Edible Cookie Dough Recipe
Description
The recipe starts by creaming white and brown sugars with softened unsalted butter until well combined. Milk or water and vanilla extract are added to provide moisture and flavor. Salt and raw flour—which must be pasteurized by microwaving to eliminate bacteria—are mixed in to form a dough base. Finally, chocolate chips or other mix-ins are folded throughout.
This edible dough mimics classic cookie dough’s taste and texture but is safe to consume raw due to the flour pasteurization and lack of raw eggs. The texture is creamy and soft enough to scoop or eat directly, with sweetness from the sugars and bursts of chocolate flavor from the chips.
It’s a convenient treat when baked cookies aren’t desired, and it can be customized with various mix-ins for variety. Proper preparation of the flour ensures food safety without compromising flavor or texture.
