So you’ve heard people say you shouldn’t eat raw cookie dough. But many of us have done it…and survived. BUT, many of us would rather our kids not eat it, am I right? Well since today is National Chocolate Chip Day, we thought we’d celebrate by passing along this SAFE to eat cookie dough recipe. And yes, it tastes like the real deal! So celebrate this important National holiday! (safely)
Ingredients
- 1 stick softened unsalted butter
- 6 Tablespoons light brown sugar
- 6 Tablespoons white sugar
- 1 cup plus 2 Tbsp flour*
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp cinnamon
- ¼ tsp salt
- 2 tsp pure vanilla
- 2 Tbsp whole milk
- 2/3 cup chocolate chips (I used mini ones)
Instructions
- Cream butter, sugars and vanilla until smooth
- Add flour, baking soda, salt and cinnamon and mix
- Add milk and mix until dough is firm and smooth
- Fold in chocolate chips with a wooden spoon (or any other chip or nut, cranberry, raisin, etc.)
- Cover and refrigerate
*If you’re worried about raw flour, do this: Spread two cups of flour on a baking sheet and bake for about 5 minutes at 350° F. Let cool completely. Then use the flour. You are killing off any bacteria.
