Where Can I Get it? | How Can I Make It?
What is edible raw cookie dough?
This is not the same kind of dough you used to lick out of your parents’ mixing bowl when you were a kid. In other words, “this ain’t yo mama’s cookie dough.” Instead, it is a safe-to-eat version specifically made to be eaten raw while avoiding the dangers of raw eggs and flour. Some places use pasteurized eggs, while others eliminate eggs and dairy completely making them vegan.
Some places even serve cookie dough sandwiches: raw batter sandwiched between two baked cookies…forming a cookie inception, if you will.
