Raw Choc-Chip Cookie Dough Truffles

January 29, 2016 By JJ 10 Comments

Raw Choc-Chip Cookie Dough Truffles

Truth be told, you really can’t go wrong with chocolate chip cookie dough.

Of course there will be an argumentative few who shake their fists and insist this is not proper cookie dough and to them I say pshaw — go on and eat your raw eggs and raw flour, if you need me I’ll be watching from the corner with a cup of tea and a pile of cookie dough truffles.

Raw Choc-Chip Cookie Dough Truffles

These babies were made for a bake sale late last year and took pride of place alongside those Lemon, Macadamia & Coconut Raw Truffles and a jar of Choc Hazelnut Raw Truffles.

They are all my favourites, depending on the day.

Oh, and if you’re so inclined you could roll the dough into balls then flatten them slightly to make raw cookies instead of truffles — or simply, in ode to more traditional cookie dough batter, eat it straight from a spoon. Either way you’ll win.

Raw Choc-Chip Cookie Dough TrufflesBecause raw cookie dough is the best part of making cookies, obviously.

Makes 30

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 cup raw cashews (300g)
  • ¼ cup coconut sugar or rapadura sugar
  • ¼ cup coconut oil, melted
  • 1 tsp vanilla paste or vanilla powder
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • ½ tsp cinnamon
  • approx ¼ cup maple syrup, to taste
  • ¼ cup chopped 70% chocolate (50g)

METHOD

In a food processor or blender blitz cashews to a fine meal. Add coconut sugar and blitz again to mix.

Add coconut oil, vanilla, salt and cinnamon and pulse to create a paste. Add maple syrup to taste, pulsing only until just mixed. Yes, you’re adding a second sweetener, but how much you need is up to you based on how sweet you want the truffles.

Fold through chopped chocolate and refrigerate mixture for 30 mins to firm up. Divide into 30 pieces and roll into truffles. Store in fridge, serve cold.

COOK’S NOTES

  • Mini chocolate chips can be used in place of chopped chocolate. If you’re vegan or dairy-free make sure you’re using dairy-free chocolate. Same for soy-free.
  • Over-blending while adding the syrup can make the mixture split and no one wants that. Pulse until just-combined or even stir the syrup in by hand.

    Yes yes yes! These are gorgeous JJ! My husband loves (traditional) raw cookie dough but I’m not a fan of giving him questionable raw egg and flour to chow down on (I mean, very occasionally but he’d happily eat it every week!). These, however, tick ALL the boxes in terms of nutrition plus deliciousness. Love the cashew and coconut oil base. Definitely gonna make a batch real soon (then maybe take an photo of him holding one, ha!) xx

    Hi JJ, would you mind adding a weight measurement to the coconut oil, as I added 1/4 cup melted and it seems too much. Cheers.

      Hi Alison – I’d just end up weighing a 1/4 c of coconut oil! 60ml is what you’ll want. If it’s overly oily it may be the mixture got too warm during blending and the oils split out instead of incorporating in when the syrup was added. Try refrigerating the mixture then pulse briefly to combine before rolling! ~ JJ

I took this video on Jan 1. I even wrote a caption I took this video on Jan 1. I even wrote a caption and everything. And I intended to post it that day as a reflection moving into a new year. But instead, mom and I went out for pizza and wine, and then it was Jan 2, and so on and so on. 
🌀
So instead you’re getting it on Feb 1. A new day and another new month (but what is a new month or a new year, other than a societal convention really). 
☀️
Because, each day, each sunrise, we have the opportunity to start anew - no matter how big or little that start may be. A chance to take another step forward - no matter how many steps back you feel you’re fighting against. 
🌀
Whether this past year brought blinding joy or paralysing grief (and in whatever measure of balance or imbalance), I hope each new day sees the landscape of your life look one step closer to what you imagine it to be. And that when the waves roll in and change that landscape, you can roll with it and see the beauty and possibility on the other side.
🌊
If you’ve made it this far, congratulations, have a cookie 🍪 And I’ll leave you with the rolling waves and blue sky of a California beach in January. I truly hope this year sees us all grow stronger and move forward with each new day. Going backwards is simply not an option.

…
When the middle little insisted on buying quail eggs over Christmas, but due to allll the other food we never cooked them, I simply couldn’t let the little guys go to waste. 
🥚
Could I have made one dish? Of course. Did I instead prepare quail eggs four ways, bake mini loaves of brioche, make mini waffles, dig through the prop closet for the smallest dishes, and set up an entire table? Of course I did. 
💥
Swipe to the end for reference on the size of the eggs and loaf.

My go-to pizza topping combo 🍕 Made on that dou My go-to pizza topping combo 🍕 Made on that dough from a couple weeks ago and voiced by the middle little (who is about as different from her younger sister as you can get!) 💥.
🍕
Sometimes this combo gets prawns too 🍤. Most of the time I don’t bother mixing the ingredients in a bowl and just layer them on top. The cheese is a hard goat cheese (because I can’t do 🐄). The ‘spices’ 🌱 is Sicilian oregano. The measurements are random at best - a handful of this, a splash of that. 
🍕
If you have a fave veggie or seafood pizza combo I’d love to hear it. Because as Ms.S says, voila, yummy yummy pizza!
