Frozen Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Sundae Recipe
We froze chocolate chip cookie dough to mimic ice cream, covered it in fudge, and topped it off with whipped cream and a cherry for the our very own Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Sundae!
Have you ever looked at a bowl of cookie dough and thought, “This is delicious, but wouldn’t it be even better if it was cold and scoopable like ice cream?”
Well, dream no more! Calling all cookie dough lovers! These Frozen Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Sundaes take your favorite indulgence to the next level with a frozen twist. This recipe idea came to us in the middle of a 90-degree heat wave while snacking on some chickpea cookie dough.
We’ll show you how to create bite-sized pieces of edible cookie dough that freeze perfectly, offering the flavor and texture you love without the guilt of raw eggs. Layered with decadent toppings, this sundae is a fun and delicious twist on a classic dessert.
Plus, it’s surprisingly simple to make, requiring minimal ingredients and prep work.
Ingredients and Tools Needed
- All purpose flour
- Brown sugar
- Mini chocolate chips
- Smucker’s Chocolate Magic Shell — Or any chocolate magic shell that will harden
- Softened butter
- Vanilla extract
- Water
- Whipped cream and cherries — To garnish
- Silicone ice cube tray
Do You Need To Heat-Treat the Flour?
Heat-treating is process of heating flour to kill the bacterias. This process is typically done when making edible cookie dough. Because our recipe does not call for any raw eggs, we did not heat treat the flour. However, you can take this extra step for safe measures. Heat-treating flour in the microwave is the easiest method.
How to heat-treat flour in the microwave:
1 — Place the flour in a microwave safe bowl and heat for 30 second intervals.
2 — Stir with a spatula in between. Make sure none of the ingredients have harden or burnt. This can quickly happen with flour. Make sure the flour has reached 165°F throughout.
How to Make Frozen Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Sundaes
1 — In a large bowl, cream together your softened butter and brown sugar. Aim for a light and fluffy texture by beating for about 2 minutes with an electric mixer (or good old-fashioned arm power!).
2 — When fully blended, thoroughly mix in the vanilla extract, water, flour and chocolate chips.
At this point, it might look crumbly. If this is the case, mix and mold the dough mixture with your hands to make it less crumbly. If it still doesn’t gel together, add a little bit of water.
3 — Stuff the mixture in a squared ice cube tray. And then, freeze for at least 2 hours or until completely solid.
4 — Take out your frozen cookie dough bites. Drizzle your Smucker’s Chocolate Magic Shell over the entire sundae. Watch as it hardens into a decadent chocolate coating, a delightful textural contrast to the creamy ice cream and chewy cookie dough.
5 — Top with whipped cream and cherries!
Recipe Notes and Tips
- If your brown sugar is clumpy, break it up with a fork before creaming it with the butter. This will help it incorporate smoothly.
- Avoid overmixing! Overworking the dough can make the cookie dough tough when frozen. Mix until there are no streaks of flour remaining.
- Want to get extra fancy? Add chopped nuts, sprinkles, or a drizzle of caramel sauce for an over-the-top sundae experience!
- Instead of using an ice tray, you can also mold your sundae into a ball with an ice cream scooper or your hands.
