This makes a lot of cookie dough. (Although we've never had a problem finishing it.) If you want to cut the recipe in half, you'll need: 3/4 cup butter, 3/4 cup brown sugar, 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract, 1 2/3 cup graham cracker crumbs, 2 1/2 tablespoons milk, 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 2/3 cup chocolate chips.
Test Kitchen Tip: You can buy packaged graham cracker crumbs at the store, or you can make your own! For this recipe, you'll need 22 graham cracker sheets (or 2 1/2 sleeves). Throw them into a food processor and pulse until you have fine crumbs.
We imagine you’re jumping with excitement that the infamous chocolate cookie now has an edible cookie dough. There are only a few cookie or cake batters that are just as tasty raw as they are cooked. Our version is made with graham crackers instead of flour which we think you’ll really love. If you’re looking for cookies to bake, try Lemon Butter Cookies and Hamantaschen.
Why is it safe to eat raw?
Typically, cookie dough contains raw eggs and flour both of which shouldn’t be eaten raw. Our version eliminates those ingredients so it’s safe to eat and just as good.
Can edible cookie dough be vegan?
The short answer is yes. It’s quite easy to substitute the butter and milk for vegan butter and non- dairy milk. Almond milk, cashew milk, or oat milk are good options.
Can I replace the chocolate chips?
If you prefer white chocolate chips, walnuts, or raisins then go for it! You can add to the dough or replace the chocolate chips as your heart desires.
How long does it stay fresh?
It may be hard to reserve some for later but if you do store the cookie dough in an airtight container and place in the fridge. It should be good for about a week and then after that make a fresh batch! You can also portion the dough into small Ziplock freezer bags and store in the freezer for up to a month.
