The Best Edible Cookie Dough | High Protein, Gluten-Free + Dairy-Free

March 4, 2020 Comments : 4

I don’t know about you guys, but I enjoy eating cookie dough more than actual cookies! Obviously eating raw eggs is frowned upon…so I’ve spent a lot of time perfecting a delicious, egg, gluten, and dairy-free edible cookie dough recipe that is meant to be eaten by the spoonful – no baking required!

Edible Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough | Gluten-free, Dairy-free Cookie DoughThere are lots of edible cookie dough recipes out there – let’s be real – but I’ve tried a bunch and I’ve tweaked my own recipe to combine some of my favorite aspects of each of the types I’ve tested. I also wanted to incorporate a punch of protein into my recipe to make this indulgent treat a little bit healthier and more filling, rather than just empty calories – and that’s how this yummy concoction came to life.

Edible Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough | Gluten-free, Dairy-free Cookie Dough

Ingredients

  • 2 scoops vanilla protein powder (I like Orgain)
  • 1/2 cup almond flour
  • 4 tablespoons brown sugar or coconut sugar
  • 1/4-1/2 cup peanut butter
  • 2-3 tbs non-dairy butter (I use Earth Balance)
  • A dash of vanilla
  • Almond milk, adding a little at a time while stirring to make a dough-like consistency
  • Lots of chocolate chips! Maybe 2/3 cup to 1 cup (You can use Enjoy Life brand for dairy-free)

Instructions

  1. Add dry ingredients to your mixing bowl and mix well. I use my KitchenAid mixer, but you can also do this by hand.
  2. Add butter to a small glass bowl and soften in microwave, approximately 15-30 seconds.
  3. Add peanut butter, followed by softened butter and vanilla to dry ingredients and mix well. Mixture will be very thick and a bit dry at this point.
  4. Begin pouring almond milk, a little at a time, to mixing bowl while stirring constantly. I like mine to be the same consistency as real cookie dough (something that holds its shape if rolled into a ball), but you can also add more milk to make it creamier and thinner.
  5. Finally, add in your chocolate chips and stir to combine.
  6. Grab a spoon and enjoy!

Edible Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough | Gluten-free, Dairy-free Cookie DoughAs you can see, I don’t have exact measurements for a lot of the ingredients – that’s because it’s hard to mess this up and so easy to tweak to your preference. Sometimes, I’m in a mood for peanut butter, so I’ll add a little more than normal to amp up the peanut flavor (and probably use less almond milk). Other times, I’m craving chocolate and will add as many chocolate chips as I can. Okay, let’s be real….that’s every time.

Variations of Edible Cookie Dough

You can also make different variations of edible cookie dough using different flavors of protein and add-ins. I️’ve used chocolate protein powder before.I️ also love pumpkin chocolate chip cookie dough: simply cut back on the peanut butter (to 1/4 cup) and add 1/2 cup of pumpkin puree. You may also find that you need less almond milk when you add pumpkin.Edible Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough | Gluten-free, Dairy-free Cookie Dough

Note that this makes a full bowl of cookie dough, so you can share it with others or pop the remainder into a container and keep it in the fridge or freezer to enjoy later!

Happy #internationalwomensday to all of us boss ba Happy #internationalwomensday to all of us boss babes, mamas, sisters, daughters, and friends 💗 I never really thought about the true value of empowering women until I had girls of my own and wanted them to know they can be anything they want to be and do anything they want to do in life. And now, as a small business owner, they are watching my day to day of running a business have even said they want to ‘make charcuterie boards’ when they grow up 🥰 Here’s to strong women, may we know them, may we be them, may we raise them ❤️
