How to Make Edible Cookie Dough Without Brown Sugar
- Heat-The Flour- The way I did this was just to microwave the flour in the microwave for 30-second increments until it reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit. According to the FDA in this article, this may not make it totally safe. Totally your call on your comfort level. As someone who sometimes lives on the edge, I feel okay taking the plunge if I've ensured my flour is heat-treated. Again, proceed at your own risk!
- Combine Butter And Sugar- combine these ingredients first!
3. Add remaining ingredients and combine just until mixed.
4. Enjoy your single-serve edible cookie dough!

FAQ's
Can I freeze this edible cookie dough for one? Absolutely! Freeze just as you would any other cookie dough...in a freezer bag, sealed!
Can I use oil instead of melted butter? I wouldn't recommend that as oil is obviously less creamy than butter. If you're needing something non-dairy, peanut butter might be a better bet (or a non-dairy option such as SmartBalance).
