Dairy Free Edible Cookie Dough
This is the best dairy free edible cookie dough recipe. It takes little time to make and will satisfy your cookie dough cravings!
This recipe almost has the same flavour that raw eggs and flour give to make that special cookie dough taste.

Does Edible Cookie Dough Taste the same as raw?
This recipe comes pretty close to the real thing but Iβm not gonna lie to you, it does taste slightly different. I havenβt tried a recipe that tastes exactly like real cookie dough. Iβve come to the conclusion that it is the eggs that make that slight difference in taste. So I still eat raw cookie dough when I make cookies because I like to live life on the edge. Take me now salmonella!
Itβs an easy edible cookie dough recipe made using similar ingredients as your favourite soft chocolate chip cookie, without the eggs, raw flour or dairy.
Is there a difference between edible cookie dough and regular?
Yes, a regular cookie dough contains raw eggs and raw flour.
While edible cookie dough recipes contain no eggs and use heat treated flour. Heat treating the flour kills the bacteria. They often also contain milk, whereas regular cookie dough usually does not.

Is edible cookie dough safe to eat?
Of course! Itβs made using ingredients that can be eaten raw. Except for the flour which we will heat treat to make it safe for consumption.
How to Heat Treat the Flour
Heat treating the flour kills pathogens, bacteria and germs that may be in the raw flour. There are two ways to accomplish this.
I donβt always heat treat my flour when I make this recipe because, like I said before, I live life on the edge. Since it is important to make sure the flour is actually safe to eat.

Microwave Method:
Place the flour in a glass bowl and microwave in 30 second intervals until it feels hot. Stir the flour in between each interval. It should reach a temp of 160-165F.
Oven:
Preheat the oven to 325 and spread the flour onto a parchment lined baking tray. Make sure to stir the flour about every 2 minutes. It should take about 10 minutes for it to reach a temperature of 160-165F.
