Ingredient Notes:
- Flour: You’ll need regular all-purpose flour for the cookie dough, but we’ll heat treat it first! If you prefer a gluten-free option, you can use almond flour (no need to heat treat).
- Mini Chocolate Chips: Mini chips work best for this recipe, but regular chocolate chips can also be used. Ghirardelli semi-sweet mini chips are a favorite, but feel free to use your preferred brand.
- Milk: Instead of eggs, milk is used as the liquid component in this cookie dough. Whole milk is my preference, but you can use your favorite dairy-free milk if desired.
- White & Dark Chocolate: Opt for chocolate baking bars for smooth melting. Chocolate melting wafers work too, but avoid using chocolate chips as they contain emulsifiers and don’t melt as smoothly.
- Coconut Oil: This is optional, but adding a bit of coconut oil helps the chocolate melt into a smooth outer shell. Refined coconut oil works best to avoid imparting a coconut flavor, but you can also use a neutral vegetable oil or shortening.

Absolutely! Keep them in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 months. You can thaw them in the fridge or enjoy them frozen!
Can I bake this edible cookie dough?
No, it’s not suitable for baking. Since this cookie dough lacks eggs and leavening agents like baking soda or powder, baking it would result in a flat, burnt cookie.
