Chocolate Covered Cookie Dough Bites Calories

If you’re counting calories and want to know how many calories are in chocolate covered edible cookie dough, know that there are roughly 100-150 calories in 2 tablespoons of standard dough bites.

Because cookie dough is often portioned by tablespoon and then hand-rolled into balls, you may expect two cookie dough balls to be the equivalent of 100-150 calories.

Of course, how many calories in different types of chocolate covered cookie dough bites will flex and flow depending on the ingredients used in the recipe. While many cookie dough recipes contain butter, some call for other fats such as olive oil, coconut oil, or even vegan butter. All of these substitutes will yield a different calorie count in the final product.

Thus, it can be hard to definitively say how many calories are in different types of chocolate covered cookie dough bites.

Chocolate Covered Cookie Dough Bites Nutrition

Remember that most chocolate covered cookie dough bites won’t be healthy. This is due to the excess chocolate, butter, and sugar involved in the recipe.

If you are looking to lighten up your chocolate covered cookie dough balls, be sure to make the proper substitutions when necessary. Though we’ve provided you with a healthy edible chocolate chip cookie dough recipe, it’s important to note that you can always swap ingredients in the original recipe in order to customize it to your diet.

Popular ingredient swaps for cookie dough balls include:

• Sugar-free (or dairy-free) chocolate chips

• Raw sugar (instead of white granulated sugar)
• Sweetener (like erythritol, instead of sugar)

Note: Never use coconut flour for all-purpose flour at a 1:1 ratio. Substituting coconut flour for all-purpose flour may ruin your recipe, as these types of flour do not make good cup-for-cup substitutions when baking.
