Ingredients
  

Instructions
 

  • 1. In a large mixing bowl, beat together butter and sugars until no lumps remain, 1-2 minutes. Beat in eggs and vanilla extract, scraping the sides of the bowl to make sure all of the ingredients are incorporated. Add flour, baking soda, salt, and mix until smooth. Stir in mini chocolate chips. Cover and refrigerate dough for at least 1 hour or overnight.
  • 2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Roll chilled dough into smooth, tablespoon-size balls, about 1 inch in diameter. Flatten balls slightly into 3/4-inch disks. Place disks about 2 inches apart on parchment or Silpat lined baking sheets. Bake for 9-11 minutes, or until cookie edges are slightly golden brown. Let cookies cool on baking sheet for about 5 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and cool completely.
  • 3. To prepare the cookie dough filling, beat together butter and brown sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes. Mix in flour, powdered sugar, and salt on low speed until incorporated. Slowly add heavy cream and vanilla extract and beat until fluffy, about 2 minutes. Stir in mini chocolate chips.
  • 4. To assemble, sandwich 1 heaping tablespoon of filling between two cookies. Press cookies lightly until filling spreads to the edges. Repeat with remaining cookies.
  • Note: Sandwiches can be stored refrigerated in an airtight container, for up to 3 days. Let them sit at room temperature for 30 minutes before serving.

  1. Definitely cookie-dough! Whenever we bake cookies I eat more of the dough than the baked cookie.

  2. That’s a tough one. I’ve been a cookie dough lover since I was a child but I’m beginning to really love baked cookies just as much. What a quandry!

  3. Hands down, raw cookie dough. I have to stop myself from eating the whole bowl so there will be some left to bake!

  4. I guess it depends on where in the cooking making process you ask me. If you ask me during the dough stage, then I would say cookie dough. But right after a chocolate chip cookie has come out of the oven and they are all warm and gooey, well, then I would say the cookie. What came first, the chicken or the egg?

  5. While the buttery crunch of a baked cookie can’t be beat, I’d still choose the cookie dough! And all I can think looking at these cookies is that they’d be even better dipped 1/2 way into melted chocolate 🙂

  6. wow! these look amazing! i am a lover of both so these cookies look perfect for me. but if i had to choose i guess i’d have to pick baked chocolate chip cookies.

  7. I have to say that a warm, oozy, fresh baked cookie with a cold glass of milk can’t be beat! So, make mine baked, please!

  8. Well, I WANT to say dough, because it’s ready faster — but I also looooove baked cookies! (Ideally gooey…so it must be dough 🙂

  9. Baked cookies because there is no guilt or worry about eating raw eggs. With this recipe you get the best of both worlds since the filling has no eggs! 😀

  10. Is that question even possible to answer?! I’ll say baked cookies but must add that half the cookie dough is usually gone before they reach their finished state!

  11. I love cookies!! It always seems that I can eat more cookies than dough so that’s better in my mind. 🙂

  12. Baked – but there’s something naughty about eating the dough. When you can sneak it, you gotta just go for it! Yum!

  13. I like them both!! I think my favorite though is slightly underbaked cookies. That way you have the doughy centers, and the baked outsides. YUM!

  14. I LOVE raw cookie dough. I enjoy baking cookies because I can eat half the dough while the cookies bake.

  15. Cookie dough of course. Christmas of my 7th grade year I use to sneak down to the basement frige and snack on the choco chip cookie dough. Two fingers full per trip. Then I would wait until my mom was out of the house and I would have to make another batch. I had to replace the batch 4 times that Christmas. I was obsessed. But it was oh so yummy.

  16. Definitely COOKIE DOUGH 🙂 The best cookies are the ones that are still fabulously doughy, even after cooking!

  17. Cookie dough is my favorite! I’ll usually freeze some dough with the intention of baking it later but that never happens, I always end up eating it!

  18. Oh my gosh, this cookbook looks awesome! I am totally the dough queen around here, not just with cookies but I love eating any type of dough/batter — biscuits, pancakes, muffins, etc. Raw is usually better than baked.

    I actually have a small tupperware full of frozen cookie dough balls in my freezer right now that I stashed away the last time I made cookies. I have them hidden in back so my husband doesn’t find them!

  19. I think it depends on the recipe. I made some brown sugar cookies the other day and the dough was pretty rich, but I ate a ton of baked cookies… Then again when I make Toffee Chocolate Chip cookies I never seem to end up with the 4 dozen cookies it says it makes

  20. I loved baked cookies but in the right mood cookie dough is just what I need!
    Thanks for a great giveaway!

  21. Cookie dough hands down- because it’s wonderful, and when you’ve had enough it becomes a cookie!

  22. I like cookie dough better. Whenever I make cookies, I eat so much of the dough that I don’t even want cookies anymore by the time they’re baked!

  23. I’m a baked cookie lover. I’ve always been a little squeamish to eat more than just a lick of batter of anything with eggs in it. However, I am seeing a lot of eggless, meant to be eaten raw, dough recipes lately. I may have to experiment.

  24. Duh. Cookie dough are totally better! Cookie dough cookies, ice cream… You name it and I’ll love it!

  25. I love the cookie dough the best! I always have to sneak some when I bake cookies with my daughter:)

  26. I love cookie dough! I don’t bake because I will eat all the cookie dough before I can make the cookies.

  27. Cookie dough is a gift from the gods!! I always test out my dough before baking because if the dough is good the cookie will be great 🙂

  28. Which do I like better? Who says I have to choose?! 🙂 It’s like picking your favorite child!!!
    I guess if I HAD to choose, I’d say I like cookies better because nothing beats that warm, melted chocolate chip cookie right out of the oven 😀

  29. I love cookie dough ever since i was a little kid–being a rascal, i remember stealing the dough when one of my older sisters would put it on top of the fridge i some how got up there. Now as a mom of three my kids and husband go crazy over it as well, oh the little things in life that bring such joy :)!!

  30. It sort of depends for me…I definetely like chocolate chip cookie dough more than the cookies, unless its my go-to recipe. But, I’m not a fan of oatmeal cookie dough. In that case, cookies surpass dough.

  31. Definitely cookie dough – when I was a teen I would make batches of cookie dough when my parents were gone and just keep it in the fridge and munch away…….still love the dough and my kids do too!

  32. I love baked cookies the best….especially when they are right out of the oven with a cold glass of milk…mmmmmm good!

  33. I think it depends on which cookie I am making, usually I like the finished product better, but chocolate chip cookies are my exception – I prefer the dough!

  34. I do love cookie dough and usually end up eating my fair share ;), but you can’t beat the smell of warm cookies baking in the oven!

  35. Oh man that sounds delicious!!!

    I don’t think I can pick which is my favorite! It totally depends on my mood. Cookie dough is one of the most delicious things ever, but sometimes you need that fresh-from-the-oven gooey-ness of a cookie. If I could have a little melted chocolate in my cookie dough, I’d be in heaven!

  36. I’m definitely a baked cookie gal…but they have to be gooey, almost undercooked. 😀 These look fantastic!

  37. Both! How you can you not try the cookie dough when you’re making cookies?! And then how can you resist a hot cookie out of the oven. Both I say!!

  38. I love cookie dough 🙂 Yummy. I recently made cupcakes with a cookie dough filling and they were delicious!

  39. I like baked cookies the best! But I recently made chocolate chip cookie dough cupcakes and they were pretty amazing!!

  40. COOKIE DOUGH!!!! When I was younger, my brother and I would always sneak the dough from the fridge. My mother started counting how many dough squares (store-bought) were left so she could catch us!

  41. I’m a cookie dough fan. I usually eat some much dough while baking cookies that by the time they’re done, I’ve had my cookie fix!

  42. Its only 9 am and this is making my mouth water….love warm baked cookies but this is even better!

  43. Oh, I really must have a copy of this new book! I LOVE both the dough and undercooked cookies. I’m passionate about baking cookies and bake a batch almost every day.

