Looking for a sweet treat for you lovies on Valentine's day?? This is not only sweet, it is much healthier than anything you can buy at a store.

No it's certainly not low in calories or fat, but it is refined sugar free and gluten free!

A little indulgence for Valentine's Day is needed, don't you think?

I've made them tree times now until I finally got the texture and taste just right. I adapted my Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Chocolate Cake recipe for the idea of the cookie dough. It is JUST perfect now, JUST perfect!

They don't have to be perfect looking and you can even roll them smaller if you want to get more than 12, but this is what I went with, just big enough!

Notes on Chocolate Chips:

You can use whatever chocolate chips you like. For allergy friendly, Enjoy Life is Nut, Soy & Dairy Free. I found sugar free chocolate chips by the brand Lily's sweetened with stevia at Whole Foods. A reader mentioned that Grain Sweetened chocolate chips have been found at the Atkin's store online.
Nutrition Info has been updated 11/2013 using sugar free chocolate chips.
To make these Completely Sugar-Free sub the honey with Swerve or Truvia.
