She who has cookie dough is never alone.
There are two explanations for this. One: if you have cookie dough, your friends will all want some too, and thus they will gravitate towards you. And two: even if your friends do not come running (which, by the way, means you have super-odd friends), you’ve still got cookie dough to keep you company!
Above, a delicious batch of Chocolate-Chip Cookie Dough Babies.
My friends were all busy yesterday, so I made new friends. Chocolate friends. Healthy and sugar-free cookie dough balls that taste exactly like way better than cookie dough Larabars.
If you have not tried this recipe yet, I highly recommend it!!
I devoured my new friends.
Without remorse.
Yeah, maybe you don’t really wanna be friends with me.
And soon…
The babies need siblings: Chocolate Peanut Butter Balls















The new header looks great! No, really it does 🙂 I very much enjoy my alone time but only really early in the morning. I get up and hang out with my morning coffee and read before the hubby and dogs get up. It’s quite peaceful
The new header looks great! I’m glad you’ve found your “niche” 🙂
Is the new header the reason why you didn’t make a post yesterday? :D:D
Haha no… it actually took about three minutes this morning. I was just busy yesterday… I am gearing up for a huge post on Tuesday, so I needed the extra time :).
You look gorgeous in the picture on your header! 😀 And I love the new header, although I did really like the “where healthy tastes naughty” from the last header. Still, the new one is great! 🙂
I love both alone time and friend time! When I’m alone, I usually read, ride my horse, or bake 🙂
Oh I made your cookie dough batter dip yesterday and I loved it. Like REALLY loved it! I ate it as a dip, in a sandwich, with a spoon… and I think I dreamed about it last night too 😉 I think I could taste the beans a little bit, but that was probably only because I knew they were there. And I loooove beans so I don’t care if I can taste them a bit! The thickness was PERFECT too! I used 1/4 cup quick oats and 1/4 cup almond milk. I also used peanut butter and then omitted the salt because the pb was salted. Oh and I used six drops of stevia for the sweetener and that was perfect! So yeah, another winner for sure, and I’m already dreaming about making it again! 😀 And probably soon since I doubt this batch will last much longer… And my mom liked it too! She even knew it was supposed to be cookie dough! 🙂 She thought it could be a bit sweeter – we have different taste buds when it comes to sweetness. AND it really passed the test because even my dad liked it! (That’s definitely saying something as he can be picky!) Of course, he thought it could use a bit more sugar too, so I’ll have to make another batch for my parents sometime and make it sweeter. And my dad had no idea there were beans in it! 🙂 (I think I will also put this part of my comment on your cookie dough dip post so others can see how amazing it is and be encouraged to make it themselves! 🙂 )
Have an amazing rest of the weekend!!!! 😀

You are SO sweet! And I am also so happy you posted in the other post… because someone else just posted about how she hated it. But guess what… she didn’t follow my recipe at all! It frustrates me when people make a ton of changes to my recipes and then blame me when they go wrong lol.
You are super-adorable 🙂
I LOVE the simple ingredients in these and how simple they are to make are to make.
And the new header is fabulous!
I like the new header! Also, I emailed you about my address and stuff, I understand if you’re busy and haven’t gotten to it, but I just want to make sure you got it since I’ve delayed you already about a week for the Chia Seed contest. Thanks!
Got it and sent it off to Elana 🙂
Thank you again and sorry for the delay!
Yes, alone time is essential. Being around lots of people too much can be exhausting.
I love the new header! The Healthy Dessert Blog – sounds awesome 🙂
I love my friends, but sometimes it is such a pleasure to have a time spent alone, reading a book, listening to a good music, painting or thinking of new recipes 🙂
I think it’s very important, for me at least, to find the right balance between social time and alone time. I am the type of person who NEEDS that alone time…otherwise i would go insane!
I adore the new blog header!!!!
I think your header is super cute — I like that picture of you!
I love alone time — I like to read, exercise, bake, nap 🙂
i love your blog header! and i like being alone, too. about your blog header, it’s funny because your hair is brown, “chocolate brown” so it could be like your head is covered in chocolate! =P very cute. you’re awesome!
xx alexandra
I noticed that too! I originally had a less-zoomed-in photo, but as soon as I saw the chocolate hair, I just had to take advantage of that!
I always like to cook with a great soundtrack when I’m alone and have no plans!
I love having alone time, actually. I guess you could say that I’m a bit of a homebody. When I’m alone I love to cook, bake, read, draw, blog (yay!), exercise, do yoga, meditate, half-heartedly watch television while I exercise…a little boring, but hey. It’s what I do 🙂
And I really like the header! Oh, and ironically I also made a batch of chocolate chip cookie dough babies yesterday! They are rather fantastic 🙂
I love the new header!! “Healthy Dessert Blog” is perfect and the picture of you looks great 🙂
Loving that proverb! 😉
lovelove the new header! excellent proverb btw 🙂