  44. I totally go for cookie dough….unless the cookie is about 30 seconds out of the oven and not quite baked all the way through. YUM!

  45. Gotta have BAKED cookies. The way the house smells. Warm from the oven with a cold glass of milk. PARADISE!!!!

  46. Cookie dough!! We eat so much of it before it bakes that I’m never sure how many cookies my recipes are supposed to make!

  47. Cooikie dough for sure! There is a place not too far from my house that sells raw cookie dought by the scoopful – and it is my favorite decadent treat for sure. perhaps this is why I need to lose 20 lbs? ah – who cares – delicious!

  48. I love them both so much… who can really choose! But if I have to choose, probably cookie dough because who doesn’t like instant gratification!

  49. Frighteningly I used to eat the refridgerated cookie dough right outta the tube…in quantity. This looks like a healthy and safe alternative. Will make today – perfect for an after school snack with some sliced apples or strawberries.

  50. Which do I like better? Don’t make me choose! But under pressure, I think I’d pick cookies!

  51. well, stolen waters are always sweeter…I always feel guilty when I snitch raw batter…but in moderate amounts the cookie dough would have to be my pick

  52. I like baked cookies better. Especially when the center is gooey and the edges are crispy!

  53. That’s a tough one ! Before they are baked, the dough is the best. After they are baked I love them too ! I am so confused !!

  54. I actually am a bigger fan of the finished cookies than of the dough! But I always taste the dough before baking because if the cookie dough is good then the cookies will be good!

  55. Uhh… yes? I think it depends on the cookie recipe. Slightly underbaked cookies provide the best of both worlds!

  56. I’m with Josh, I’m all about the cookie dough! Though I wouldn’t turn down one of your homemade cookies either!

  57. Am I allowed to say both? I love both cookie dough and fresh baked still warm from the oven chocolate chip cookies.

  58. That is such a hard decision but I will have to go with cookie dough. Of course the cookies are delicious also but I would rather eat the dough, it is just that you usually aren’t suppose to eat the dough. This is a great recipe for both worlds.

  59. We are a split family. I love baked cookies and my husband loves the cookie dough. It always seems when I bake cookies that he eats more of the dough than I get cookies. 🙂

  60. ahh that’s a tough one! can i say i like them both equally?? i dont disriminate! haha chocolate chip cookies are my favorite cookie ever though! 🙂

  61. Cookie dough. Confession time…Sometimes I say I am going to make cookies but it is just a ploy for the dough.

  62. It’s so hard because I love them both in different ways buuut….I mean…c’mon. Cookie dough!!!

  63. Half the fun of making cookies is eating the dough. But for me it definitely depends on what type of cookie I’m making. I cannot resist sticking my fingers in chocolate chip, peanut butter, or monster cookie dough. 🙂

  64. I can’t decide! I like to sneak some dough while I am scooping it out onto the cookie sheet…but I love a warm, gooey chocolate chip cookie. I even love the ones with only one or two chips in them because the cookie part is so yummy. I used dark brown sugar instead of light for my last batch and OMG were they good!
    Anyway, my son loves everything cookie dough – ice cream, ice cream blizzards, cookies, cakes etc. He has requested a chocolate fudge cake/cookie dough, cheesecake combo for his birthday cake this year!!

    thanks for the recipe and LOVE the blog! 🙂

  65. It’s hard to choose, but probably warm cookies right out of the oven! Thanks for this chance to win!!

  66. I think I prefer my cookie dough uncooked… sandwiched between two baked cookies. Now that’s just a great idea.

  67. As a teen ager, I was crazy over uncooked choc chip cookie dough. I even babysat for a couple who always had a bowl of this in their frig for the husband to snack on…I cannot say “no” to soft, doughy cookies to this day.

  68. I like eating raw cookie dough as long as it does not have eggs. This recipe really does have the bedt of two worlds!! Must try!

  69. I go back and forth on that one! While I am eating each one, I am liking that one best! Same with cheesecake and cheesecake batter!

  70. I’m going to hedge and say that enjoying both is part of the same glorious process. If pressed, I guess I’ll go with baked cookies, because I like the golden brown edge & molten chocolate.

  71. Cookie dough for me! Although sandwiching it between to fresh cookies sounds like absolute perfection!

  72. Depends on the type of cookies! Usually I liked the baked version better 🙂

  73. Unfortunately, I like both. Can’t seem to keep my fingers/spoons out of the cookie dough, though. It just isn’t cookie baking if you don’t sample some of the dough! My youngest son is going to LOVE these cookies…he’s a real big chocolate chip cookie lover, and he REALLY loves cookie dough!!

  74. I love cookies more… I don’t like tasting the baking soda or powder in cookie dough. 🙂

  75. I enjoy eating dough while some of the cookies bake — baked cookies are probably better for me though because I can eat entirely way too much dough if I’m not careful 🙂

  76. I can’t help but eat cookie dough along the whole process of cookie making, but I still love the actual baked cookie the very very best!

  77. Definitely cookie dough! It’s a wonder any cookies actually get baked in my house before all the dough is gone. 🙂

  78. tough choice! i think i have to go with cookie dough, though! i can pass up cookies sometimes but a big bowl of dough is irresistible!

  79. I definitely love cookie dough more… I think that’s the main reason I make cookies lol. But a nice warm chewy cookie follows close behind… I will be making this recipe soon!!!!:)))

  80. These look amazing!! I LOVE cookie dough! I even like my cookies on the undercooked side so they are still rather dough-y! 🙂 This book looks like it was made for me!!

  81. Definitely cookie dough!! I used to buy the logs of Nestle’s cookie dough and just eat it raw..and it had eggs in it! Oh well, I think I turned out okay 🙂
    Can’t wait to try these cookies!

  82. Cookie dough!! But now that I have this recipe I have the best of both worlds together…can’t beat that 🙂

  83. Hi!
    I like baked cookies best but cookie dough rocks in a pinch! 🙂
    Thanks for the chance!
    ~Mippy 🙂

  84. Depends on the cookie…..I love chocolate chip cookie dough but usually not other types. I only really enjoy cookies when they are warm out of the oven. So, both? Haha.

  85. I have to say I am a big fan of cookie dough. I would say I like the dough better than ALMOST all cookies I would love to win this book!

  86. I have to say I like baked cookies better! I know, I know… blasphemy. 😉 But I just love how delicious they are right out of the oven! Mmmm.

  87. Warm cookies straight out of the oven while they are still gooey are the best…..with a glass of milk of course!

  88. I prefer baked cookies, but must always taste the dough before I bake them. Good cookies have good dough! 😉

  89. Hard Choice. I think I like cookies better, but I may need to do more “data collection” to decide for sure. :o)

  90. oh, my….what a choice….i think i will go with the cookie dough…is there anything better than delicious raisin oatmeal dough? hungry for it now!! hahah…

  91. It’s a toss up for me, I like both! That book would be awesome since I’m prego and can’t sample raw cookie dough right now.

  92. I really really love cookie dough in the summer, or anytime it’s just too warm out. But nothing beats cooked cookie down when it is chilly outside!!

  93. Definitely cookie dough! I usually eat so much of the dough that I don’t even want the cookies after I bake them! Well, maybe for a day or so, then I resume my cookie monster status.

  94. Personally, I like baked cookies better, but my 11 year old adores cookie dough and with this cookbook I know I could make him very happy. 🙂

  95. Definitely cookie dough!! I have eaten so much before the cookies are baked that my sweet tooth is over satisfied once the cookies are out of the oven!

  96. This is a tough question. I am going to have to say cookie dough, since I will often decide which cookie recipe to bake solely based on how good the dough will taste.

    Now I need a cookie…

  97. cookie dough for SURE! when i was little, my dad would buy us a tube of cookie dough from the store so we could go home and eat the entire thing in one sitting, just me and him!

