What is it about brownie batter and cookie dough that is so good?!

I know that it’s not the safest thing to do, so this edible brownie dough makes it possible to enjoy brownie batter guilt free!
HOW TO MAKE EDIBLE BROWNIE BATTER
Making brownie batter is easier than making brownies or cookies because you don’t need to bake the batter. You follow similar steps to making brownies, but leave out the eggs and will need to heat treat the flour.
HEAT TREATING THE FLOUR
To make sure the batter is edible, it’s as simple as omitting eggs from the recipe and heat treating the flour. Heat treating the flour is a precautionary step to kill off any existing bacteria. This step is option but recommended.
All you need to do is spread the flour on a large parchment paper lined baking sheet and put it in a 350 F oven for five minutes. Allow it to cool then use the flour according to the recipe instructions.
Once the flour has been treated and cooled, whisk it with the other dry ingredients.
Next, you’ll cream together the butter and sugars. I use a mixer for that but switch over to a wooden spoon when I then add my dry ingredients to the butter/sugar.
Add the dry ingredients in batches followed by the milk and vanilla. Lastly, toss in the chocolate chips (or whatever type of chips/chocolate you prefer). That’s it! Into some dishes or small glasses or directly onto spoons it goes!
TOPPINGS FOR EDIBLE BROWNIE BATTER
This is an amazing dessert as is, but it’s always fun to get creative with toppings. For chocolate chips that get stirred into the batter at the end, you have lots of options! Feel free to use dark or semisweet chocolate.
For the shape of the chocolate, use:
- regular
- mini
- chocolate chunks
- chopped up chocolate
Some other yummy things to stir into the batter are:
- M&Ms
- butterscotch chips
- peanut butter chips
- chopped up nuts
Top it all off with:
- hot fudge or caramel sauce
- roasted strawberry sauce
- chopped nuts
- sprinkles
