Low Calorie Edible Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough

If you love cookie dough, like to eat it raw, and are looking to cut out a few calories while still enjoying your favorite treat this recipe is for you! After searching high and low for this recipe I ended up making it myself. For only half the calories of regular recipes this is a tasty while still diet-friendly treat. Yum! I like to divide the whole recipe into portions, like 8 portions for 340 calories each. Or make only 1/4 batch and divide it in two which keeps me from eating the whole batch!