  98. Cookie dough, no question! Baked cookies are good but they just don’t compare to a dollop of dough. 🙂

  99. Wow, these look amazing! I like cookie dough, but love cookies more…warm gooey goodness with a glass of milk. Yum! You can’t get that feeling from cold cookie dough.

  100. I am torn. I love eating cookie dough- my favorite dough is chocolate chip. But I don’t know if that beats out a warm cookie. I go crazy for a warm cookie!

  101. all i can say is i have eaten more cookie dough than i will ever admit to. what is it about cookie dough?

  102. I can’t choose! I have to hold myself back from eating too much of both:)) That’s why today’s recipe will be perfect for me!

  103. DEF BAKED. I am not a fan of cookie dough at all. MMMMMMMM ANY COOKIE BAKED. DROOL. I WANT RIGHT NOW!

  104. You can’t beat baked cookies that are warm from the oven. (That’s if they get into the oven since my husband eats most of the dough.)

  105. Oh geez…you just had to ask!!! I like, ummmm….the chocolate chip cookie dough better but only before the chips are added. 🙂

  106. Cookie dough for sure. Sometimes the cookies don’t even get baked because all the cookie dough gets eaten.

  107. I like the baked cookies right out of the oven best, but that doesn’t stop me from tasting the cookie dough too!

  108. I love the cookie dough, but it kills me to never bake the cookies. So I would guess the actual cookie is my fave:)

  109. Oh my gosh, what a hard question!! I absolutely LOVE both! But… I think I’ll have to lean a little more towards the cookie dough itself 🙂

  110. Warm, fresh cookies. I snag one off of every baking sheet that comes out of the oven when I bake. It’s not a healthy habit, but I don’t care! 🙂

  111. I would much rather eat the dough! Those tubs of dough that you’re supposed to bake into cookies – never make it to the oven at my house! I would love a copy of this cookbook!

  112. I’m not really a cookie fan (blasphemy, I know!). But I could eat cookie dough all day – and most of the night.

  113. I like baked cookies better but I do like stealing a few bites of the dough off the spoon before washing. 🙂 Book looks exciting!

  114. cookie dough – if it is chocolate chip or similar…if it is molasses (my other fav), definitely the cookie as I love the crunch after adding the sugar!

  115. Depends on the mood and the outside temperature. During the winter, it is hard to beat a fresh baked cookie with a mug of hot chocolate…with whipped cream!

  116. I love to eat the cookie dough the best! But warm cookies- slightly cooled, straight from the oven..are a close second! It’s all good! 🙂

  117. A few years back I probably would’ve said cookie dough, and not that I don’t love it now too, but I think overall nothing can beat a warm, straight-from-the-oven homemade cookie. That, you know, is soft enough to still taste something like the dough in the center anyway….

  118. I love cookie dough. Especially in baked cookies – I like the centers to be a little doughy! )

  119. I love cookie dough the best! But this sounds delicious : ) Cookie dough and the lovely meltiness of fresh cookies 🙂

  120. I LOVE nice chewy cookies! The dough’s great, but just not the same as a cookie with a big cup of hot coffee.

  121. Yumm yumm to cookie dough!!! It’s soft gooeyness is delightful. But the baked good is just as yummy right out the oven.

  122. I love them both but i think i would have to say i like cookie dough better than baked cookies 🙂

  123. I’m all about the cookie dough! I try bake more than I eat but that time between batches is TOUGH. 😉

  124. My family are chocolate chip cookie dough nuts!! This would be a perfect addition for our family tastebuds!

  125. I would much rather eat several spoonfuls of cookie dough than the baked cookies themselves! When I was little I would always make cookies with my friends during sleepovers and we would share bowls of dough before any baking happened!

  126. Mmm thanks for sharing this recipe!

    Cookie dough or baked? I don’t know! I love both…probably too much. If I had to pick I’d probably go with the baked – I can eat more that way 🙂

  127. I prefer them baked but dough is a close second place! Thanks for the giveaway chance! I adore your site!

  128. Personally I like cookies better but everyone else in my house seems to like the dough better…which is just as well as there are fewer cookies for me to eat!!

  129. that’s a hard decision… but I think I like baked cookies just a little more than cookie dough! especially if they’re warm!

  130. It would be almost impossible to choose between cookie dough and cookies, maybe a hot chocolate chip cookie thats still so soft in the middle its almost dough!

  131. I always end up eating more raw dough than actual cookies! It’s just too good!

  132. Cookie DOUGH is SO much better than baked cookies! Being able to shovel yumminess into your mouth with a spoon beats having to deal with crumbs all over the place… Plus, there’s no waiting for the cookies to bake and cool! Bonus!!

  133. Love cookie dough, but only in chocolate chip form. No other kind will do unless its a baked cookie!!!

  134. Dough all the way! It’s the only way to give your taste buds a preview of what’s to come! 😉

  135. I prefer cookies! I do like cookie dough but I usually prefer it in things like shakes or, in this case, in between cookies!

  136. Cookie dough, cookie dough, cookie dough… These look amazing. I’ll have to make them soon.

  137. I love both.. there’s nothing like warm baked cookies straight out of the oven.. I don’t like to cook them much so that they get kind of doughy… I adore sneaking for cookie dough.. hard to decide!!

  138. These definitely sound like the best of both worlds. I love cookie dough but I probably love a still-warm just-out-of-the-oven cookie just as much.

  139. Hmm… baked cookies are yummy but lets be serious here… when I am baking I definintely help myself to a heaping serving a raw cookie dough before they go in the oven. So, I would have to say cookie dough for sure 🙂

  140. I am definitely a cookie dough lover! I always reserve about a 1/4 of my cookie dough batter just for snacking on while I bake. 😉

  141. I would have to chose cookie dough!! No wait cookies AAAhhh to hard…..cookie dough yes I will stick with cookie dough

  142. Oh, that’s a tough question. But I’ll have to go with the dough. Now that I’m an “adult” and living in my own place, I ALWAYS have cookie dough in the fridge. And usually a spoon in my hand 🙂

  143. It’s so hard to choose which I like better, but cookie dough seems much more sinful. My all time favorite treat is two cookies, fresh out of the oven, with raw cookie dough in the middle. I can’t wait to try these!

  144. Cookie dough! My kids and I will sometimes make up a little bowl of it for dessert at night. I know, I know…I’m teaching them a bad habit…but…the cookie dough calls to me!!!!!!! lol

  145. Cookie Dough Cookie Dough Cookie Dough. Without a doubt! Can not wait to check out this book!

  146. OMG Cookie dough for sure! Wow, now I really want some Cookie dough ice cream!!! I also love that Cookie dough dip recipe you posted a few months ago it was perfect for pretzels. I love your blog
    swopemelmel @ aol dot com

  147. I love cookie dough, but I like baked cookies better since they don’t give me a stomach ache. If I could learn to make eggless dough, it’d be the best of both worlds!

  148. Definitely love the baked cookie the best. I’m a ‘dunk it in milk’ kind of cookie lover! The crunchier the better most of the time.

  149. Gosh, that’s a toughie…but I think I have to go with the baked cookies…fresh from the oven of course! 🙂

  150. I like cookie dough better! Though I have tried some eggless alternatives, I usually risk making regular cookie dough and then just dig in with a spoon. Come to think of it, I think I need to make some more today!

  151. I like my cookies baked–but my husband makes cookies just so he can eat the dough, so this book would be perfect for our house.

  152. Love, love, loooove cookie dough to cookies! Especially chocolate chip! I’ve also been known to whip up a box of brownies just so I could eat the batter! Deeelish!

  153. Mmmm, tough decision. I’m going with fresh baked cookies. I can’t wait to try this recipe!!

  154. Cookie dough all the way! I swear when I bake cookies, half of the dough ends up in my mouth instead of in the oven!

  155. COOKIE DOUGH RAW!!! I’ve always been told you’ll get sick by eating the cookie dough raw but so far I’ve been fine and I just love it!

  156. I think I may be one of the few who would prefer a baked cookie, however straight from the oven so it’s really melty (is that a word?) in the middle!!

