This edible cookie dough recipe is everything you love about classic cookie dough, minus the baking and the worry. If you’ve ever wondered how to make edible cookie dough that’s safe and snackable, this one’s for you.

Edible cookie dough is perfect for sharing, scooping, or sneaking straight from the bowl. Whip up a batch, stash it in the fridge, and keep the dough all week long. 

Directions
  1. Step 1

    Gather all your ingredients.

  2. Step 2

    First, heat treat the flour to ensure it is safe to eat. Do not skip this step. Untreated flour can contain contaminants and is not safe to eat. Place the flour in a microwave safe bowl and microwave on high in 30-second intervals, stirring in between. Use an instant-read thermometer to ensure that the flour reaches 165°F throughout.

  3. Step 3

    In a stand mixer or using a hand mixer, beat together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.

  4. Step 4

    Add the vanilla, cream, and salt. Mix to combine. Then add the heat treated flour and mix to incorporate.

  5. Step 5

    Fold in the chocolate chips.

  6. Step 6

    Serve and enjoy!

  7. 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.
