Ingredients

⅓ cup flour heat treated
2 ½ tablespoons softened butter
⅓ cup white sugar
½ teaspoon vanilla
⅛ teaspoon salt
1-2 teaspoons milk or almond milk
sprinkles, colored sugar, mini chocolate chips optional

Cream the butter and sugar together with a mixer on high speed until light and fluffy, 2-3 minutes. Mix in the vanilla.
Mix in the flour and salt. Add 1-2 teaspoons of milk as needed until the dough comes together into a ball.
Optional, add sprinkles, colored sugars, and/or mini chocolate chips. Stir or mix on low.
If desired, scoop into balls and chill until firm.
Let chilled dough warm slightly at room temperature before enjoying.

Notes

Disclaimer: The FDA warns that eating uncooked flour can cause illness and that heat treating flour at home may not effectively kill all bacteria. Please eat cookie dough at your own risk.

How to Heat Treat Flour

Microwave. Microwave on high in 30-second increments, stirring in between.

Oven. Spread onto a rimmed baking sheet and bake at 350 for 7-10 minutes, stirring every few minutes.

Heat until it reaches 165 degrees. Let cool completely. Place it in the refrigerator to speed up the cooling process. Sift before using.

Storage & Freezing

Store cookie dough in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

Freeze in a freezer-safe container or freezer bag for up to one month.
