Liquid Cookie Dough.
Imagine this: It’s a cold winter’s morning, and you hurry into the local coffee shop for a steaming-hot latte to counter the chill. The barista behind the counter asks, “Would you like a plain latte? Or would you prefer a rich and creamy ‘dessert’ latte that tastes like a warm chocolate-chip cookie, straight out of the oven?”
Which would you choose?
Is that even a question?
Who wouldn’t choose the liquid cookie dough?
What are some good latte flavor ideas?
What about a Coconut Cream Pie Latte? Or a French Toast Latte? For my dream latte, I think I’ll have to be boring and say: Chocolate Brownie Latte. You just can’t ever go wrong with chocolate.
Cookie Dough Latte
(Serves 1-2)
- 3/4 cup creamer (such as Silk) or canned coconut milk (180g)
- 3/4 cup milk of choice, or 3/4 cup more creamer or coconut milk (180g)
- 1 tbsp brown sugar or coconut brown sugar (8g)
- stevia (or more brown sugar) to taste. Amount will depend on the sweetness of the milk you use.
- 1/8 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- Optional: 1/2 tsp instant coffee granules. It’s not technically a “latte” without coffee… but really, who cares?
- Optional: mini chips, whipped topping, eggless cookie dough…
Combine first six ingredients in a small pot or microwave-safe dish, stir, and heat until desired temperature is reached. Either use a coffee frother to make foam, or whisk the milk while it’s on the stove, then hold the foam back with a spoon as you pour the latte into a mug and add the foam at the very end. Garnish if desired, and enjoy!
Link Of The Day:
In an attempt to keep my weight down I have cut most latte’s out. SO SAD! But if I splurge it’s coconut, gingerbread, cinnamon and pumpkin. My question is:
Can we determine peoples personalities by their coffee/latte preference? My hubs is a coffee with my coffee kinda guy, but he does like pumpkin and mocha. I’m always interested in the “why” of people. Just wondering if anyone has taken the time to determine that!
Oh, my goodness! This sounds perfect on those days where you need something to convince you to get out of bed! Or when you need something on your desk while you write! Or when you want something to drink and eat while you read and AWESOME book, but you don’t have time to make cookies! Or really anytime, I presume.
I think that a S’More latte would be heaven, or a treacle latte… but that would be more a gingerbread latte… How about a green tea latte? Or a fruit latte?
I have to admit, I was totally skeptical that this would taste like cookie dough…but it totally does! I just made myself a cup, and oh my god, so delicious. I was all out of soy creamer and coconut milk, so I just used all soy milk and it was still really good. I can’t wait to try it again after I go grocery shopping though!
This latte looks really good – and healthy! I can’t wait to try.

Liquid cookie dough – a great idea! I like it!
I made this today (non-coffee version), but I wanted it to be sugar free so I just used stevia and added 1/4 tsp molasses (1/8 tsp per serving) to get the caramely flavor you get from brown sugar. Let me tell you – this recipe did NOT disappoint. 🙂
Thank you for the variation, Whitney, for using all stevia. Tried it this morning and was VERY happy with it!
Just made this drink..I added a tsp of granulated decaf…it was AMAZING!
My Flavor ideas: Oreo cookie or Cookies and Cream Lattee, I love the S’mores idea and maybe Toffee, Praline or Buttered Pecan?
THANK YOU! I just finished drinking this. I was looking for a night time snack. Something sweet and this was perfect! Totally warmed me up (live in PA suburbs where it is currently in the – wind chill). I loved ever sip! And plan on making it this with hot coco (instead of coffee) for my little girls! You are amazing thank you!
I’m confused. Why would you call something a latte if it only has a smidgen of coffee granules in it? Am I missing something? Does adding more coffee throw off the flavor profile? Help!