    I’ve had my eye on this book, I hope I win!!

  157. If I really had to choose, I’d say my favorite would be baked cookies, hot out of the oven. With a ice cold glass of milk. 🙂

  158. I’m an underdone cookie fanatic – I mean, I eat it out of the bowl while making, but somewhere between completely raw and very clearly cooked is where I am happiest!

  159. I think I actually like cookie dough better! I always end up tasting enough of it that I don’t even want to eat a cookie after they’re done baking! 🙂

  160. You’ve hit me where it hurts! I love the cookie dough, but nothing is better than a warm chocolate chip cookie with a glass of cold milk.

  161. i would eat both! but i think i do like the baked cookie better!

    —-
    but a lovely post! 🙂 your cookies look gorgeous!

  162. I always, ALWAYS have a few bites of cookie dough …but at the end of the day, I like cooked cookies better!

  163. I love cookies and cookie dough!!! I have to practice serious self control when baking cookies to make sure cookies are actually made 🙂

  164. I like cookie dough better!!

    And these cookies look insanely good. I think I need to bake them for the office as soon as possible!

  165. I love cookies dough. Who can’t resist taking a few bites before baking. After all, by the time they’re done the kids eat them before you!

  166. Oh my, I haven’t thought to each the cookie dough. Since I was little it was always “No!” Im all for trying some cookie dough that we can eat!! Yeah, Im so excited with even just the thought of it; that trying the cookie dough will take me over the top good. Im looking forward to it! Thank you. Kimmer

  167. I like the cookie dough the best. I never thought about making it without eggs so you could eat it.

  168. Cookie dough, sometimes I make a batch and never bake a single cookie. I just keep the bowl in the fridge and eat the dough for days!

  169. Definitely cookie dough WAY more than cookies. I can’t help it. But cookies are good too 🙂

  170. These look amazing! I have to say as much as I like to get a little bite of cookie dough in, nothing beats a soft and warm baked cookie.

  171. LOVE me some raw cookie dough! Your photos are making me drool & now I’m totally craving cookie dough!!! 🙂

  172. I am pregnant with my 4th and this time around, cookie dough is the ONE thing I cannot get enough of. I can always be found with a bowl of cookie dough in the fridge to counter the cravings. But the cookie? Eh…not so much.

  173. I love baked cookies, but ones that aren’t fully cooked and still soft in the middle. It’s the best of both worlds!

  174. I love Cookie Dough! I could eat it all day long, and I especially crave it after a good workout 🙂

  175. The dough, that is why I under cook my cookies. I guess that is the best of both! A bit cookie and a bit doughy!

  176. I prefer cookie dough. When making cookies I will usually keep a small bowlful of dough to eat by the spoonful while my husband eats the cookies! 🙂

  177. Cookie dough is truly addictive. As much as I loved baked cookes, the dough does me in every time. I can’t wait for this book.

  178. I generally eat about ten cookies worth of dough while my husband hovers anxiously in the background dropping hints about there being enough left to actually make any cookies. I rarely eat them after they’re baked. They’re all for my husb.

  179. Wow…cookie dough stuffed cookies has got to be the coolest thing I’ve ever heard of…why in the world have I not tried this yet?? I gotta say, cookies FRESH out of the oven (burn-your-tongue hot) are my favorite, though this is a tough decision because cookie dough rules, too. 🙂

  180. I like baked cookies better (my husband actually makes them) but he also likes to eat cookie dough when he does so he would love these sandwiches!

  181. Cookie dough! Hot gooey cookies are a close second though, so it’s still worthwhile to cook a few 🙂

  182. The cookie dough for sure! Sometimes even before you add the dry ingrediants…Butter, sugar, vanilla = YUM!

  183. This is such a hard question!! Cookie dough, probably! My roommates back from my college days will verify how much I ate, just sitting on the couch, with a spoon. YES, embarrassing.

  184. I would choose either, depending on my mood! There’s a time and place for both as someone else stated 🙂

  185. I love cookie dough so much more than baked cookies! Unless the cookies are hot and barely baked and still taste like cookie dough.

  186. COOKIE DOUGH WINS! My kids wonder who ate all the cookies????? All of the uncooked dough doesn’t make it to the sheet. ooooohhhhhh, yum.

  187. Cookie dough! I make cookies because I am craving the dough – and only cook them so I don’t eat all of the dough! I know – it’s bad!

  188. These look fabulous!! I love soft baked cookies better than cookie dough, especially warm right out of the oven 🙂

  189. I love them in the middle, somewhere in between raw and cooked. My husband calls them medium rare! These look perfect for me!

  190. I prefer baked cookies, all warm and chewy straight from the cooling racks~

    I never have eaten raw cookie dough because I’m afraid of salmonella D:

  191. I am a cookie dough girl all the way. The only way I can avoid eating absolutely all the cookie dough is by baking it into cookies…then I only eat 2/3 of the cookies. 🙂

  192. Cookie dough, no contest.

    I love cookies, I really do, but the cookie dough is always at least 20% tastier.

  193. Cookie dough for me. Sometimes I eat so much of it that I don’t even want the cookies when they are all done (well, maybe just a little taste).

  194. It’s a tie – I really can’t ever decide which one I like the best. While I’m making the cookies, it’s the dough. When they’re done baking, it’s the cookies!

  195. I love, love, love, love, LOVE raw cookie dough! When Lindsay announced on her blog that she had written this cookbook, I was over the moon excited (and still am!). I can hardly believe the release date is finally (almost) here!! Would love to win an extra copy (I obviously have one pre-ordered too though :)!

  196. That is such a tough question!! I guess I like baked cookies the most.. but cookie dough is a very close second! 🙂

  197. Cookie dough all the way! Chocolate chip is my husband’s favorite. I made cookie bars last year for his birthday, and will make these this weekend for his birthday! They look amazing!

  198. It’s a tough choice! I love cookie dough, but eventually grow tired of it and want the baked cookies (if I’ve left enough dough for baking). My preference also changes with the type of cookie. I love sugar cookie dough but can (usually) leave (most of) the cookies alone. Any chocolate or chocolate chip dough is a huge temptation, but then so are the cookies. Must I really choose just one?

  199. Mmmmm….both are delightful, but there’s nothing like a good soft cookie…almost like dough!!

  200. Looks delicious! I love love love baked cookies 🙂 but I also love love love cookie dough.

  201. It depends on the type of cookie for me. With chocolate chip and peanut butter cookies, I’d say the dough would win (just slightly) over the baked cookies. With other varieties, like sugar cookies, gingersnaps, and others, I prefer the baked version. I can’t wait to try this recipe!

  202. I love the cookie dough, I just can’t help myself. Yummy 🙂 these cookies look fantastic, I can’t wait to try them.

  203. I love baked chocolate chip cookies, cooled a tiny bit, & eat like that or make a chocolate chip vanilla ice cream sandwich. Yum!

  204. Baked cookies over the raw dough – baked you can save a few for later, but the dough you tend to eat the whole thing 🙂

  205. We love cookie dough at our house. We usually make it and freeze it and then eat it as a treat or half-bake it with ice cream. Yum!

  206. I am obsessed with cookie dough! I am so excited about this book! Thanks for the chance to win!

  207. Baked cookies! Knowing there is raw eggs in the batter just freaks me out, even though I am perfectly healthy enough to eat it. Her cookbook looks great!!

  208. I have to say that I prefer the dough over the baked cookie. Can’t help myself. These sandwiches are definitely the best of both worlds!

  209. Great looking cookie! I definitely love the dough (or the batter) way more than the final baked goodie!

  210. I believe I like mine baked better… but eating bits of dough while making them is part of the fun!

  211. Oh my gosh. What a tough question…but nothing beats fresh baked cookies right out of the oven. so soft and gooey. 😛

  212. It should be illegal to make someone choose which they like better! 😉 But if I had to choose I think I would have to say cookie dough, especially if it’s chocolate chip cookie dough!!!

