    Everyone loves eating raw cookie dough. Learn how to make edible cookie dough that’s safe to eat and tastes delicious!

    Wondering how to make cookie dough you can eat by the spoonful? If you’re like twelve year old me the answer is – Make cookies. Eat dough.

    However if you’re a responsible person trying not to contract a food-borne illness, then let’s talk about how to make cookie dough you can eat without getting sick.

    How to make edible cookie dough that’s safe to eat

    No raw eggs

    To make cookie dough that’s safe to eat, you’ll want to be sure it doesn’t call for eggs. Raw eggs run the risk of salmonella.

    You could also purchase pasteurized eggs to keep yourself safe. However, none of my edible cookie dough recipes call for eggs, so you won’t need to look for anything special at the store!

    No raw flour

    The consumption of raw flour has also been known to spread foodborne illness.

    If you really want to be safe, spread your flour on a rimmed baking sheet and bake at 350ºF for about 5 minutes to kill any bacteria.

    One of my favorite things to do is throw a bunch of cookie dough ingredients together and see how it tastes. That has led to several edible cookie dough recipes that I’m happy to share with you! I recommend trying:
