Storage

You can store this egg free edible cookie dough to eat in the fridge for 3-4 days. Any amount of time after that it might start tasting like ‘fridge’ (IYKYK.)

It can also be stored in the freezer for about a month. I use a regular freezer zip top bag. Be sure to either flatten and cut into cubes or scoop into balls before freezing. I use a small cookie scoop. You do not want to be fighting with a large chunk of cookie dough when you desire it most.

Cookie Dough Pregnancy Craving Bonus

This is a safe cookie dough alternative for all those pregnant ladies that crave chocolate chip cookie dough! I remember being pregnant and wanting the dough sooo badly that I would severely underbake the cookies just so I could have that hint of dough flavor — spoiler alert, it rarely curved the craving but at least the cookies were delicious haha!

Use a mix of chocolate chips

This recipe for egg free edible cookie dough to eat uses both mini chocolate chips and regular standard sized chocolate chips. If you only have one on hand that is ok, but I think the additional sizes really give it a more dimensional texture and taste.

Do I really have to heat treat flour?

Harmful bacteria grows on raw flour so consuming it without cooking it off can mean detrimental health consequences. I would not chance not heating it first. I like to go for 165F with my instant read thermometer, but most internet polls will say 160 is absolutely fine. I tend to err on the side of caution when it comes to food safety.

You can order an instant read food thermometer on amazon for 15 bucks or less usually. I always link all the kitchen tools and equipment I use below. I really truly use the instant read food thermometer on a daily basis and it is a worthwhile ‘investment.’

How to make the best egg free edible cookie dough to eat *munch munch*

First you want to make sure your flour is safe to consume. To do this, you will need to heat treat the flour. Begin by heat treating the flour in a microwave safe dish, cooking for 20-30 seconds until an instant read food thermometer measure at least 165F. Do not skip this step. Stir the flour to fluff it up a bit and set aside.

In a separate medium mixing bowl, combine the butter and sugars.

Use a hand mixer or blend well with your own strength!

Once it is light and airy, add in the cream, and vanilla extract. Stir to combine.

Next, add the heat treated flour and sprinkle the sea salt on top. Mix again until fully combined.

Lastly, add in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed. Enjoy right away or refrigerate and eat cold.
