Edible Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough
Dreams do come true: edible chocolate chip cookie dough!! This recipe is only six ingredients and SO fun to eat!!

Lemme see that cookie dough lemme lemme see that cookie dough. That’s how it goes, right?! In my mind, anyway 🙂 Because cookie dough is where it’s AT people. I may have a cookie dough problem. It’s fine, I can admit it. The first step is acknowledgement.

Edible Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough

If I make cookies, or buy a roll of cookie dough at the store, basically half the batter ends up in my belly before the oven is preheated. Yes, I’ve heard about salmonella. Yes, I know it’s reckless behavior. But but but I love it? And if eating raw cookie dough is wrong, then I don’t want to be right.

Well, friends. Problemo. Solvedo!!!

Little bit of this, little bit of that and BAM. I birthed the easiest, happiest, guilt and salmonella free cookie dough in allll the land. Well, assuming you don’t touch raw chicken and/or egg immediately before consuming/making this dough, all the aforementioned descriptors are accurate. Wash them hands and you’re home free, my party people!!

Want to be an over achiever? Try these perfectly chewy chocolate chip cookies. Or, these chia and flax almond butter cookies are fun!

Grab your spoon and milk and sweatpants and Netflix and let’s make some Edible Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough!!

In your food processor (omg what would I do without my food processor!! basically I’d be forced to make baked desserts and they’d be a huge disaster. woof!)

Let’s try this again… In your food processor place your cashew butter, agave nectar, and vanilla. Process until smooth and combined.

Add the almond flour and sea salt. Process again until combined.

Edible Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough

Transfer to a bowl and fold in your dark chocolate chips. I then jam alllll that happiness in a mason jar and keep it in my fridge for scoops on repeat. Or sharing, whatevs 🙂

    This looks noms! I noticed you mentioned hemp hearts in the directions but not in the ingredients. What measurement of hemp hearts does the recipe call for?

      I updated the recipe and it no longer includes hemp hearts. I’ll fix it in the directions! Thank you so much for pointing that out!!

      Hi!! Maybe try some sunbutter and oat flour if you’re ok using it. It’ll change the taste a bit but I’m sure still delish!! xo

          I’ve never tried actually baking it, so I don’t know for sure! Let me know if you try! It makes 4 – 6 servings if you’re eating it raw 🙂

    Yum! Would almond butter or peanut butter work instead?

    Reply

      Hi Kate,

      Yes! Either would work, but they’ll have a bit of a nuttier flavor than the cashew butter. It’ll be really delicious either way 🙂

      Hope you love it!! xo
