Cookie Dough Pops are like cake pops, only much easier to make (and in this blogger's opinion, much tastier, too!). I'll show you how to make this safe-to-eat edible cookie dough with no eggs and with the option to heat treat your flour (recommended if you intend to serve these to others) for a fun and unique snack! I used these cake pop sticks (affiliate) from Amazon for dipping my cookie dough pops
In a large bowl using an electric mixer, beat together softened butter and sugars. Beat well until creamy.
1 cup unsalted butter, 1 ½ cup brown sugar, ¼ cup sugar
Add vanilla extract and salt, stir well.
1 teaspoon vanilla extract, ½ teaspoon salt
Gradually add cooled, sifted flour mixture, stirring until completely combined.
1 ¾ cup all-purpose flour**
Stir in mini chocolate chips.
½ cup mini chocolate chips
Scoop cookie dough into 1 ½ Tablespoon-sized balls and roll between your palms until smooth.
Place on a wax paper lined cookie sheet and chill in the refrigerator for 20 minutes (I don't advise chilling longer than this as they will not take the cake pop sticks as well if they are chilled much longer).
While the dough chills, prepare a box or piece of styrafoam by making a tiny hole in your surface, check to be sure that a cake pop stick fits and will be supported once you add your cookie dough.
Once cookie dough balls have chilled, prepare melting wafers in a small bowl according to package instructions.
10 oz dark chocolate melting wafers
Dip one end of your cake pop stick about ½" into the melted dark chocolate, and then gently insert about halfway into a cookie dough ball.
Hold the stick and dip cookie dough into your bowl of melted dark chocolate. Drain off excess chocolate and then immediately add sprinkles. Place the stick into your prepared box or styrofoam to allow the chocolate to harden before storing or serving.

Enjoy!
Notes
**Raw flour has been linked to E-Coli. In order to protect yourself you may wish to heat treat your flour before using. You can follow my instructions here in my edible cookie dough post if you would like to heatproof your flour.Cookie dough pops will keep up to a week in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