  213. I’ve been drooling at this cook book for SO long! Always love it. So addicting. The cookie dough is always the best, but that might be the adrennaline rush from doing something “bad”.. haha(:

  214. I. Love. Cookie. Dough.
    And I don’t always eat the egg-free version. Oh my. Just the right amount of sweet …. and salty …. and chocolate. It’s so good!

  215. I am a baked cookie person. Nice to know that this cookbook’s cookie dough is eggless; now I can let my grandkids eat this raw cookie dough 🙂

  216. These cookies sandwiches look fabulous and I am dying to get my hands on this book! I eat baked cookies much more than dough! My husband usually can’t keep his hands out of the dough though!

  217. this is how i eat my cookies when i make them! i bake a batch and while the next batch is baking i dig into the warm cookies and put the dough in the middle! YUMMY!!!

  218. Oh man, that’s a tough one – I love both! However, there was a time when I ate so much cookie dough, I literally turned green – GREEN! So, I’ve scaled back on eating straight cookie dough these days, but I do love it in my Ben and Jerry’s cookie dough ice cream 🙂

  219. I like slightly under-baked cookies, so that I get the best of both worlds, dough-y center and crispy edges!

  220. Cookie dough is the best! It makes me feel rebellious when I eat it… And it’s oh so yummy 🙂

  221. My only curiosity about this cookie was “Would they put raw egg in the dough?” Of course they didn’t. But it needs walnuts to provide contrast to all of the sugar.

  222. I LOVE cookie dough. I bake cookies every Sunday to bring to work for the week and I always sample the cookie dough prior to baking. It’s my way of checking to make sure they’ll turn out okay. I don’t bother with the finished product – I let my husband sample those. 🙂

  223. Definitely raw cookie dough. Nothing beats licking the bowl AND the spoon clean… and sneaking some scoops in between… 🙂

  224. Secretly I just love choc chip cookie dough. I use my own hens eggs, that way I don’t worry so much about the raw egg stuff.

  225. This is a very tough question! But I think I like cookies baked better, right out of the oven!

  226. Hands down – cookie dough! There’s something about the raw dough when you’re baking and who can’t resist picking out all of the cookie dough bits in ice cream:)

  227. I LOVE both but the dough is hands down my favorite AND my new obsession. If i could justify keeping some in a container int he fridge to snack on daily I would. LOL 🙂

  228. I’m a cookie dough fiend myself and I’m reviewing this cookbook either this Friday or next! LOVE IT. I haven’t made these cookie sandwiches yet but you can bet I’m going to!

  229. Why should one choose? This is the beauty of making cookies from scratch. You get to have your cookie and eat it too. Ever since I learned how to bake I have loved getting to snack on the the dough as I bake off my cookies and then getting my fresh, warm gooey cookies after baking. These of course require a glass of milk, as anyone who has read If You Give a Mouse A cookie is aware.

  230. I love what you picked to make! I don’t need to be entered in the giveaway, I just had to comment on your cookies! I haven’t picked what to make out of this book yet, there are just too many amazing choices! But this was right up there towards the top – cookies and cookie dough together? It is like the best of both worlds.

  231. This is a toughie, but I have to go with the baked chocolate chip cookies. I need to have them straight outta the oven, warm and melty!

  232. YUM!!! I have definitely pinned this! It would be super-exciting to win the cookie dough lover’s cookbook! Fingers crossed!

  233. Cookie dough! And I have learned that not all cookie dough is created equal. Just because I like the cookie doesn’t guarantee I’ll like the dough, and vice versa. Thanks for the giveaway. Either way I’m getting’ that book. It looks awesome!

  234. Of course the cookie dough is better! But I’m still a sucker for a good cookie with a crispy outside and chewy inside.

  235. Tough decision – made a whole lot easier – had a batch of choc chip cookies that were a but over baked for my taste – crumbled them up (not too fine) and added them to the next batch of dough – cookies were great but the dough was even better.

  236. I really love both! I guess if I HAD to choose, I’d pick baked cookies, fresh out of the oven, with a blob of vanilla ice-cream on top. Love the hot/cold combination.

  237. I love cookie dough, but my husband freaks out about salmonella any time he sees me eating it.

  238. OMG this is such a hard questions to answer. Dough or Cookie. Cookie or Dough. Oh gosh…I’m going to say…Cookie! Sugar cookies are way better than just the dough – chocolate can go either way.

  239. I loooooove raw cookie dough!! I’m allergic to eggs so I use an egg substitute (Ener-G) so I don’t even feel guilty sampling my raw dough ;).

  240. I prefer cookies, but there’s something special about stealing a spoonful of the dough;)

  241. Some times its all about the dough and other times its all about the cookie. So when you make them at home you can have the best of both worlds and have some of both. YUMMY

  242. Awesome. Thanks for sharing. I found this on Pinterest.com So happy I did. I’m a baker and even though I’m a Junior in High School, I’m already making a business out of it 🙂 I don’t know if that URL to my facebook will let you see the pictures… But those are my amateur cakes 🙂 It’s fun to bake and create new recipes and this one, if I do say so myself… Is awesome!!!

  243. I love the dough but I am afraid to get sick with salmonella! So I would have to say I prefer baked

  244. Oh, definitely the dough. Baking in my retreat, whereas what I bake ends up being treat for others. During the cookie-making process, many “quality control” checks mush be done…. So usually, by the time the cookies are actually done baking, I’ve had my fix already. Besides, the calories aren’t added until the cookies are in the oven — right?????

  245. OMG!! I am the baker in my house too!
    I love making cookies especially, but my family eats more cookie dough than baked cookies! These look awesome! I can’t wait to make them this week!
    Thanks Maria!

  246. Cookie dough all the way!!

    Although a super yummy just-out-of-the-oven cookie is to die for as well…

  247. If it is chocolate chip cookies I definitely prefer cookie dough. But they are still delicious as cookies.

  248. I LOVE cookie dough! I usually sample so much cookie dough when I’m baking that I can’t even stomach a baked cookie. I’d love this cookbook to try the eggless recipe’s. What a genius book!

  249. Cookie dough for sure!! That is always the food I miss the most when I am pregnant! I would love some eggless cookie dough recipes (and my pregnant sis would too).

  250. The dough, the dough, the dough! I don’t care if there ARE raw eggs in it. Surely as much as we have all eaten since we were kids, we would surely be dead by now if it were THAT harmful, don’t ya think? 🙂

  251. I love eating cookie dough! So much better than baked cookies, but I eat more baked cookies than raw dough because of the eggs, so I am so happy to see some eggless recipes!

  252. Cookie dough, hands down. I even prefer my cookies to more on the “dough” end of the spectrum than “cookie”!

  253. Wow this cookbook looks dangerous! Definitely dough- especially with some oats in there.

  254. Cookie dough! I can walk right by cookies all the time but I’ll never let a smidge of dough sneak by.

  255. It is a toss up for me. I really enjoy hot cookies straight out of the oven, but then a big blob of cookie dough right out of the freezer is pretty awesome too. The cookbook looks very interesting.

  256. My husband loves cookie dough, but I think nothing beats fresh warm cookies just out of the oven. mmmmm.. I’d still love to try the recipe book though!

  257. I’m not sure if a previous attempt at commenting went through or not.. darn work filters!

    I love dough when I make it, especially chocolate chip!

  258. I love cookies that have been baked to the point where the outside is crisp and the inside is just a bit chewy giving it the hint of the cookie dough state.

  259. Thats a tough decision but youre guaranteed that Cookie dough will always taste delicious. The cookies may not always come out just right or you may accidentally overbook them. So I say cookie dough.( Sometimes i purposely undercook the cookies so they will be gooey, almost like cookie dough ;-). )

  260. Ok, so I like the best of both worlds…Cookie dough is amazing and so are freshly baked, warm cookies — my solution? Bake cookies for a shorter period of time =) edges slightly chewy and the rest is still perfect cookie dough consistency! Warm and cozy comfort food =D

  261. When my boys would ask if they could have the beater, I would say no because it has raw eggs in it and I didn’t want them to get sick…. but really, it was because I wanted to eat them myself!

