Edible sugar cookie dough is a fun and easy dessert to make for Christmas! This eggless recipe uses heat-treated flour so it is safe to eat for everyone!
6Tablespoons(85 g) unsalted butter, room temperature
⅓cup (66 g) granulated sugar
1-2Tablespoonsmilk, (I used low-fat, but skim and whole work just as well)
1teaspoonpure vanilla extract
3Tablespoonssprinkles
Instructions
First, heat treat the flour. Place the flour in a glass bowl and microwave for 90 seconds, stopping to whisk halfway through. Alternatively, preheat oven to 350℉. Spread flour on a 9x13 baking sheet and bake for about 5 minutes. Let cool completely.
Whisk the flour and salt in a bowl. Set aside.
In a large bowl of a stand mixer (or using a hand mixer), mix the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the milk and vanilla and mix until combined. Slowly add in flour mixture and stir until smooth. Fold in the sprinkles or other favorite mix-ins.
Chill in the refrigerator for 20 minutes. Serve in a bowl or jar.
Notes
Baking the flour in the oven kills off any harmful bacteria.If the consistency is too thick, add another tablespoon of milk.Cookie dough should be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
