Edible cookie dough is one western concept that is gaining popularity here a lot now. The flavour is being incorporated into frostings, fillings and desserts.
Earlier, I posted an edible cookie dough recipe, and you guys loved it. So I decided to make it for my vegan bakers family as well.
I’m the kind of a baker who craves to taste the cake batter or cookie dough whenever I make one. I’m sure many of you also like tasting the raw cookie dough and cake batters. But it’s evident that you can’t and shouldn’t eat those.
Edible cookie dough here comes to the rescue. What’s the difference between regular cookie dough and edible cookie dough? Well, regular cookie dough is made up of raw white all-purpose flour. However, edible cookie dough is made using heat-treated flour. That means the flour is first cooked in the oven and then added to cookie dough.

How To Make Vegan Edible Cookie Dough
Preparation: Since very few ingredients are required to make the edible dough, quickly gather all the necessary ingredients. Preheat the oven to 200C (OTG mode: upper rod + lower rod + fan).
Heat-treat the flour: spread 110g of flour in a baking tray and put it in a preheated oven at 200C (OTG mode: upper rod + lower rod + fan) to cook for 5 minutes. The flour will get a little brownish.
Creaming: In a bowl, cream vegan butter, castor sugar, and brown sugar. Beat it enough to incorporate a good amount of air so that it becomes pale and fluffy.
Wet Ingredients: Add soy milk and vanilla essence to the creamed butter. Mix it again to combine.
Dry Ingredients: Add sifted heat-treated all-purpose flour and mix to form a smooth dough.
Chocolate: Lastly, add the chocolate chips to the cookie dough.
Mix the chocolate chips well and your cookie is ready!
Chef’s Tips For The Recipe
Tip to Heat Treat the Flour
Timing is crucial here. Do not overcook or undercook the flour. If the flour gets too brown, it may taste bitter and not very pleasant. And if the flour is undercooked, then it will remain raw.
Experiment with flavour
This is the easiest recipe to work with. Add any other flavoured essence of your liking, or nuts and dried fruits. You can always experiment with the flavours here.