  262. I love cookie dough! I could eat half of it before I even get to baking the cookies! I always have to use more self control than I really want to. Cookie dough is my most favorite food in the world! 🙂

  263. I think it might be a tie for me. I love cookie dough and I love a cookie right out of the oven. Your recipe makes is possible to have both…YAY!

  264. I definitely LOVE the cookie dough more, but I wouldn’t turn down a cookie! And I definitely will be making these this weekend. Thank you for sharing!

  265. Cookie dough, definitely! I usually replace eggs with applesauce or flax “eggs” in recipes so that I have no qualms about eating the dough 🙂

  266. It’s a tough call but I definitely love cookie dough a little more! Can’t wait to try the recipe!!

  267. Wow, what a hard choice! But in the end I would have to pick a perfectly baked chocolate chip cookie as they are my favorite!

  268. I like chocolate chip cookies…in any form. Raw dough, warm gooey goodness, off a spoon, out of a bakery bag, as an after dinner treat, and a morning wake up with tea. You can’t go wrong.

  269. I like cookie dough the best! It could be the fact that it was so frowned upon to eat raw cookie dough as a child (even though I ALWAYS snuck a nibble or two!). It’s truly irresistible 0:-)

    Thanks for the giveaway! Ranelle24877[at]hotmail[dot]com

  270. I love both but I guess I’ll go with baked cookies, still warm and gooey from the oven!

  271. I love that I can have both with this recipe! If I had to pick, I’d go for baked cookies warm from the oven!!!

  272. I love a nibble of the cookie dough but prefer to eat the majority baked. These sandwich cookies look delish.

  273. difficult choice, but love the texture of the baked cookies and the saltiness that comes out when cookies are baked. The yen and yang not as distinct in the cookie dough…

  274. I’d have to say I love cookie dough more! I make cookies sometimes to just have a taste of the dough, lol. I’m soo excited to try this recipe. 🙂

  275. It’s a toss up – if the cookies are soft, gooey and chewy then I like those! Otherwise dough is the best!

  276. I never got into raw cookie dough (hot cookies are my downfall!) but my husband could eat it all! I just don’t get it……

  277. Cookie dough vs. baked cookies?? That is one of the hardest “would you rather” questions, in my opinion. I always eat both, but I guess I’ll go with the baked cookie because I usually only eat a few cookies worth of dough whereas I can scarf many, many baked cookies. The final product wins.

  278. I definitely can’t decide. Cookie dough is so creamy, but cookies are so chewy. If I had to choose, I’d say dough. In fact, I am making cookie dough brownies tonight. Can’t wait.

  279. Considering the first thought I had was that I could just make the eggless dough portion to snack on any time…..cookie dough

  280. I LOVE me some cookie dough! Don’t get me wrong, I love baked cookies too, but the dough, is…..divine!

  281. Cookie Dough all the way! Something about the creamy/ forbidden fruit aura around it makes it irresistible! Guess I like living on the edge – salmonella – pfft -Worth it! 😀

  282. Definitely cookie dough! Sonic has a new batter batter blast that has cookie dough and brownie batter! Can you say YUM!!!

  283. I do adore chocolate chip cookie dough…. but not nearly as much as a warm, gooey, baked chocolate chip cookie.

  284. While I love cookie dough, there’s something about the melted chocolate in chocolate chip cookies & eating them warm and gooey… I’d have to say cookies!

  285. Ilove both, but I guess I prefer baked. Though these are really the best of both worlds!

  286. I am firmly on the cookie side, but had 4 kids who loved both. It was always a race to get it into the oven before they ate them. I actually started making them while they were in school. They were so disappointed that I started saving some for them. If I was lucky enough to win I would give the book to my daughter who loves making cookies & eating cookie dough. Thanks for the chance.

  287. Oh my…ALWAYS the raw cookie dough! I eveb risk the salmonella…do not tell anyone, okay?? This cookie-book is right up my ally!

  288. Lindsay’s book has been sitting on my desk tempting me now for awhile. I can’t wait to use it!

  289. LOVE cookie dough! I have memories of growing up during the summer, of my sisters and I munching on the cookie dough so much that there was not enough to make a batch of cookies!

  290. I like cookies, but usually don’t eat to many of them because I have eaten enough of the dough. I love all parts of cookie dough….I have to sample the butter and sugar, then after the eggs, vanilla, etc is added I usually taste it. Then after the flour has been added and again after the oatmeal, chips, etc., etc. Usually, I need a little taste with each cookie sheet that is fill. Looks like a great cookbook. Love your blog.

  291. I like not-quite-baked cookies – you get the best of both worlds – doughy and warm goodness!

  292. Mm, hard question! I love cookie dough though.. I like it because it’s so rich and sweet, especially when the cookies haven’t been cooked all the way through and you can still taste the doughy-ness. It’s super yummy.. melt in your mouth. Just love the dough, obviously.. hehe. I love cookies too, don’t get me wrong.. but it’s just the sinful spoonful or two.. or five.. or.. more.. of cookie dough that just makes you wanna smile. 🙂

  293. Cookie dough for sure, there are times that I make a batch of cookie dough and between me and my two kids we don’t even get to baking cookies 🙂 Can’t wait to try these!!

  294. My five year old daughter is like Josh! Loves to eat the cookie dough while I am making them. As she would say she is a “sneaky ninja!” I love the cooked cookies while they are fresh out of the oven! 🙂

  295. As much as I love cookie dough, I definitely have a soft spot for cookies right out of the oven 🙂

  296. Definitely have to go with COOKIE DOUGH! That said, I find dough much easier to eat to excess as spoonfuls don’t make a full cookie until after 5 or 6 heaping tablespoons, right?

  297. OMG i absolutely love cookies! They are my favorite thing to eat ever!! Soft gooey chewy cookies only! Cookie dough is another story omy so rich creamy and yummmyy its absurd. If i could seriously go to your kitchen and eat cookie dough sandwhiches that would make my year. The cookbook will be fine tho lol. i recently competed in a fitness competition and fish and asparagus for the past three months, no cheating. Now omgggg i am going insane, i want the best cookie dough dessert on this planet earth and it looks like i found it! thank you for sharing this blog, post, cookbook. i am deprived lol

  298. Something about eating dough appeals to my rebellious side. Oh yeah, I’m such a rule breaker. Ha! 😉

  299. I like the cookie better only because I know there are raw eggs in the batter! This is perfect!! No eggs!

  300. Yum – these look great! Can’t wait to try this recipe and take a look at this book!

  301. I love them both-but have to lean for a great warm cookie not quite cooked all the way through.

  302. Do I have to choose? Probably warm freshly baked cookies since there are more recipes I like baked rather than raw…buuut I absolutely love chocolate chip cookie dough!

  303. Oh.my.goodness. I am a total sucker for cookie dough. I think I could live off of it if my waste line and health wouldn’t be affected. This cookbook would be awesome!

  304. Cookie dough. Hands down. Sometimes, it takes a lot of self control to carry on with the baking rather than sitting with a spoon and chowing down on dough! This book looks phenomenal!

  305. Honestly, it’s a draw for me. Nothing beats cookie dough – until the cookies come out of the oven …..

  306. That is definitely a hard choice, but I’ll have to go with baked cookies! My grandma makes THE best chocolate chip cookies….mmmm.

  307. I’d say cookie dough all the way! In fact, my VERY FIRST COMPLETE SENTENCE EVER IN MY LIFE was, “I like good food like dough”… That opinion of mine still hasn’t changed 20 some years later!!! 🙂

  308. Definitely cookie dough! My best friend, Sally & I have cookie dough dates, a tradition we started in college…..eating cookie dough & discussing boys in our dorm rooms. Now, we just discuss life: my husband & baby, her job & man troubles via phone. Keeps us connected & is super yummy!

