My name is Francesca and I want to share with you why I love edible sugar cookie dough. It started when my sister, Vittoria, made her 1st edible cookie dough with chocolate chips. I thought it was for sugar cookies. She laughed and said, “It was not for baking. It is an edible sugar cookie dough that we can eat straight out of the bowl.” Of course, I did, and my world was changed forever. Vittoria just made a scrumptious treat anyone can make. She is incredibly creative with her edible cookie dough recipes. Each holiday there is a new twist to her recipe. Our family loves cookies, and making edible sugar cookie dough is our summer fun. I challenged myself to see if I could make a cookie dough that is all chocolate. I tested and tasted until I did. Now Vittoria is stealing a spoonful from the bowl❤️.
Cookie dough eating
This is edible sugar cookie dough, not a regular raw sugar cookie dough. I do not eat regular raw cookie dough or raw batter, for obvious reasons. Uncooked eggs and unheated raw flour may still have harmful bacteria. We did some research on how to make the edible cookie dough and brownie batter safer. First, heat up your flour, so it is above 160°F. We used the microwave. The second one is easy, there are no eggs in this recipe, only butter. Don’t forget to take a look at our regular baked cookie recipes too.
Edible cookie dough recipe ingredients
All the ingredients for my edible sugar cookie dough recipe are probably right in the cupboard.

- Maple syrup
- Vanilla extract

Add the secret ingredient 😉.

Serve and Enjoy!
- Once you have all the ingredients on the counter the first step in the recipe is the most important, heating the flour. In a medium microwave-safe bowl, mix cocoa powder and flour together. Heat in the microwave for 30 seconds or until the mixture reaches 160°F. Set aside to cool. Now the fun begins with the hand mixer and the rest of the ingredients, less the fudge and chocolate chips.
- Place butter and sugars in a large bowl and use the hand mixer until creamed. Next add the milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract.
- Add the flour mixture in two increments to the butter mixture. Mix on low speed until the flour is all incorporated.
- Almost done, here comes the final step. Add the chocolate chips and the fudge. Mix until evenly distributed.
- I use a small cookie scoop to make little bite-sized sugar cookie dough balls. You can store the dough in an airtight container in the fridge for 5 days.
