Ingredients
Scale
Base Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour (heat-treated)
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, softened
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1–2 teaspoons milk or dairy alternative
- Pinch of salt
Mix-ins
- 2 tablespoons mini chocolate chips
Instructions
- Heat-treat the flour: Spread the all-purpose flour on a baking sheet and bake at 350°F (175°C) for about 5 minutes to kill any potential bacteria. Let the flour cool completely before using it.
- Cream the butter and sugar: In a small bowl, mix the softened butter and brown sugar with a fork or spoon until smooth and creamy, resembling traditional cookie dough texture.
- Add vanilla and milk: Stir in the vanilla extract and gradually add milk one teaspoon at a time until the dough reaches a soft but not runny consistency.
- Incorporate the flour and salt: Slowly fold in the heat-treated flour one tablespoon at a time along with a pinch of salt, mixing well to combine all ingredients evenly into a safe dough base.
- Fold in chocolate chips: Gently stir in the mini chocolate chips so that each bite has melty pockets of sweetness.
- Enjoy immediately: Scoop yourself a generous spoonful and savor your edible cookie dough for one. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3–4 days.
Notes
- Use room temperature butter for smooth blending with sugar.
- Always heat-treat flour to ensure safety from bacteria.
- Add milk slowly to prevent the dough from becoming too runny.
- Store dough chilled to maintain freshness and texture.
- Customize with various mix-ins like nuts, dried fruit, or different chocolates.
