Edible Cookie Dough

Edible cookie dough has been a steady favorite for a while, and for good reason — all the flavor of raw cookie dough, none of the raw egg or flour safety concerns. Genuinely satisfying eaten straight from the bowl.

Ingredients

• 120g plain flour (heat-treated, see note below)
• 115g unsalted butter, softened
• 100g brown sugar
• 50g granulated sugar
• 2 tbsp milk
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• Pinch of salt
• 100g mini chocolate chips

Directions

1. Heat-treat the flour first: spread on a baking sheet and bake at 90°C/195°F for 5 minutes, or microwave in 30-second bursts, stirring between, until it reaches 74°C/165°F. Let cool completely — this kills any bacteria and makes it safe to eat raw.
2. Cream the butter and both sugars together until light and fluffy.
3. Add milk, vanilla, and salt, mixing until combined.
4. Fold in the cooled heat-treated flour until a soft dough forms.
5. Fold in the chocolate chips.
6. Scoop into small bite-sized balls, or just keep it in a bowl to eat with a spoon.
7. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.

Why heat-treat the flour? Raw flour can carry bacteria the same way raw eggs can — this simple step makes cookie dough genuinely safe to eat without baking it.
