Editor’s Note: When deciding what recipe to feature from Rorie Weisberg’s newest book, written in collaboration with the talented Sara Goldstein of @tomatoestomatoes, More Food You Love That Loves You Back, our first question was, “What would our readers love?” It was hard to choose! But this recipe, with its few ingredients, and ease of prep won us over.
It’s the feel-good chocolate chip cookie in the bark form that’s so much fun to eat. Enjoy this recipe and many more feel good wholesome recipes in Rorie and Sara’s book!
“If you know modern baking trends, you know cookie dough bark. And chances are, you love it! Once I got the hang of ‘freeing my favorites’ using healthy ingredients, this was one of the first recipes I revamped. A cross between a cookie and a bark, it’s a simple, no-fuss recipe that lives in the freezer and comes out whenever you invite it. Always ready, always delicious!”

- 1 ½ cups Rorie’s Grain-Free Flour or extra-fine almond flour

- ½ tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1 ½ cups 50-72% chocolate chips, divided

- In a large bowl, mix together flour, oil, maple syrup, and vanilla until smooth.

- Cut into pieces and enjoy!
can i use canola instead of coconut?
margarine would probably be a more similar sub
I was excited about the simplicity, but disappointed to see the ingredients were items most people don’t have and things that are very expensive.
Agree, disappointing. I don’t own these ingredients or plan to buy them either. But this wasn’t meant as a regular BCP recipe, it’s from Rorie’s new cookbook (being promoted here) which uses all these more healthful subs in cooking and baking.
I’d love a non-healthy version though! This looks delicious.
You can find plenty of recipes online for regular edible cookie dough. This one is meant to be high protein and better for you. Exactly the kind of recipe lots of health concious people want. Thank you BCP for choosing this recipe to feature- now I want the cookbook!
Lol me too! I would love a non healthy version too!!
this looks yum! brilliant to make edible cookie dough with almond flour!! (you can get it at Walmart for under $10 for 2 lb)
i want to try this in mini popsicle molds
Thank you so much for posting this recipe! As someone who is constantly tweaking recipes to make it more suitable for human consumption I’m super excited to see one that tastes good and is actually better for us!
Thank you for this recipe! It’s great to have a healthier easy recipe! Just made and it came out delicious! ( I added natural PB to the chocolate on top)
could it work with spelt flour or is the almond flour needed for texture?
any ideas?
Almond flour can be eaten raw vs spelt four ppl wouldnt eat without baking.
This is amazing! Thank you so much for the delicious and healthy recipes!
I appreciate the healthy recipes! Keep them coming! Thank you:)
Is there any almond flour alternative that would work to make this nut free?
As someone who is off white flour and sugar I’m excited to try this. I need more easy to make recipes. The chocolate chips always trip me up though- either I have to make homemade chocolate (which I have done) or use nuts instead
In the picture it looks baked. Is it?
I just made this and it was so quick, easy, and totally addictive!!
Thank you for posting recipes that are better for you with easy ingredients!
Supposed to be eaten raw?
Easy and addictive! I was worried that the coconut oil would make it taste like coconut but it doesn’t at all. Delicious!
you can use pascha choc chips- no sugar.
Does this recipe get baked at all??
