If you’ve tried baking cookies, we’re sure you couldn’t resist taking a small bite of the cookie dough while making it.

Luckily, we’ve found an edible cookie dough recipe that’s safe enough to eat. You don’t even need an oven for it!

Note that the first step is important because cooking the flour will help kill the bacteria in the flour to make it edible. If you have an oven, you can also heat the flour inside for five minutes at 177 degrees Celsius.
This edible cookie dough is the perfect treat if your kids are craving for something sweet. You can make it in a jiffy — it tastes like cookie-flavored polvoron without the powdery texture. Eat as is or use as toppings for ice cream, yogurt, and more. Enjoy!
