The other day I was at the grocery store. I had reached the “dessert” part of my shopping list, and my stomach informed me that making cookies was a good idea. So I headed over to the cookie dough section.
As I reached for a tube of cookie dough, this caught my eye:
The package emphasized that this was not for baking. It’s formulated specifically for eating straight out of the container.
It was a little pricey ($7), but it seemed like it would last a while, so I bought it.
So far I’ve been very pleased with the decision. It’s really delicious cookie dough, and a few spoonfuls makes for a perfect after-lunch dessert. It could use a few more chocolate chips, but that’s a minor, easily fixable problem.
Have you ever tried anything like this? Do you like raw cookie dough?
I’m not a fan of raw cookie dough, but I do have a recipe for chocolate chip cookies that does not use egg, so would be ok to eat raw. And it would cost you way less than $7. And, if you chose, you could also bake it into, y’know, cookies.
That sounds delicious! I’ve made it before with the egg substitute you can buy at the grocery store, which works fine.
$7 for such a little container is a little pricey, even for such a delicious treat. I’ve made the eggless dough before (and currently may have some
I whipped up this morning sitting in my fridge for snacking later today), and used this recipe, with a few minor modifications: https://www.centercutcook.com/edible-egg-less-chocolate-chip-cookie-dough/
That one is not meant to be baked, and tastes pretty close to the cookie dough I make for my dark chocolate chip cookies.
Very nice, Katy! I’m going to have to try that recipe.
Ewww …
Irony: that after realizing that food is safer and tastier when cooked, when re-embrace as high-priced items raw cookie dough and raw seafood.
