How To Make Edible Cookie Dough
To begin making edible cookie dough, preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread the all-purpose flour on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake it for 5 minutes. After removing the flour, let it cool completely. In the meantime, take a bowl and combine the vegan butter and coconut sugar. Use a hand mixer with whisk attachments to beat this mixture until it becomes light and fluffy. Now, add the cooled flour and salt, and continue to beat on medium speed until the ingredients are thoroughly mixed. If the dough appears too stiff, add some soy milk to soften it. The finishing touch involves folding in the vegan chocolate chips. You can now scoop the edible cookie dough into serving bowls. Enjoy it immediately, or store it for later use.
