Cookie Dough Stuffed Pretzels are the perfect sweet and salty treat, with eggless cookie dough stuffed in the middle of two salty and crunchy pretzels, and all dipped in chocolate!
I can’t stop making treats with cookie dough. #SorryNotSorry 😉 So I hope you guys love it as much as I do. Edible cookie dough is egg free and delicious to eat on its own. I mean, who doesn’t love cookie dough straight from the bowl? Cookie dough is SO good and perfect in these cookie dough stuffed pretzels too.
These pretzel bites are the perfect little bite sized treat. And so easy to make too. They’re a delicious no bake treat which is perfect for the summer, because I can’t be alone in thinking its so dang hot outside and I want to keep my house as cool as possible.
First, all you need to do is make a batch of eggless chocolate chip cookie dough. Roll the cookie dough into little balls. Top a pretzel with a cookie dough ball, then squish it down with a second mini pretzel on top. Chill them for a few minutes to get them nice and stuck together and now its time to dip them in chocolate! Melt up some chocolate in the microwave and then dunk them on in. Dunking them half way is best because it makes the dunking a lot easier for you, so you can hold on to the other half while you dip them. You can top them with sprinkles if you want to, or drizzle a little white chocolate over the top.
Let the chocolate harden a bit, I usually keep them in the fridge because I like the crunch it gives the chocolate. Plus your chocolate will harden a lot quicker in the fridge. Now you’re ready to dig in.
If you can handle not eating the whole batch at once, they’ll stay good in the fridge for a few days. I let them harden on a cookie sheet, then place them all in a bag to save on space and to keep them good.
This recipe makes about 24 of these babies, but can easily be cut in half if you only want a few, or doubled if you need extra for a party.
They are the perfect sweet and salty treat! And who doesn’t love salty and sweet? They also have the perfect texture from the soft cookie dough and the crunchy pretzels – I promise you won’t be able to eat just one!
