WEEKLY CANDY: Cookie Dough Bites
The Web site for the award-winning alternative weekly, the Philadelphia City Paper.
WEEKLY CANDY: Cookie Dough Bites
IN QUESTION: Created by Taste of Nature, Inc. in 1997, these bite-size candies are little balls of actual cookie dough — flour, chocolate and vanilla, but no eggs — then covered in creamy milk chocolate. They come in a variety of flavors, ranging from basic chocolate chip more outlandish red velvet cupcake and cinnamon bun.
AVAILABLE AT: Originally only available at movie theaters, where I discovered them years ago, Cookie Dough Bites are a surprisingly elusive candy. I do know, however, that they can now be found at a number of spots around town, including the Temple University bookstore on 13th and Montgomery, the Dollar Tree on Columbus near Ikea and good old Kmart.
HOW MANY DO WE TYPICALLY EAT IN ONE SITTING: According to the nutritional info there are two servings in each container, but it never feels like it. I tend to devour them and then become angry when I realize they're all gone.
FINER POINTS: These doughy babies were once featured on Food Network's Unwrapped, and you can check out a short clip is on the Cookie Dough Bites website.
