          I’ve made this nearly 10 times now. It’s awesome! I do not fear raw egg but I like this recipe because it gives you just the right amount of dough to satisfy you without having to make cookies as well! I am out of brown sugar so tonight I tried it with pure cane sugar (not bleached). Plus a little extra, cause I wasn’t sure if brown sugar is denser in flavor or what. It is grainy this way and not as good but still good enough! Thanks for the adorable, easy, and small recipe.

            it’s not so much the raw egg that makes you sick, it’s the flour. if you don’t heat-treat the flour like what it says to do, that’s what’s going to make you sick, not the egg. you can also treat the flower faster by putting it in the microwave for a minute and 30 stirring every 15 seconds

    • Danni says

      Hey sorry for replying so late..I came across your amazing page ..I keep trying to make edible cookie dough and i use Tate and lyle soft brown sugar and it keeps tasting so grainy 🙁 i even tried putting the sugar in a blender and it still tastes grainy. Do you or anyone have any ideas how to stop the grainy texture. Thank you

      Reply

      • Tayla says

        Use unrefined brown sugar, or possibly use a spice grinder. The powdery or soft texture is the only one that will leave the dough smooth, because in this recipe the granules can not dissolve

      Normally when i search up cookie dough recipes they are hard to follow and so/so, but making this recipe was very easy and it was sooo good! The only thing that I wish was different was how many servings it makes, could you make a recipe where it makes as much as boxed cookie dough, that would be perfect!

        You could just multiply the amount by two. That would keep it the same recipe, just bigger.

    Hello! I just want to comment: It’s not only the raw egg, but raw flour that was historically a source of microorganisms. Nowadays, 99% of the eggs we eat are pasteurized, so it’s actually the raw flour in cookie dough that would be the most likely to have something bad in it, because flour isn’t/can’t be pasteurized.

    But you know what, that has never stopped me eating cookie dough!! The risk is the same one we take when eating at a restaurant where someone else is preparing the food. There’s a small chance you’ll get sick, but it’s most likely you won’t and many people never do. Also, store-bought cookie dough has bacteria-killing preservatives in it — not that I’m recommending it over homemade, but it does make it much less likely to have live germs in it!

      Yeah I was about to say, it’s not the egg that’s the problem with eating raw cookie dough, or at least not in recent years.

      Microwave or put the flour in the oven at 375 for a few minutes before using – as long as the temperature reaches about 160 degrees it will kill any microorganisms that might be present in the flour, making it safe to eat.

        That is also what I did! I can’t have chocolate or nuts so I also put in some of my soy nut butter ( made with roasted soy nuts) along with caramel chips and regular oats. Oh my word, this stuff is awesome! ! Better than the edible sugar come recipe I tried early this week! ! This is definitely one recipe to pin! Again, totally awesome! !!

    For the Gluten free people out there I used almond flour and it tasted pretty good. It was a little grainy though. Then you don’t have to worry about the raw flour. Yummy, thanks for sharing!

    First off let me say this turned out delicious. I used almond milk and vegan chocolate and voila dairy free 🙂 I was having one of those days and this was a perfect little sweet for me and much better than a Twinkie or mountain dew or whatever.

    Secondly, to add on to what Mel was saying: the reason eggs were ever dangerous in the first place was because of how dirty the factories were and how unhealthy the chickens were. Local, organic eggs unpasteurized (as long as the farmer takes good care of them) are not only safe raw but a super healthy probiotic food. Raw butter is even better.

    If you used raw butter in this recipe and were a generally healthy person it would outway any bad bacteria in this recipe from the flour. The alcohol content in your vanilla extract helps there too.

FAQs

Why is my edible cookie dough chewy? ›

Milk: In place of eggs, milk helps to make the cookie dough "chewy."

How do I make my cookie dough stick together? ›

First, try adding more liquid to the dough. This can be milk, water, or even just a little bit of extra oil. If that doesn't work, you can try kneading the dough for a few minutes to help it come together. Lastly, if all else fails, you can always add in a few tablespoons of flour to help bind the dough together.

What is the difference between cookie dough and edible cookie dough? ›

Cookie dough is an uncooked blend of cookie ingredients. While cookie dough is normally intended to be baked into individual cookies before eating, edible cookie dough is made to be eaten as is, and usually is made without eggs to make it safer for human consumption.

Why can't you bake edible cookie dough? ›

We do not recommend baking our Bite-Sized Edible Cookie Dough [flavor/products].

How to fix crumbly edible cookie dough? ›

To avoid this, try using as little flour as possible while preparing to roll your dough.

How does Pillsbury make edible cookie dough? ›

Not all cookie dough is safe to eat before baking it. Both the flour and the egg ingredients should be cooked for food safety reasons.

Why is edible cookie dough so good? ›

Another great thing about edible cookie dough is that there is so much room for creativity and fun as you get to create different flavors of edible cookie dough and combine it with ice cream and other sweet treats. It is truly the ultimate sweet treat and it is very safe to eat.

Should edible cookie dough be refrigerated or frozen? ›

The Food Marketing Institute's FoodKeeper recommends storing commercially prepared cookie dough, either unopened or opened, in the refrigerator and use it before the date on the label. For best quality, freeze for two months.

What happens if you don t heat treat flour for edible cookie dough? ›

What many people don't know, however, is that raw eggs are not the only threat in raw cookie dough. Raw flour can contain bacteria like E.coli, which is not something to mess around with! Heat treating the flour beforehand kills off any bacteria without hurting any of the flavor, and it only takes a few minutes to do.

Is it safe to eat raw flour in edible cookie dough? ›

Eating raw flour or batter made with raw flour is not a safe practice, as this raw flour has not been processed to eliminate pathogens, such as salmonella, e. coli and other pathogens.

How long will edible cookie dough last? ›

Store your uneaten edible cookie dough in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week, or in the freezer for up to six months.

How to soften edible cookie dough? ›

Leave it out at room temp for 1-2 hours to soften. If it's too soft, the cookie dough will be soft too.

How do you make cookie dough less rubbery? ›

Creaming adds air, which will allow the cookies to rise, it works as a leavening agent. Add the eggs, one at a time, then add the flour and chocolate. Mix only until the flour is incorporated, then you won't develop as much gluten (which gives bread dough its rubberiness, not what you want in cookies).

Why did my cookies come out chewy? ›

The ingredients you use and how you shape your cookies both play an important role in whether your cookies turn out crispy or chewy. The type of flour and sugar you use, if your cookie dough contains eggs, and whether you use melted or softened butter all factor into the crispy-chewy equation, too.
