Cashew butter, delivers a smooth creaminess and a healthy dose of good fats, keeping you energized without overpowering the delicious birthday cake taste. This is my favorite cashew butter.

Did you know that many common sprinkles contain added food dye, artificial flavor, and artificial color? Processed foods often contain things like soy lecithin, palm oil, or hydrogenated palm kernel oil. These things are not ideal, nor are they anything I want for myself or my family. As a certified healthy coach and nutrition coach I prefer to keep the ingredients that I use on the natural and organic side of things when possible. These rainbow sprinkles are a much cleaner option and can be found online here: rainbow sprinkles.

Almond extract is the secret ingredient that takes these homemade cookie dough bites from average to amazing. Don’t skip this ingredient. You can find it online here: almond extract.

For an added protein boost, feel free to add a scoop of your favorite clean protein powder to the mix. Look for a powder with minimal ingredients to keep these bites healthy. This is the one that I like: Truvani Protein

How to Make Cookie Dough Bites

First, combine the cashew butter and the almond flour in a large bowl.

Next, add the honey, almond extract, and vanilla extract to the bowl.

Then add the colorful sprinkles and dark chocolate chips to the mixture.

Stir the cookie dough bite mixture together thoroughly. Then place the mix in the fridge to chill for 30 minutes, or 10 minutes in the freezer if you are in a hurry. The balls are much easier to roll when cold.

Roll Birthday Cake Cookie Dough Bites

Remove the chilled cookie dough mix from the fridge and use a small cookie scoop to scoop even amounts of mixture for balls.

The cookie scoop ensures equal portions for your birthday cake energy balls. First, scoop the balls onto a sheet or parchment paper or wax paper.

Then, with clean hands, roll them into smooth balls, about 1-2″ in size.
