These Funfetti Sugar Cookie Dough Bites are eggless sugar cookie dough bites with funfetti sprinkles. Your cookie dough eating just became even more fun!
So, if you didn’t guess by the candle in the picture today I am celebrating my birthday. Another year wiser and older, the older part is the only guarantee.
It’s funny, yesterday when my kids asked me how old I would be I told them 37! Umm… nope, I am turning 36. Does anyone else forget how old they are? Seriously, a few years ago when I turned 33, the instructor in my workout class asked me how old I was. I replied 35. It was for half of the year that I told people I was 35. It wasn’t until I told my husband “that I felt so old and can’t believe I am halfway to 70” when he told me I wasn’t. He gently said, “do the math honey”.
I realized I had just given myself the best birthday present ever…another 2 years! SWEET. Honestly, I think it is some sort of mom syndrome, you focus so much on your kids’ birthdays and how old they are getting, that you forget about your aging process as well.
You know that whole saying, “if I knew now what I knew in my 20’s”, so true! Right?! But here is what I was thought yesterday. If I knew now what I knew in my 20’s, I would have eaten more, drank more, and well, chocolate after every meal. I would have more enjoyed my 20-year-old metabolism, I would have thought less about what others cared and sang more out loud, I would have started working out more, so that it wasn’t so hard as I got older, and I would have worn a bikini top with shorts… I know a weird one right. But I would have had more confidence and appreciated what I had.
My husband always tells me I shouldn’t say “should have” or “could have”, can’t change anything and why dwell. So I guess today instead of what I should have done, I’ll focus on what I will do…here they are: love my body, appreciate my features gray hair and all, love that I can still go run 13 miles on a whim and not die, love my stomach for all the 5 children it has carried, sing out loud and dance randomly, I know my husband will love those two. And every day live like I am thankful and blessed…well because I am.
Oh and one last one, eat more cookie dough!
Enjoy! XOXO San
How do you make Funfetti Sugar Cookie Dough Bites?
In a medium-sized bowl, sift together flour, salt, cornstarch, and baking soda. In a mixing bowl, beat in butter, sugar, and vanilla extract until it is creamy.
Add in flour mixture until it starts to come together and is smooth, add milk 1 teaspoon at a time until you get the consistency you are looking for stiff cookie dough. I use approximately 2 teaspoons. Stir in sprinkles until well combined.
Scoop a heaping tablespoon of dough, pack it in, and place it on a sheet pan. I use a cookie dough scooper to do this. You can also roll them into balls if you’d like. Place pan in the refrigerator to chill, approximately 10 minutes. {TIP} I find it easier if you are going to roll them into balls, place the dough in the refrigerator for 10 minutes, then roll the scooped dough into balls.
While the dough is chilling, melt chocolate according to package directions. I heat in 30-second intervals until chocolate is completely melted.
Decorate with the chocolate how you could like, I like to dip the tops in, then sprinkle with funfetti sprinkles. The kids like a light drizzle which is easy to do by placing the melted chocolate in a
Ziploc bag with the corner snipped off.
Once the bites are drizzled, covered or dipped in chocolate, finish them off with sprinkles of course. Now they are ready to enjoy!
To store these cookie dough bites, place in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

Happy Birthday sweet girl!!!! I always have to stop and think how old I am now…apparently as we get older it just all starts to mush together, huh? These little cookie dough bites are too fun. I love that you dipped them halfway in chocolate and added sprinkles. And the candle…perfect touch! My bday is next week…I guess I should start thinking about what I want to celebrate with!
These are so adorable and look so scrumptious! And more importantly, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU! Seriously, embrace who you are now. I’m in my 20s and I still say “I wish I would have…” for my teenage years. There’s no point in dwelling; you can’t change it! Instead, love yourself who you are, what you can do, and who you’ve become over the years, because there’s only one you! <3 Love you!
Those look awesome! i love cookie dough — who doesn’t? — so I’d love to gobble up some of these bites 🙂
You said it friend. Bikinis all the way! Haha and more exercise so I would not be so out of shape now. And probably more vacations. Love this. Happy birthday
