Ingredients 

Let me show you how to make the most amazing edible cookie dough! These are the ingredients with perfect quantity combination we’ll be using:

Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp (28 g) unsalted butter, softened

  • 1/2-1 tbsp (7-15 ml) milk

  • 2 tbsp (28 g) light brown sugar

  • 1 tbsp (12 g) granulated white sugar

  • 2 tbsp mini chocolate chips

  • 6 tbsp (48 g) all-purpose flour 

  • 1/2 tsp vanilla

  • pinch salt

Now let’s discuss about its preparation steps

Step 1: Heat-Treat the Flour

Spread the flour on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 5 minutes. Let it cool completely. This is key for making it safe to eat.

A key mistake is skipping the heat-treating of the flour—this makes it safe to eat raw, so don’t skip this crucial step. Another common issue is using cold butter; softened butter creams best with the sugars. 

Overmixing after adding the flour can lead to a tough dough, so mix just until combined. Start with a smaller amount of milk and add more only if needed to avoid a sticky dough. Accurate measurements are essential for consistent results, so use measuring spoons and cups.

Edible cookie dough is delicious on its own, but it pairs well with several treats. A cold glass of milk (dairy or non-dairy) is a classic pairing. For a richer treat, add a scoop of vanilla ice cream. 

Fresh berries offer a refreshing contrast and warm drinks like hot chocolate or coffee complement the dough nicely. For variety, try crumbling it over yogurt or blending it into a milkshake. 

Sprinkles or different chocolate chips add a festive touch, and a sprinkle of sea salt balances the sweetness.

FAQs

1. How long does edible cookie dough last?

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week. Best enjoyed fresh; chilling makes it firmer. Don’t freeze.

Yes, multiply all ingredients by the desired number of servings. Heat-treat a larger quantity of flour accordingly.

3. What if I don’t have heat-treated flour?

Bake regular flour at 350°F (175°C) for 5 minutes, then cool completely. Do not skip this step.

4. Can I use different chocolate chips?

Yes! Use any type of chocolate chips or add other mix-ins like sprinkles or nuts.

5. My dough is too dry/crumbly. What can I do?

Add milk, ½ tablespoon at a time, until desired consistency. If it’s too sticky, add a little more heat-treated flour.
