Made with the basic chocolate chip cookie dough ingredients, this recipe is quick and easy so a sweet snack is never far away.

Ingredients for Dough

• 2 cups of all purpose flour
• 1 1/4 cup of light brown sugar
• 1 cup salted butter, softened at room temperature, not melted
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons of milk
• 1/2 teaspoon salt

• 1 cup of mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • Use 3/4 cup to 1 cup depending on how dense in chocolate chips you want the dough.

Directions for Homemade Edible Cookie Dough

Step 1: Bake or heat up flour to kill pathogens and bacteria. Place the 2 cups of flour on a rimmed baking sheet and bake in an oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 10 minutes. Make sure the flour reaches 165 degrees then remove it from the oven, and let it cool completely. If you don’t have an oven you can microwave the flour on a plate at 30-second intervals until the flour reaches 165 degrees F.
