Edible Dough Recipe

Edible cookie dough offers a fun and safe way to enjoy a beloved treat without baking. To guarantee a tasty experience, pay attention to nutritional considerations. While it can be high in calories and sugar, you can find options with reduced sugar and calories. One key aspect is to ensure you use heat-treated flour to eliminate any safety risks. Customize your cookie dough with mix-ins like chocolate chips or nuts, and experiment with flavors using different extracts and spices. If you prefer convenience, many commercial options cater to various dietary needs, including gluten-free and protein-infused varieties. Always store your dough properly to maintain safety. With these tips, you can enjoy a delicious and innovative treat that fits your preferences.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour heat-treated
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 1/2 cup light brown sugar packed
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2-4 tablespoons milk as needed
  • 1 cup chocolate chips or desired mix-ins

Instructions
 

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened unsalted butter, light brown sugar, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and salt. Using an electric mixer, beat the mixture on medium speed until it becomes light and fluffy, which should take about 2-3 minutes.
  • Gradually add the heat-treated all-purpose flour to the butter mixture while mixing on low speed. Continue to mix until the flour is fully incorporated and the dough starts to come together.
  • If the dough appears too dry, add milk one tablespoon at a time until you reach your desired consistency. The dough should be soft and pliable but not overly sticky.
  • Gently fold in the chocolate chips (or your choice of mix-ins) using a spatula or wooden spoon until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  • Once combined, taste the dough and adjust any flavors if necessary. You can add more vanilla or a pinch of salt to enhance the flavor. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container.
