look delicious!!
I used maple syrup v honey just because I like the taste better. I used normal sized choc chips, but I think they would be better with mini ones. Very, very delicious though. Exactly what I needed after today.
I used coconut flour instead of almond flour by error! Total mess up. I then realised I don’t have any almond flour so ended up using almond meal instead. Was ok. Live and learn I guess 🙂
Very good…almost taste like a mounds / almond joy…must be the coconut oil. Super easy to make. Glad there were only a few of them–otherwise I might have eaten them all.
This can’t really be considered paleo. Honey, although raw, is Still a natural sweetener/sugar. Any type of sugar can cause inflammation in the body and therefore is not ideal for a paleo diet. When looking for a sweetener try using dates. Dates are an extremely sweet fruit and because the sugar comes from A paleo approved source it would be a better choice. Chocolate chips also contain white processed sugar.
raw, unrefined, unheated honey is a “paleo approved” sweetener. Dates also raise blood sugar and are very high in carbs.
Honey causes inflammation? Really? http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15117561 “Natural honey lowers plasma glucose, C-reactive protein, homocysteine, and blood lipids in healthy, diabetic, and hyperlipidemic subjects: comparison with dextrose and sucrose”
Stop being rude on someone’s blog who is sharing their recipes for free, especially when you’re completely wrong.
Delicious! 🙂 And for once I don’t feel guilty after eating cookie dough! I used almond meal because I couldn’t find any almond flour, I was wondering what is the difference?
Thanks for the feedback. Almond meal and flour are the same thing, just ground up almonds. This is the one I use and recommend
Yum! Can’t wait to make these tonight for a girl’s ‘night in!’
PS-How do you get those Amazon items (Products I used for this recipe) to show on your post?
Wow, YUM! They look so perfect and easy to just pop into your mouth. And made with healthy ingredients? I’m in. I love healthy cookie dough!
Is there something I can substitute for the honey? My boys are not allowed to have honey on their FODMAP diet.
how about raw coconut palm sugar or liquid stevia?
What is the nutritional value on this?
yah wondering nutritional count on this as well thanks!
I don’t have coconut milk, could I sub with something else?
raw milk, almond milk or any other milk of your choose should be good.
could i bake them if i want to?
yes, I think it would be no problem to bake these, but I haven’t tried it. Please let me know how it goes.
Can you suggest a nut free flour that coud replace the almond?
You could try using coconut flour, but you will need to add a lot less and I am not sure how much. Try adding 1 tbsp at the time until you get the right consistency.
Fantastic! I was craving chocolate tonight and I wanted something other than just eating enjoy life chocolate chips plain! Loved these! We made a double batch, so glad we did! My kids liked them too!
🙂
Could I use vanilla sugar instead of vanilla extract? If I can, how much vanilla sugar do put in?
Tonje, vanilla extract is pure vanilla with no added sugar. If you substitute vanilla sugar for the vanilla extract you will need to adjust the amount of honey added and I am not sure how much to add without doing some testing first.
I added a little bit of salt because my moms choc chip cookies always had salt and I loved the contrast. These were good, my kiddos even liked them. I used carob chips, but next time I will use the real thing….. I am sure it would set these over the top!! Thank you!
i have to say I am very new to the Paleo life but am really looking it! The hardest part is my daughter I want to satisfy he snacking and sweet tooth once in awhile and allow her treats this was a fantastic and amazing discovery for me all the recipes are truly amazing! I’m so happy I found you and this particular recipe because she loved cookie dough before and now I can still let her have it!!!
🙂
These are just as yummy baked. My daughter even added berries to the mix instead of Choc chips as we didn’t have them on hand and they were a winner!! Great recipe
Thanks Sharyn!
Thanks so much for this recipe…yummmm, my kids are going to love it!

I just finished making these. They’re in the refrigerator firming up now. I can’t wait to try one later! Oh, and I loved the video. Thank you.
I’m looking at these and many other paleo recipes. I can’t have sugar right now and wondered how to have sugar free when the chocolate chips, in all these recipes, have sugar?
