Let’s be honest, when you make cookies, you love to sneak as taste or two or twelve to “test” the batter out. Problem is, it isn’t safe to consume raw egg. That is why I am obsessed with this easy to make Edible Cookie Dough Recipe! Even better…it takes less than 15 minutes to make!
How to make Raw Cookie Dough safe to eat
There are a few things your need to do to make your raw cookie dough safe to eat. First and foremost, you need a recipe without eggs. Eating raw eggs can bring on the dreaded salmonella and nobody has time for that! BUT, what a lot of raw cookie dough recipes forget is that the flour can also cause issues. Uncooked flour can cause E. coli, which can also make your sick.
How to make flour safe in raw cookie dough
Not to worry, there is an easy fix to this issue. You just need to toast the flour first. Sure this adds a few minutes on to the recipe, but better safe than sorry.
- Preheat oven to 350.
- Place a silicon baking mat or parchment paper on a baking pan.
- Spread the flour on the pan and bake for 10 minutes.
- Let cool.
Cookie dough food trucks, cafes and shops are popping up all over the world! Did you know that you can even buy edible cookie dough at the grocery now too?
You can even get it right here on Amazon, but why spend $7.00 on 4 oz. when you can make an entire batch to enjoy right here, right now!
I don’t know exactly what it is about the raw dough that I love so much. I almost like it better than the baked cookies them self! That’s why this edible dough is so great.
Honestly, you probably have all of the ingredients in your pantry! So if you are ready to enjoy your very own, homemade Edible Cookie Dough, I have you covered.
Last week, my sister, Julie and I went and taught a kids cooking class at a local overnight camp. We have always been huge campers so it was fun to go wander around our old stomping grounds and play in the kitchen.
Not to mention, Julie and I love to create together. She is an amazing baker and I am proud to say that I totally am stealing this recipe creation from her! However, I am sure she is more than happy to share with my Princess Pinky Girl audience!
The kids had such a blast making this recipe! We had kids ranging in age from 7-15 and they all could make it, with very little help! The recipe is super easy and quick. You can literally make up a batch in less than 15 minutes.
You can also leave it in your refrigerator for a few days – if it will even last a few days. Just be sure to keep it covered (and hidden from your family). Now you can have a quick raw cookie dough fix whenever you like!

My cookie dough always seems to get hard and dried out when I put it in the fridge. Any idea why?
Try a little splash of milk!!
love these recipes will make these for spring break
thanks
MAY I ask why the baking soda. I have made a similar recipe but it uses no egg and no baking soda. Great tasting.
So basically, your edible cookie dough recipe is a knock-off of the Original Toll House recipe and in place of the standard 2 eggs, you use 1/3 cup of milk. I also see you decreased the baking soda to 1/4 tsp. Quick question, since this is edible dough and if you don’t plan on baking any cookies, couldn’t you eliminate the baking soda altogether? I honestly never thought of using the Toll House recipe and making milk the substitution for eggs. Great idea!
