole bunch of batches of these soft gingersnap cookies. My family loves this recipe so much that they are all gone within an hour every time I make them. I love eating these chewy gingersnaps with a nice big glass of homemade eggnog while listening to some Christmas music, it really makes it feel like the holiday season.

Now it may be contentious whether these are gingersnaps, molasses cookies, or ginger cookies because they have a soft and chewy texture but I decided to call them soft gingersnaps because of their flavor being spot on to a gingersnap cookie. I think of that as the branch of cookie that has a stronger ginger flavor than say a molasses cookie but hey, call these cookies whatever you want!

Something I also tried doing with these cookies is turning them into truffles. For the recipe, make sure to click HERE!

Common Questions About Making Gingersnap Cookies

Why are they called gingersnaps?

They are called gingersnaps because of the heavy ginger flavor and because of their crunchy texture.

What is the difference between gingerbread and gingersnaps?

The main difference between gingersnaps and gingerbread is that gingerbread tends to be a bit chewier overall then a gingersnap and it is usually rolled out and cut into shapes.

Can I decorate these cookies?

You sure could! While they aren’t a great cookie to cut into shapes, you could instead drizzle white chocolate on top and add sprinkles.

Sugar Cookie Truffles – Sugar cookie truffles topped with white chocolate and sprinkles! These truffles are perfect for Christmas cookie exchanges!

Sugar Cookie Truffles

Truffles are one of my favorite holiday treats to make. Whether you call them cookie balls or truffles, they are so tasty! After having leftover sugar cookies when I made them a few weeks back, I decided that I should do something crazy and blend them up with some cream cheese and roll them in white chocolate. It ended up turning out so well that I am sharing them with you guys today!

The biggest thing to keep in mind when you are making these truffles is that they take about an hour from start to finish. You have to let them freeze for about 30 minutes or else they will just crumble when you try to coat them. You can always just skip coating them if you want and just have them as cookie balls, they taste just as amazing!

Of course! You can use homemade sugar cookies, sugar cookies from a mix, or even store bought sugar cookies. I love to use leftover sugar cookies from the holidays but it’s totally up to you!
