My guilt-free eggless chocolate chip cookie dough for one is the perfect portion-controlled treat. Ready in only 5 minutes!

This edible cookie dough is really tasty. I spent quite a few hours adjusting the ingredient quantities and re-testing. It really wasn’t as fun as it sounds. It turned into an exercise of self-restraint more than anything.

My thoughts on homemade chocolate chip cookies have always been this: the raw batter is the best part. Baking them = overrated. I grew up eating raw cookie dough, and I never got salmonella. I now hear that uncooked flour is something to watch out for as well. Call me old-fashioned, but really?!

I used raw egg in my marzipan recipe like you should. No one I know has gotten sick from raw flour, but consider that my disclaimer. 😛 With that said, I don’t think this teeny tiny batch of edible chocolate chip cookie dough is missing anything by not including the egg. One egg would be too much, and dividing an egg just ain’t practical.

The irony here is that there’s this treat that’s making the rounds on the internet again called snow ice cream. Like yeah, a dessert as pure as freshly driven snow. Everyone’s excited about it. I’m like wait a sec… something about that just screams unsanitary to me.

I keep thinking of acid rain. And God only knows what else makes its way in there. My top tip: don’t eat yellow snow. Oh and stay tuned for a snow ice cream recipe coming to this blog soon. Just kidding. 🙂

Aaaaanyway, back to this edible eggless cookie dough recipe. This really is portioned for one, so you really don’t need to feel guilty about calories assuming you only make one batch (recipe easily doubles or triples or quadruples by the way). 😉

I don’t know about you, but when I bake cookies I consume WAY more than this little portion of cookie dough, and that’s before I even bake the cookies. With this recipe, you know what you’re getting: a 400 calorie treat.

There’s a LOT of chatter in the comments, so you may want to scroll down and check them out if you’re wondering about something to do with the recipe or you want to see how excited/annoyed/passionate people can get over edible cookie dough.

Spoiler alert: this is a hot topic.

Will you make this edible cookie dough?

You’ll like this recipe if:

You like very sweet cookie dough
You prefer your cookie dough on the softer/creamier/smooth side. If you prefer a more “doughy” texture, you could try adding more flour or reducing the amount of milk
