Easy Edible Oatmeal Cookie Dough
Description
The recipe starts by creaming sugar and softened butter until smooth, creating a creamy base. Heat-treated flour is then combined with ground cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt for flavor and safety against raw flour bacteria. Milk is added to achieve a batter-like consistency before folding in rolled oats, which provide texture and body reminiscent of traditional oatmeal cookies.
The mixture results in a thick, scoopable edible dough with a warm spice profile. It can be enjoyed straight from the bowl as a safe indulgence without baking. The essential step of heat treating flour helps eliminate microorganisms, making this an appropriate recipe for those avoiding raw eggs or baking. The recipe focuses on basic pantry ingredients and gentle mixing to maintain the oats’ chewiness.
