Hi Bold Bakers!
Edible Cookie Dough is a trend that has been around a while but we like to do things well, bolder here on Bigger Bolder Baking. That’s why my Crazy Edible Cookie Dough is a new food trend that is here to stay. I do not know a single person who doesn’t taste that unbaked cookie dough when making cookies. I too have struggled with that voice in my head that wants to back off baking the cookies and just eat the dough! After a few tweaks I came up with this insane recipe for Crazy Edible Cookie Dough! This is one basic Edible Cookie Dough you can flavor with all of your favorite cookie mix-ins. In other words, dreams really do come true!
First of all, making my base Crazy Edible Cookie Dough is no fuss at all and you likely have everything in your kitchen right now. Just like regular cookie dough, I mix up butter and combine brown sugar then add flour, milk, salt and vanilla. So how is this an edible cookie dough? For one, it’s eggless. Also, you can heat treat the flour in the oven or microwave. Then fun starts here, and it is endless. I love taking this Crazy Edible Cookie Dough base and adding all kinds of glorious sweets including a few of my flavor suggestions below.
Brownie Batter Edible Cookie Dough
This first flavor is for all you chocolate lovers out there. It is made by adding cocoa powder and bits of crumbed brownie, transforming this simple edible dough into an Edible Brownie Batter masterpiece
Fluffer Nutter Edible Cookie Dough
So what is a fluffer nutter? It’s usually a sandwich served on white bread made with marshmallow creme and peanut butter. I took those same flavors and made a fluffy, peanut buttery Fluffer Nutter Edible Cookie Dough.
Monster Cookie Edible Cookie Dough
Last but certainly not least, this edible cookie dough has everything but the kitchen sink. Go really crazy and add M&Ms, peanut butter, chocolate chips and whatever else you want to make this Monster Cookie Edible Cookie Dough.
The best part about my Crazy Edible Cookie Dough is the flavor possibilities are truly endless. I hope you give my flavors a go and let me know your crazy creation ideas in the comments.

Hi. I am planning on making this recipe. I just would like to ask if I can substitute almond or coconut flour to all purpose flour? Thank you! You make baking seem so easy!
Hi Gemma! I was just wondering, can we use dairy-free milk with this recipe?
Really? Because in both the video and the written recipe, there is milk. I just wanted to know if we could substitute regular milk with dairy-free milk like almond milk or coconut milk.
Hi gemma, awesome recipe. Does the Butter need to be softened or melted? Also, can this cookie dough also be used to bake cookies. A last question. Does the dough need refrigeration or can it be kept at room temp for a few days?
Hi there, how long will last this in the fridge? Thanks 🙂
Oh, Gemma. You’ve done it again. Perfection. Absolute perfection. ????
Hi Gemma I am loving the look of the edible cookie dough recipe and definitely want to try it. How long would the cookie dough keep for (if it doesn’t get eaten first!!) and how would you recommend to store it? Many thanks Xxxx
Thanks Gemma for introducing us to such an amazing and creative recipe. I used mix of wheat, oats, quinoa flour and made it vegan. It turned out really amazing.
I have never made your edible cookie dough but such a big fan!
Hi can i treat the flour in a pan using the stove? Just to heat it up and toast a lil bit?
