Ingredient notes
This cookie dough is made up of the usual cookie dough ingredients (minus the eggs). Below are notes about some of the ingredients. See recipe for full list of ingredients.
- Butter: I use unsalted, but salted butter can also be used. Make sure your butter is softened to room temperature.
- Powdered Sugar: I like to use both powdered sugar and granulated. You can use all granulated sugar if you prefer.
- Milk: To make it creamier.
- Vanilla Extract: For its sweet flavor.
- Flour: Heat treated. See below
- Salt: Just a pinch. To bring out the flavor and balance out a little of the sweetness. If using salted butter, you don’t need to add additional salt.
- Mini chocolate chips (optional)
- Sprinkles (optional)
HEAT TREATING THE FLOUR
To make sure the cookie dough 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 optional but recommended.
Spread the flour on a large parchment paper lined baking sheet and put it in a 350 F oven for six minutes. Allow it to cool then use the flour according to the recipe instructions.
HOW TO ENJOY THIS COOKIE DOUGH
- Straight From the Mixing Bowl: Grab your spoons and dig in!
- In Bowls: Use an ice cream scooper or spoon to serve it in little bowls and enjoy it with a spoon.
- Scooped into Balls: It’s fun to eat by the spoonful but maybe even more fun to eat cookie dough balls! Use a small cookie scoop or a large ice cream scoop to form balls. You can also form them with your hands. Serve them on a dish or in muffin or truffle liners.
There’s really nothing not to love about this Edible Sugar Cookie Dough. This easy recipe makes a rich, buttery, gooey treat. Perfect to make for yourself or to make and share with others!
