Satisfy that sweet tooth with this easy chocolate chip cookie dough! It’s single serving, gluten-free and vegan.

Single serving chocolate chip cookie dough made from ingredients you already have on hand! No beans or food processor required. Gluten Free + Vegan

Cravings are real, friends. They’re real real. While I am an advocate of consuming whole, high-quality foods that provide the best fuel possible for our bodies, I also know that some days we just want to face plant into some cookie dough. 

Today is one of those days. 

Satisfy that sweet tooth with this easy chocolate chip cookie dough! It's single serving, gluten-free and vegan.

At this point, you may think I am cookie obsessed since I did just post a chocolate chip cookie recipe a few weeks ago. Chances are you’re right. While I haven’t been officially diagnosed with obsessive cookie disorder, if the cookie game presented to me is on point I’m going to take advantage. Am I even making sense right now? Please don’t answer that. 

Fun fact: I usually post new recipes here on the blog every Tuesday and Friday. Well, this past Thursday (aka yesterday) I was lounging around after doing a little yoga and had a massive sweet tooth/cookie dough craving. While trying to decide how I was going to satisfy my cookie dough craving, it hit me: I had no blog post ready to go up today. I totally spaced it. Hello, McFly. I was going to chalk it up to the game when I realized I could kill two birds (cookie dough craving and lack of blog post) with one stone. I mean, I could if I whipped up some delicious faux cookie dough in a snap and had the patience to take photos of it. 

Check and check. This recipe is the easiest. No beans, no food processor. Just a handful of ingredients you likely have on hand that take seconds to mix together. You’re welcome, friends. Grab a spoon and dig in!

    Love the simplicity of this recipe! You had me at vegan & GF! I’ll have to pick up some chocolate chips so I can make this. I love one serving size dishes since I live alone and can’t share my treats with family & don’t wanna eat a whole pan of something myself. Yum!

    I satisfy my sweet tooth with chocolate nut milk. Something about it is so comforting!

    That is such a good idea! I never really make anything “for one”, even if it is just for me! So this would absolutely help my serving sizes in check – especially when we’re talking about this delicious gluten free vegan cookie dough! Ygg, I like the way you think!

    For those late night cravings that you just can’t stop…or anytime cravings, really! I can’t say I can think of a time I’d readily turn down some cookie dough.

  5. Liz @ The Clean Eating Couple says: November 20, 2015 at 6:50 am

    Good thing this is only for one serving because I probably wouldn’t be able to control myself. Looks SO yummy!

  6. Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says: November 20, 2015 at 7:58 am

    Love that you can just eat it all!! If I get a sweet craving, I usually just make my next meal…sweet somehow!

  7. Emilie @ Emilie Eats says: November 20, 2015 at 8:23 am

    😍😍😍😍 is all I can say. I post on Tuesdays and Fridays too…are we the same person? Judging by the intense love of cookie dough, I’d say yes.

    I LOVE making single serve cookie dough except mine is usually full of butter and white sugar…oops! I can’t wait to try this healthier version 🙂

  9. Christina says: November 20, 2015 at 9:19 am

    This is so cool and easy! Totally doing this around ‘that time’ next month ;D haha

  10. Leah M @ love me, feed me says: November 20, 2015 at 9:46 am

    I may have to run to the kitchen and whip this up like right now. Yum!

  11. Rachel says: November 20, 2015 at 10:05 am

    you actually just made all my dreams come true AND i have all of these ingredients AKA making this tomorrow.

  12. Chrissa - Physical Kitchness says: November 20, 2015 at 10:43 am

    Ummm YES! I struggle with after dinner treats because they are never ONE serving, which then makes me eat way more than I need to (no self control sometimes). Thanks for this! NOM!

  13. Brie @ Lean, Clean, & Brie says: November 20, 2015 at 2:28 pm

    I’m thinking I just might have to whip this up tonight! Good thing I already have all the ingredients ready 🙂

  14. Deanna says: November 20, 2015 at 4:31 pm

    These sound really yummy! I like how simple the recipe is.

  15. candy says: November 20, 2015 at 4:58 pm

    Yummy in my tummy! Thanks.

  16. Logan Can says: November 20, 2015 at 6:17 pm

    I’m a huge cookie dough fan! This looks delicious. I will be trying it for sure!

  17. Missy - Getting Fit to Find Myself says: November 20, 2015 at 7:28 pm

    I could have used this earlier tonight! I already wrote the recipe out and have it on the fridge! I can’t wait to try it!

  18. jennyb says: November 20, 2015 at 11:21 pm

    Yum and so easy for me to make. Definitely trying this one.

  19. Margaret @ youngandrungry says: November 21, 2015 at 8:54 am

    This single lady loves a recipe for one and loves even more that I have all these ingredients in my kitchen already. And don’t worry, we’re all a little cookie obsessed.

  20. Tish says: November 21, 2015 at 9:42 am

    I think my boyfriend would love this. And the portion is small enough to stop him form pigging out 🙂

  21. Chelsea says: November 21, 2015 at 11:23 am

    Cookie dough that I can eat without risking getting sick? YOU ARE A GENIUS!

  22. Nicole says: November 21, 2015 at 2:29 pm

    I love the idea of having this option. I want the satisfaction of cookie dough without the gluten.

  23. Kellen says: November 22, 2015 at 8:22 pm

    Currently drooling….Definitely making a batch of this ASAP.

  24. Susie @ SuzLyfe says: November 23, 2015 at 11:55 am

    This is so dangerous. I know that it is meant to be portion controlled, but dang!

  25. Jess @hellotofit says: November 23, 2015 at 5:19 pm

    Les, you have shared another alternative to banana ice cream! << that is usually my go-to, or just a mug-full of the real thing.
