❓Frequently Asked Questions
Why heat-treat flour?
Raw flour can carry pathogens. Heating to 165°F makes edible cookie dough safer.
Can I use almond flour?
Yes for a gluten-free version—no heat treatment needed for almond flour, but texture is softer.
Too crumbly?
Add milk 1 teaspoon at a time until it rolls easily.
Peanut butter version?
Replace 2 tablespoons butter with peanut butter and reduce milk slightly.
Any eggs?
No—keep this eggless. Baked cookies are different from edible dough.
