A delicious Edible Cookie Dough Recipe that is safe to eat and customizable for everyone!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar (light & dark)
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons milk (any kind)
  • 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1/4 cup creamy peanut butter (optional)
  • 1/4 cup sprinkles (optional)
  • 1/4 cup broken Oreo pieces (optional)

Instructions

  1. Start by heat-treating the flour to ensure safety. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread the all-purpose flour evenly on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for about 5-7 minutes. Keep an eye on it, aiming for the internal temperature to exceed 165°F (74°C). Once done, let it cool completely, then sift it to remove any clumps, ensuring a smooth texture for your edible cookie dough.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened unsalted butter, light and dark brown sugar, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and salt. Use an electric mixer on medium speed for about 2-3 minutes, or until the mixture reaches a light and creamy consistency. The sugars should be well incorporated, and the butter should look fluffy. This step enriches the flavor and provides a lovely base for your edible cookie dough.
  3. Gradually add the cooled, sifted flour to the creamed mixture, stirring gently until everything is completely combined. If your dough feels too stiff or crumbly at this stage, don’t worry! Slowly add milk, one tablespoon at a time, continuing to mix until you’ve achieved your desired dough consistency. This step is crucial as it ensures your edible cookie dough has that perfect, scoopable texture.
  4. Now it’s time to add your favorite mix-ins! Fold in the semisweet chocolate chips, ensuring they’re evenly distributed throughout the dough. If you wish to get creative, toss in optional ingredients like creamy peanut butter, colorful sprinkles, or crunchy broken Oreos. Mixing in your chosen goodies not only enhances the flavor but also makes your edible cookie dough a personal treat pleasure.
  5. The moment you've been waiting for—enjoy your delicious edible cookie dough immediately after making it! Scoop out generous spoonfuls and indulge in the rich flavor. If you wish to save some for later, transfer the remaining dough into an airtight container and store it in the refrigerator for up to one week. Just remember, if you’re enjoying leftovers, let it sit at room temperature for about 15-20 minutes before digging in for the best texture experience!

Notes

  • Always ensure the flour reaches at least 165°F (74°C) to eliminate harmful bacteria—this step is crucial for food safety.
  • Allow the heat-treated flour to cool fully before mixing; this prevents melting the butter and ensures a nice texture.
  • If your dough feels too crumbly, add more milk gradually until it reaches that perfect scoopable texture.
  • Feel free to get creative with your mix-ins! Whether it's creamy peanut butter or colorful sprinkles, make the dough your own.
  • This edible cookie dough recipe is best enjoyed fresh. However, it can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
