Chocolate chip Fried Cookie Dough for the ultimate indulgent dessert!
Okay, I went there, y’all! I fried cookie dough! Yes…I battered and fried balls of chocolate chip loaded cookie dough and there’s no going back. Wow!
Talk about the ultimate indulgence! A thin layer of crispy sweet breading surrounds melting chocolate chip cookie dough that will literally make you weak in the knees.
It’s super easy to make these little balls of fried bliss. You just mix together the cookie dough and freeze it in balls while you prep the batter and oil. Then it’s fry time…
Once I fried and tasted my first one, I had to keep telling myself “just keep calm and fry on”! 😉 Mmmm-AZING!!
I have a feeling we’ll be frying cookie dough pretty frequently from now on! An experience I definitely want to experience over and over again!
Indulge & Enjoy!

Description
Chocolate chip Fried Cookie Dough for the ultimate indulgent dessert!
Ingredients
Dough:
- 4 tablespoons butter, softened
- 1/3 cup light brown sugar
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup chocolate chips
Batter:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, for dipping
- 4–5 cups vegetable oil, for frying
- powdered sugar, for dusting
Instructions
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- Cookie Dough: In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat the butter and sugars until smooth. Add the vanilla and milk and beat until well combined. Stir in the flour until just combined and then the chocolate chips until distributed throughout the dough. Scoop two-teaspoon sized balls of dough onto the parchment lined baking sheet. Freeze for 20 minutes while you prepare the batter and heat the oil.
- For the batter, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar and salt in a large bowl. In a separate small bowl, whisk together the milk, oil and vanilla. Add to the dry ingredients and whisk until thin and smooth.
- Heat the oil in a large frying pan to 375°F.
- Remove the cookie dough from the freezer and shape into smooth round balls with your hands. Place 1/2 cup flour in a small bowl. Roll each ball of cookie dough in the flour and then dip in the batter, using a fork to roll it around in the batter and transfer it to the hot oil for frying. Fry each ball of dough for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown all around and crisp on the outside. Remove to a paper towel and dust with powdered sugar before serving. Best served immediately.
Please Tell.I dont have brown sugar so can i use just the white sugar. Also how much time it would take if i mix manually instead of using electric mixer.
Hi NJ! Yes, you can substitute the brown sugar for an equal amount of white sugar. It won’t take too much more time to mix the dough by hand, just be sure to mix it until it’s well combined. Enjoy!

Hello these sound great! I will be making some today. My question is, can I make the batter without using sugar? Will it still be as delicious as the recipe including sugar?
Hi BreAnna! Since there’s only 1 tablespoon in the batter, it would be worth a try. The slight sweetness of the batter compliments the cookie dough so well that it probably won’t taste the same. Enjoy!
Tried to make this yesterday and when I put the cookie dough/batter in the oil the cookie dough ended up separating from the batter, any suggestions?
Hi Tiffany! Did you coat the frozen balls of cookie dough in flour first and then the batter? The flour helps the batter stick. Also, the balls of dough should be completely covered in batter to where you can’t see any cookie dough before you fry them. Hope this helps.

Hey! I want to make them to bring to a super bowl party. So I can’t really serve them immediately. It’d be a couple hours later. Would that be okay?
Hi Brudget! Yes, they will still taste great! Just make sure you fry them until they’re nice and crispy. And just store them on a plate or platter covered in plastic wrap instead of sealed in a contianer so the moisture from the cookie dough doesn’t make the coating too moist. Enjoy!