  309. Freshly baked cookies beat out cookie dough any day! Also med school has tarnished dough for me; eggs or no eggs, it’s the raw flour that’s most at risk of harbouring bacteria.

  310. OMG! Is this a trick question? I’m so glad I happened upon this recipe that offers the best of both worlds so I’m not having to make a rash decision as to which tops the other! I guess a deciding factor for me would have to be the “chip.” I can eat more raw cookie dough if chip digestion is kept to a minimum, however once that chip has been melted into the sheer bliss of a warm cookie, the cookie digestion increases exponentially. Well it’s a toss up! For the purpose of arguments sake…I’m going to lean more towards the cookie dough. Yummm!

  311. Oh my gosh! That might be the best cookbook ever!! I love my cookies soft and slightly undercooked…right out of the oven!

  312. Both… My sister and I used to bake cookies and things together, and smack the hand of whichever of us wasn’t making the dough, while allowing the fingers to grab.. We’ve taught our kids the same way.. Time to teach the grands! With baked cookies, my big fave is sandwiches, but it HAS to be homemade ice cream, nothing else qualifies! Kisses to little Mr. Handsome!

  313. I love both, but cookie dough is my favorite! A warm cookie fresh from the oven can definitely give the dough some competition though…. 🙂

  314. ok, so although I bake a lot of cookies, I don’t enjoy them but cookied dough on the other hand….I truly enjoy. I must confess I’ve even made a single serving at work. yes, I brought the ingredients into work and in a few minutes whipped up scoop of cookie dough to get my fix.

  315. I love cookie dough!! But sometimes I like baked cookies. I guess it depends on what I’m looking for in that moment.

  316. There is absolutely nothing better then a warm chocolate chip cookie straight out of the oven, ahhh that melted chocolate!

  317. While I am attempted to say I like baked cookies better, the amount of raw dough I eat while baking really tells the truth.

  318. It depends on the kind of cookies I’m making, but I usually love to eat the dough- you know, just to “test” it :). I’ll definitely be trying this recipe at my house!

  319. I’d usually tend to vote for baked cookies, but primarily because of food safety issues with cookie dough. Since this book gets around those issues, it’d be an even tougher call. I think I need to try out this cookie dough recipe. For purely research-related purposes, of course. 😉

  320. If it is chocolate chip cookie dough, I would have to say the sough. All others, I can wait until they are done.

  321. My birthday cake one year was a request for simply cookie dough – YUM! I get cookie dough ice cream mainly for the dough 😉 Thanks for the opportunity and letting us know about the cookbook.

  322. I LOVE COOKIE DOUGH, BROWNIE BATTER, AND CAKE BATTER!! I love to bake and pride myself on my skills, but I don’t bake for me, I bake for others. If it were up to me I’d just make the dough/batter and eat that, but the finished product is what everyone else loves…weirdos 😉

  323. Raw cookie dough, for sure! In college, my girlfriends and I would get together once a week. We would cook dinner together, sit around talking, drinking wine. Someone always brought cookie dough to bake up for dessert, but week after week the dough never made it to the oven- we broke it open and ate it with our fingers, spoons, whatever worked. Wine and cookie dough became a tradition in our circle and at my wedding 3 summers ago, my girlfriends surprised me with cookie dough for us to eat at the reception. Another one of us will get married this summer and I plan to bring along cookie dough for us to dine on! What could be better than cookie dough in a wedding dress?!

  324. Maria, the grown up in me says “but of COURSE I cook each and every one to beautiful perfection.” The truthful NOT SO grown up part of me says “I’m lucky if 3 actually make it to the oven!” Besides, don’t cookie dough balls have fewer calories than the cooked ones??? ;D

  325. I am torn between the two. When making cookies I eat a fair amount of the dough and eat the majority of the baked cookies… But I think I would have to go with the dough being the absolute best part. Nothing tastes quite like it.

  326. I suppose for me it’s somewhere in between. Sometimes I way love the dough better, but if the dough yields a soft, melt in your mouth baked cookie….I am all over that!

  327. I’m more of a cookie dough gal, but I love a good baked cookie as long as it is still soft and gooey so it retains some of that “dough”ness. 🙂

  328. Freshly made cookie dough is my favorite, but cookies still warm from the oven with a glass of cold milk are pretty awesome, too.

  329. It’s a big toss-up… I probably prefer baked. I usually bake mine a little less, though, so the middles are chewy. I love soft cookies!

  330. Sorta both! I like them when they’re warm out of the oven and not quite completely baked. Yummm!

  331. Oh most definitely cookie dough! just brings back warm gooey memories of stealing finger full of dough when mom was not looking! oh the sinful Delicious-ness! 🙂

  332. I have always loved my cookie dough raw. I mean, don’t get me wrong…who doesn’t love a fresh baked cookie with a tall, cold, glass of milk… but something comical happens with eating the dough raw. I’m pretty sure for me it reminds me of being a kid and my mom yelling at me to not eat it raw as a slipper comes flying at my head. I duck just in time around a corner, full spoon of dough in hand, running for my life as the “blue boomerang” misses my head by mili-seconds. Now, being all grown up (well, not much taller I admit) I still eat it uncooked with a spoon, leaning against my own kitchen counter and smirk to myself…cause I CAN eat it my way now… all with the familiar “woosh” sound echoing through a long lost (sometimes painful when connection was made) memory. BTW, Mom still yells at me for it. Thankfully, she has lost some of the sharp shooter skills in her right arm….

  333. I love Baked Cookies but enjoy snacking on the cookie dough while waiting for the cookies baking in the oven.

  334. I prefer just baked and out of the oven choc chip cookies. Yum… makes me want to bake some 🙂

  335. I like baked cookies, but a lot of the time I am too impatient to wait for the finished product!

  336. Cookie Dough is the answer! In college I used to buy a tub of it premade at the store when I didn’t have anything to do or had a rought time studying (probably the cause of my freshman 15)

  337. I’m a lover of both cookies and cookie dough. I love the dough but can only eat so much at one sitting before it’s time to move on to a nice warm fresh cookie! Unless you give me oatmeal cookie dough, then maybe I’m more of a cookie dough fan!!

  338. I’m not one to turn down either, but if I had to choose only one it’d be cookie dough. Can’t wait to make these, the best of both worlds!

  339. I like the unbaked cookie dough better! Even brownie and cake batter is better for it is cooked!

  340. I personally like baked cookies better. Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE cookie dough, but something about that warm chocolate chip cookie, with the crisp edges and soft middle, ughh, nothing beats it.

  341. I like the chocolate chip cookie dough better. It is a bit of rebelliousness factor mixed with the taste pleasure. The dough is sweeter and the sticky texture is such a pleasure. Mixing the 2 would be a great idea. I just may have to make ice cream with cookie pieces and dough together now. Oooooh!

  342. Raw Cookie Dough right after you’ve put the rest of it in the oven to be baked 🙂

  343. I LOVE raw cookie dough and in over 40 years of eating the stuff, have Never Gotten Sick from the eggs…but, as they say, Kids, DONT TRY THIS AT HOME!

  344. I love cookies dough some days i could just make cookie dough and eat the whole batch raw…num num.

  345. Isn’t baking cookies the excuse to eat cookie dough? Definitely am a big fan of cookie dough 🙂 More than cookies :-))
    Book looks amazing! Thanks for featuring a recipe!

  346. Wow that is a good question. I always heard that cookie dough was bad for you which was a great tragedy! I compromised, a very diplomatic thing to do, and decided to like really soft, gooey, chewy, fall apart in your hands, still warm cookies 😀

  347. Yummy! These look awesome. And cookie dough wins this round, but don’t underestimate my serious love affair for freshly baked, warm, slightly crispy, slightly chewy cookies, either. Cookie dough only wins by a margin 🙂

  348. Cookie Dough! My mom’s chocolate chip cookies had no eggs so that was a plus growing up. I’m not going to lie though – I would even dip a finger in for the creamed sugar and butter.

