You know what's totally awesome? Chocolate chip cookie dough! You know what's not awesome?? Not being able to eat raw eggs while pregnant. Ok, I know technically no one should be eating raw eggs, but there are some things that just aren't worth risking while pregnant! And so the need for egg free cookie dough.
One of the problems with just leaving out the egg, is that the texture becomes super grainy and crumbly - especially when using gluten free flour. I thought I would try to remedy this by adding vegetable oil to the mixture, and sure enough it did the trick! So now I can still indulge in one of my favorite treats {not sure if that's actually good or bad lol.}
 PREP TIME 5 min YIELDS apprx. 2 cups Ingredients:
Directions: Begin by breaking up any chunks in the brown sugar in a small-medium bowl. Then add softened butter and whip until light and fluffy {if butter is completely melted, this will not happen.} Next add in oil & vanilla and stir until smooth, then fold in flour gradually. Finally add your chocolate chips - you may prefer less or more that suggested. Enjoy! |
aww sad that doesn't sound so great. i'm a new follower but i've seen that you have followed me back! so thanks!
ReplyDeleteOh yum! I really need to try more of your gf recipes for my in-laws.
ReplyDeletelol - I've been terrible about posting recipes lately, but hopefully i'll have more coming soon :) it seems like practically everyone these days is either having issues with gluten or knows someone that does... crazy sauce :P
ReplyDeleteI know I am sounding really dum right now, but do you not cook this dough? You just eat it as is? Looks yummo, I've just never done this before!
ReplyDeletehaha - yes! Kind of weird to post a recipe for dough that you don't bake, i know... Gluten free dough can get kind of weird without the eggs {which i don't want to eat raw while preggers} so since I found a substitute that makes the dough still yummy I thought i would share :)
ReplyDeletethanks for following! :)
