Chocolate Covered Caramel Cookie Dough Pretzel Cups (FOOD PHOTO SHOOT)

Do you guys know what’s better than cookie dough……………?

If you’re thinking “Um, NOTHING, duh!”, well, that’s completely right, but cookie dough covered in chocolate is also the right answer! True stuff.

Growing up in my house would not have been the same without Mom’s amazing chocolate chip cookies. Of course, the excitement we’d have when we heard the mixer going wasn’t as much about the cookies as it was about getting to be her poison-checkers. We were all privileged enough to know that the dough is where it’s at. I’d take the dough over the cookies every time. I’m obsessed!

Our temperatures have been teeter-tottering back and forth and it’s really messing with my head. Also this month, we have a few back to back birthdays to celebrate and that means I get to make cake (or at least some kind of over-the-top dessert for the unconventional ones)!

Okay, but these cookie dough bites are what I’m sharing. I created them as an alternate flavor to go with my homemade Reese’s eggs and almond joys that I always make for Halloween or Easter and they are so good. To clear up any confusion on the caramel part, you mix it into the dough. I happened to have some extra caramel on my hands the day I was making them so I used it as my liquid in the dough Since you can’t buy brown sugar here, caramel is what I’ve been using a lot recently in it’s place and I’ve been loving the results. Also, the cookie dough part is egg free so you don’t have to freak about salmonella or anything.

So I made them in two different sizes because I couldn’t decide which one I liked better, one in a mini cupcake pan that gives them a more rounded look and the other in regular cupcake size liners to give them a frilled edge like Reese’s cups. Also, I think the pretzels add the perfect salty crunch to balance them out but I’d say they’re an optional thing because not everyone in my gang was as into them being on top of these. You can decide what you think.
