About Edible Cookie Dough
Edible cookie dough is a treat that is made to be eaten raw. You get all the great flavor and fun of tasting cookie dough without the risk of consuming raw eggs. You do, however, need to briefly bake the flour because of the possibility that they were grown in fields that may have been exposed to harmful bacteria. Once the flour is baked, you can whip up your cookie dough and eat it or add it to ice cream and desserts. It’s a safe and delicious way to enjoy the sweet taste of cookie dough with no need for baking.
The two cups of cookie dough should be enough for about 4 quarts of ice cream, depending on how chunky you like it.
Recipe Tips
To add the cookie dough to homemade ice cream, roll it out about 1/4 to 1/2-inch thickness between sheets of plastic wrap. Freeze until your ice cream is churning and nearly done. Cut the cookie dough into small squares and then add them to the churning ice cream shortly before it’s done. Pack the ice cream into a container and freeze.
