Edible Cookie Dough (Safe to eat as dough!)


I’m a big time sucker for cookie dough! I love chocolate chip cookie dough far more than the cooked cookies. Of course, we are always told not to eat cookie dough raw. The reason, of course, because of the raw eggs. That has never stopped me from making and eating cookie dough, though. I’ve learned to swap out the egg for extra liquid and leave out the other ingredients that are only for baking and the taste is nearly identical but I’m not longer worried about getting sick from raw eggs. So, here’s how I made my edible Cookie Dough!

Edible Cookie Dough



Ingredients: 

  • 1 1/3 cup butter, softened
  • 1 1/14 cup sugar
  • 1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3 1/4 cups flour
  • water
  • 1 (12 oz) package semi-sweet chocolate chips

 

Beat together butter and both sugars until creamed and smooth. Add in vanilla and salt. Slowly mix in flour until well blended. Add 1/2 cup to 1 cup of water, depending on desired consistency. Finally, mix in your chocolate chips until just blended. Store in a sealed container in the fridge. The dough tastes even better cooled!

I prefer the dough a bit stickier, so I add closer to a cup of water. My husband on the other hand prefers the dough a bit drier as it is easier to scoop or even grab a pinch right from the dish. You can add less water to make it a drier dough. The drier dough also works better for adding the dough to other goodies like ice cream.