Laurel, the chocolate chips I use is 70% dark. You can substitute them for a darker chocolate, 80% cacao or higher. Another option is to use raw cacao nibs or dried fruit.
Mine are a little on the oily side. Should I use less coconut oil? Thanks!
Karen, I am thinking maybe the almond flour you used is more oily. What brand did you use? Also, you might have over mixed the dough, which makes for an oilier cookie dough.
Did you measure you coconut oil melter?
This recipe needs work.
Vicki, can you please tell me why you think this recipe needs work? Your feedback is valuable to me. Thanks.
Oh, these look insanely good!! I can’t wait to try them!!
Thanks so much for submitting this great recipe to our Fast and Easy Paleo Recipe link party!
I’ve gotta say…I’m a doughy fanatic. The measurements in the recipe say it’ll make 10 servings…but for my family of 5, i’m going to have to do at least 4x the amount it calls for. Can you replace the honey with maple syrup? Any other substitute for coconut milk – maybe more coconut oil?
Chris, you can substitute the honey for maple syrup. For the coconut milk, you can use raw milk, pastured heavy cream, or a nut milk like almond milk. If you use a nut milk, add less to start because since it contains less fat it might make the recipe too wet.
Love, love, love your webside. Its delicious and healthy. Am a IFBB Brasiilian Fitness Athelte and love eat healthy! Thank U for this webside. My happy regards! Norma!
Obrigada Norma! Se tiver alguma duvida sobre as receitas me da um toque.
I have to say they look really good but don’t taste great at all. I could barely eat one. I put them in the freezer for a later time. I really enjoyed the chocolate chips by themselves which curbed my craving for something sweet. On to something new for my next sweet tooth craving next weekend! Thank you for sharing this recipe.
These look delish and I can’t wait to try them. Are the stats for this recipe published anywhere? Looking for calorie and carb counts. Thanks!

When you drizzled on the chocolate, did it solidify? did you add coconut oil to it first?
Amy, I don’t mix coconut oil in the chocolate used for drizzling. The chocolate does solidify. Two tips: first keep your truffles in the fridge while you melt the chocolate so they cool the chocolate fast when you drizzled over them. Second, melt half the chocolate in a double boiler, remove from the heat and then mix in the remaining chocolate until melter. This will temper the chocolate which keeps it solid at room temperature.
Can you use regular flour? Or would that destroy the taste? I know regular flour isn’t on the paleo diet but I’ve run out of almond flour
Shopia, I think it should be fine if you use regular flour. If it looks dry add a bit more milk or oil. You might also need to adjust the sweetness.
I used VitaFiber instead Honey, they came out perfect!
these look great! How long can they be stored for??
Nina, these will last in the fridge for a while. You can also freeze then and then defrost them if you’d like.
I would like to make these, but I thought you should not eat raw flour. I heard coconut flour is okay to eat raw, but is almond flour?
Hi Ginger, almond flour is simply almonds ground up to fine powder. Its totally fine to eat it raw.
Okay, thank you. I’ll make these and let you know how it goes!
How many calories???
Hi Maya, I usually don’t calculate the nutrition facts of my recipes. Writing, testing, photographing and filming recipes takes a very long time and I ask that my readers help me and do this if possible. I hope you understand. You can calculate this using an online calculator like this one: http://recipes.sparkpeople.com/recipe-calculator.asp
I like all your recipes. could u please suggest me what kind of brand should i take raw honey,raw cacoa powder.
thank you
Thank you so much Sapu! For the honey I use this one http://amzn.to/2hfIy8Y
And for the raw cacao, this one here is my favorite http://amzn.to/2hfDj9p
This is such a great recipe, I couldn’t get enough of it! Really delicious and guilt-free.
I didn’t like the presentation so much, so I made it as dark chocolate covered pralines – just melted dark chocolate and covered the pralines tray with it, placed the cookie dough inside and let chill, then closed it up with more dark chocolate and voila!. Cookie dough pralines that were gone in an instant. Thanks so much for this recipe!
Hi Yaelle, they look absolutely amazing! I need to get a mold like yours! Thank you so much for sharing your photo here and for your feedback 🙂
So how many carbs in each cookie dough hole???
thanks
