Introduction

There are two kinds of people in the world: those who like cookie dough, and people who are wrong about cookie dough. Raw is better than baked. I will not be taking questions.

What Is Actually In It

Butter, cream cheese, almond flour, golden monk fruit, vanilla and salt, with chocolate chips folded through. No egg, and no wheat flour.

The missing egg is worth naming because it is the reason people usually give, and it is not enough on its own. The CDC and the FDA both warn about raw eggs and raw grain flour, and the FDA says plainly that leaving the egg out does not make a raw flour dough safe. So “no egg” removes one familiar concern. It does not settle the question.

What those pages do not cover is almond flour, and that is what this recipe has you eating uncooked. So the check is yours to make: buy an almond flour that says it is intended for ready-to-eat or no-bake use, and follow whatever its maker tells you if it does not say that. We have not verified any particular brand, and we are not telling you the recipe is safe raw — we are telling you which ingredient decides it.

The Chocolate Is the Adjustable Part

We used three kinds, which is where the “triple chocolate” comes from:

If that is more chocolate than you want, use less, or swap the chips for nuts. The dough does not depend on them.

We use ChocZero’s because they stay creamy rather than setting into the hard, slightly plastic texture some sugar-free chips have.

Why Golden Monk Fruit and Not Classic

Lakanto’s Golden is the brown sugar substitute, and a chocolate chip cookie dough is a brown sugar recipe.

We find it makes the dough chewier and a little moister than Classic does. I could not tell you the science behind that, only that we can taste the difference. If you are choosing among Golden, Classic, powdered, or liquid monk fruit products for another recipe, our monk fruit sweetener guide explains what changes between the forms instead of treating them as one ingredient.

Two Chills, Not One

The dough goes into the fridge for 15 to 20 minutes to firm up before you scoop it, and then the scooped bites go back in until firm. Two separate waits, both short.

The chocolate drizzle on top is optional, and it needs its own ten minutes in the fridge afterwards.

About these numbers: We are home cooks, not certified nutritionists. Nutrition is shared as a courtesy and calculated with free online nutrition calculators — we compare a few to get as close as we can — so please treat it as a helpful estimate rather than a guarantee. The brands you buy, any swaps you make, and how generously you portion the recipe will all move these numbers.

Directions

  1. Combine the softened butter and cream cheese in a bowl, using a hand mixer.

  2. Add in the almond flour, sweetener, vanilla extract and salt, and combine.

  3. Fold in the chocolate chips.

  5. Cover the bowl and place in the refrigerator to firm slightly for 15-20 minutes.

  6. Using a small cookie scoop, form about 24 balls of cookie dough. Place each ball on a lined pan or plate and refrigerate until firm.

  7. Optional - drizzle melted chocolate over the bites and allow them to firm in the refrigerator again for at least 10 minutes.

Notes

Yield. This makes about 20 to 24 bites, and the Nutrition Facts panel divides by 24. Scooping larger bites gives you fewer of them, each a little higher in everything the panel lists.

Storage. These are a cream cheese dessert, so keep the finished bites covered in the refrigerator rather than at room temperature, and do not leave them out more than two hours, or one hour above 90°F. How many days they keep in there we have not tested.

Where They Live Afterwards

Those chills firm the bites up; they are not the same thing as storing them. Eight ounces of cream cheese makes this a perishable dessert, so the finished bites go into an airtight container in the refrigerator, not a tin on the counter, and come back out only for as long as you are eating them.

Don’t leave them out for more than two hours, or one hour if the room is above 90°F.

How many days they keep in there we have not tested, so we are not going to put a number on it.

If no-bake is what you are here for, our No Bake Keto Cheesecake is the other one worth a look.

Updated — September 10, 2026: We removed a step-by-step section that repeated the recipe card, made the raw-dough safety reasoning explicit instead of resting it on the missing egg, and moved storage below the recipe.
