How to Make Oreo Cookie Dough Bites

Step 1: Heat-Treat Your Flour (Optional but Recommended)

To make the flour safe to eat, spread it on a baking sheet and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 5–7 minutes. Let cool before using.

Step 2: Make the Dough

In a large bowl, beat the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until creamy and fluffy.
Mix in the vanilla extract.
Gradually add the flour and salt, mixing until just combined.
Add milk, one tablespoon at a time, until the dough reaches a soft, scoopable consistency.

Step 3: Add the Mix-Ins

Fold in the crushed Oreos and mini chocolate chips until evenly distributed.

Step 4: Roll and Chill

Roll the dough into bite-sized balls (about 1 inch in diameter) and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up.

Step 5: Dip in Chocolate

Melt the chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring between each until smooth.
Dip each dough bite into the chocolate, letting the excess drip off before placing it back on the parchment.
Refrigerate again for 15–20 minutes, or until the coating is set.

Step 6: Enjoy!

Serve chilled or at room temperature. Store leftovers (if any!) in the fridge or freezer.

What to Serve With Oreo Cookie Dough Bites

Honestly? These bites are perfect all on their own. But if you’re feeling fancy:

• Pair with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a dessert platter

• Serve with hot cocoa or espresso for a cozy treat

• Add to a dessert board with strawberries, pretzels, and more chocolate goodies

Tips for the Best Cookie Dough Bites

• Soften your butter for easy mixing—but not melted!

• Chill before dipping to keep the bites firm and prevent them from falling apart in the chocolate.

• Use a fork or dipping tool for easy chocolate coating.

• Sprinkle crushed Oreos or sea salt on top before the chocolate sets for extra flair.

Storage Instructions

• Refrigerator: Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.

• Freezer: These freeze beautifully! Freeze for up to 3 months, and let sit at room temp for a few minutes before enjoying.