  349. I absolutely LOVE cookie dough! No baked cookie can amount up to how delicious and satisfying chocolate chip cookie dough tastes. I can never just take “one” spoonful (as I tell my son to do) or only lick the beater at the end- I find many excuses to do (large) taste tests through out the mixing process 🙂

  350. I love both! I have been making cookie dough since I was 4 or 5 and received an Easy Bake Oven. It was a challenge to make sure there was some of the dough left to actually ‘bake’ 🙂 Cookie dough is my favorite while I am making the cookies – – then the baked cookies become my favorite after they are cooked!

  351. I love cookie dough, i love it so much more than cookies! I usually get too full eating cookie dough while im making cookies to actually eat the baked cookies.

  352. I love baked cookies better! I love scooping them off the hot pan as soon as they come out of the oven! YUM!

  353. While watching foodnetwork one day, I heard Chef Geoffrey Zakarian say ‘If it’s good raw then it will be good baked.’ I love it!! I almost always would rather eat a spoon full of dough! But a fresh baked cookie is in a close second place. 🙂

  354. That’s kind of a ridiculous question because EVERYONE knows that raw is the beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesssssttt!! Thanks for the giveaway!

  355. I like the cookies, but when the cookie is just barely baked so it’s a little bit cookie, a little bit dough. YUM!

  356. No contest – cookie dough! When I was little, my mom (don’t hate – we licked all the batter and dough and didn’t get the zombie plague) always let me take a little spoon full of the Pillsbury cookie dough whenever we had it in the house. I rarely remember cookies actually being made with it. I think it was just for the occasional cookie dough hit.
    These cookie dough sandwiches look fun. Id be a kid all over again.

  357. Dough definantly! Remembering my mom saying, “Your going to get worms if you keep eating it raw!” and I would just shrug my shoulders and think – well, it’s worth it! LOL

  358. My favorite is definitely the cookies. I do like the gooey ones though. The real reason I clicked on the link is… for my 17yr old niece who could live on cookie dough. She started baking a couple years ago after high school cooking class. She loves it. She was just eating cookie dough last night!!! 🙂

  359. I work in food safety…no raw dough for me. (Unless you use pasteurized eggs.) Baked all the way! Warm with a glass of milk. Makes my mouth water even as we speak. These look sooo good!!

  360. Hi, I was raised with my nena who was sure to let me help her with baking cookies by licking the spoon! oh and when at all possible my fingers were in the dough scooping up cookie size “tastes” of the Delicious cookie dough!! so. yes,,by far cookie dough rules. ~Rita
    PS. my own kids grow up with the same traditions. its a family thing. Nena always said’ “A good baker knows that the dough is good”, the cookies are going to be Amazing.

  361. Cookie Dough without a doubt! But my husband prefers the cookies- I guess that makes us a good match!

  362. cookies! You can take them with you much easier than cookie dough, so the fun and deliciousness never has to stop 🙂

  363. I do like both equally… but I surely won’t say to no to good old fashion cookie dough ice cream : )

  364. I used to prefer the cookie dough, but I currently prefer baked cookies since they last a little longer!

  365. Cookie dough is awesome but so are freshly baked cookies. Defiantly a toss up, probably depends on my mood! These look so delicious!

  366. I cannot wait to try these! I usually but cookie dough and never make the cookies! Cookie dough is definitely better!

  367. Wow….. Tough decision between cookie dough
    & the finished product….. But I am going
    to go with my fave being the cookies ! 😉

  368. Cookie dough for sure. My roommate limits the amount we can eat, so we don’t get sick of salmonella. We just tried these cookies and they are so good! Pretzels taste really good dipped into the middle layer!

  369. Baked is better because their is nothing like the smell of baking goodies in a house. Raw cookie dough can’t match that!

  370. I prefer the baked cookie especially when still warm and gooey from the oven. However, my two children prefer cookie dough. I make cookie dough truffles that do not contain raw eggs that they just adore. I can’t wait to try this recipe out on them. It does seem to be the best of both worlds.

  371. Absolutely LOVE cookie dough better then baked cookies—probably why I have to make a large batch so by the time I bake them I actually still have a dozen cookies that come out of the oven!!!

  372. Cookie dough is delicious..but then you take that deliciousness and put it in the oven and BAM something else delicious comes out!

  373. I would have to say both!! They are like two different desserts!! Love cookie dough in icecream!! But fresh warm cookies are great too…..and of course good in icecream!! What a fun cookbook!! Thanks for such great recipes! I will be trying this one soon!

  374. I should not be looking at these right now. They are making my stomach growl. Delicious!!! Perfect combination of delicious and delicious!

  375. i prefer raw cookie dough over baked cookies. i love the flavor!

  376. I live at high altitude (4955 ft), and I made these cookies–didn’t even get to the filling part (which was the initial reason why I wanted to make this), and these cookies are PERFECT for high altitude! This is the FIRST time I have made chocolate chip cookies from scratch that did not turn into runny melted puddle-things! Thank you!

  377. I prefer baked and my husband loves the dough… So cookies are always a win-win in my house. Love the site!!! Keep it up!!!

  378. I LOVE then before they are baked. I used to always get in trouble as a kid for eating my Mom’s sugar cookie dough when she left it in the fridge overnight!

  379. These cookie dough sandwiches were delicious! I made them about a week and a half ago and have been thinking about them ever since! My husband and I refrigerated them and then ate them chilled – I have always been a fan of cold chocolate! 🙂

    I do wish the consistency of the cookie dough was more dough-like, but I am assuming it’s because the eggs are missing. Unless I whipped mine too much, my filling turned out more like a cream/frosting. But it definitely had the cookie dough taste, so that was perfect! Also, I only ended up with 17 sandwiches, so I must have been making my cookies too large. Next time I will scale them down a bit!

    Thanks for sharing this recipe! 🙂

  380. Oh gosh I love them both. But I usually eat to much cookie dough and don’t eat as many cookies.

  381. I made these for our 4th of July party! They were a hit and didn’t last very long. They are on the list to make again SOON!

  382. I am a cookie dough junkie but my daughter (who also shares my love of cookie dough) likes to make the dough and the cookies, so this recipe is perfect. I can’t wait to make them with my daughter!

  383. Cookie dough is so addictive! I always end up eating the all of it before I can make even a dozen cookies! And my cookies never turn out quite right, hopefully this book can help 😉

    So, I guess the verdict is that cookie dough wins!

  384. This is a hard one!! Chocolate Chip cookies are my favorite but of course I have to eat some of the cookie dough first!! I love them both!! So what wouldn’t be better than a chocolate chip cookie with the cookie dough!! Oh that would be heaven!!

  385. I prefer cookie dough. BUT cookies fresh from the oven are also to-die-for! Ok, evne 3-day-old cookies make me happy 🙂

  386. 100% cookie dough! Unless we are talking about cookies just out of the oven…then its a toss up!

  387. Raw cookie dough inside 2 cookies? That just seems wrong. I like raw cookie dough. I like cookies. But the two together is just….disgusting. LOL

  388. if you are into cookie dough, you have to try edoughble cookie dough!!!! You can use this to frost baked goods, add to ice cream or shakes, or eat right out of the container!! This stuff is indulgent! Let me know what you think!

  389. Just made them! Next time have to double the icing recipe there was not enough for all the cookies…. a little disappointed bout that

  390. Oh man, these are SO SO SO delicious. Made them tonight and wanted to finish them off myself. Thanks for the recipe. Good job on your blog.

  391. 5 stars
    Love these but wondering if the flour in the icing is safe as is? Isn’t flour raw? I have seen other recipes say to heat the flour first. Would that be the case here too? (Especially wondering since I used to be a health inspector and I’m currently pregnant so being extra cautious. )

  392. 5 stars
    I made these cookies and they were so good I took them to the farmers market along with my other stuff and sold them! turned out great. Now I am going to offer and change up the filling.
