Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour (spooned and leveled)
- 1/2 tsp salt
Wet Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter (softened)
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1-2 tablespoons milk
Add-ins
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Read the disclaimer: Review the notes regarding using heat-treated flour to ensure it is safe to consume raw.
- Heat-treat the flour: Preheat your oven to 350°F (177°C). Spread the raw flour evenly on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake for 6-7 minutes until the flour temperature reaches at least 165°F (74°C), which eliminates harmful bacteria.
- Cream butter and sugars: In a large bowl, combine softened butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and salt. Beat them together for 3-4 minutes until the mixture is light, fluffy, and well incorporated. Stir in the vanilla extract for flavor.
- Mix in flour: Gradually add the heat-treated flour to the creamed mixture, mixing just until combined. If the dough feels too thick or dry, add milk one tablespoon at a time to reach your preferred consistency.
- Fold in chocolate chips: Gently fold the chocolate chips evenly into the dough, distributing the sweetness and texture throughout.
- Store: Transfer the dough to an airtight container. Refrigerate for up to one week or freeze for up to one month to maintain freshness and enjoy later.
Notes
- Always heat-treat flour by baking it to at least 165°F to kill any harmful bacteria before using raw in edible dough recipes.
- You can customize this dough by adding nuts, different types of chocolate, or sprinkles.
- The dough is best enjoyed within a week refrigerated, but it can be frozen for longer storage.
- Use an airtight container to keep the dough moist and to prevent it from drying out.
