Low Sugar Edible Cookie Dough

Cook time5 min

This creamy, spoonable dough comes together from heat-treated flour, softened butter, and a splash of milk and vanilla, whipped until light and fluffy with a hand mixer. Mini chocolate chips get folded in at the end, giving every scoop little pockets of melty richness throughout. The flour gets toasted in the oven first, so there's zero concern about raw flour safety, and this version skips the sugars that would normally sneak into a typical batch. It's the kind of treat you can eat straight from the bowl with a spoon, no baking required. Keep it chilled in an airtight container and you've got a ready-to-go snack all week that fits neatly into an added sugar free routine.

½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
½ cup packed light brown sugar
Chef's tip
Use the same volume. Brown-sugar replacements vary in moisture, spread, and browning, so follow the package's baking guidance and start checking a few minutes early.
2 tbsp granulated sugar
Chef's tip
Use the same volume. Baking behavior varies by blend: some brown faster or stay softer, while others brown less. Follow the package's baking guidance and start checking a few minutes early.
2 tbsp milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
¼ tsp fine salt
¾ cup mini chocolate chips
Chef's tip
Use the same amount. Regular chocolate chips are larger, so they won't spread through the batter as evenly as mini chips. You can roughly chop them for a more even result.

Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread the flour in an even layer on a rimmed baking sheet and bake for 5 minutes, until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) on an instant-read thermometer. Remove from the oven and let cool completely, about 15 minutes, before using.
2
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together with a hand mixer or stand mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
