This eggless, gluten-free cookie dough recipe uses almond flour, ghee, and honey or maple syrup to fulfill your appetite. Grab a spoon and a sprinkling of sea salt! Try my no chill chocolate chip cookies the next time you want to make cookies.

Monday has arrived. I’m busy, and you’re busy, so let’s get straight to work: I’ve created you some eggless, no-bake edible cookie dough to get you through this week.

This is something that is required. I’m aware that I’m not alone here.

Every time I bake cookies, I consume at least two cookies’ worth of uncooked dough. Every single time. I know I shouldn’t do it, I know it’s bad for me, I know I’ll get some alien illness linked to raw eggs and sweet delight, but I do it anyway.

I need to give myself something I can comfortably inhale while I’m making genuine cookies with another dough. It’s like eating a bag of cheesy poofs while cooking supper because you’re too hungry to wait for the meal.

I know I’m not the only one that does it.

Does it take exactly like raw cookie dough?

I’ll be honest with you: this does not taste precisely like raw chocolate chip cookie dough. The taste is somewhat different, but you can’t expect perfection when you leave out all of the primary cookie dough elements, you know?

I wish I could tell you that it tastes just like raw cookie dough and that you won’t be able to tell the difference, but I can’t. I’m not flawless. So don’t be furious, don’t insult me, and don’t @ me. Take it for what it is.

This is an absolutely excellent replacement, and I think I like it more than raw cookie dough. It seems more deliberate, and less like I’m depriving myself of more freshly made cookies. Because, oh my goodness, I adore freshly made cookies.

Furthermore, do not attempt to bake this. You’ll end up with a hot, melted mess. Instead, make these no-chill chocolate chip cookies.

Is it paleo edible cookie dough?

This dish contains ghee, and I believe that a little amount of ghee as part of a paleo diet is OK. In moderation, I believe in everything.

Ghee is clarified butter, which is simply butter stripped of its milk proteins, sugars, and water. It’s ideal for those who want to avoid lactose or casein in butter, which might cause problems.

So, is it really paleo? There has long been controversy about whether or not ghee should be considered dairy, therefore I will leave it up to you to decide whether or not you are comfortable using ghee. Most people believe ghee is paleo-friendly since it is the oil from butter without the lactose and milk particles.

If you have a different opinion, this dish may not be for you. If you’re not absolutely paleo and merely want to make the dish vegan, you may use vegan butter!

Flavor tweaks

I prefer to add almond extract because it gives it a sugar cookie taste, which is like eating chocolate chip sugar cookies.

[New recipe suggestion!]

There’s also sea salt. This is a necessity in my opinion. Sweet and salty will always be my favorite combination.

You should eat this while preparing chocolate chip cookies since you’re too hungry to wait for the cookies.

So there you have it: edible cookie dough free of illness and a confession that I am not perfect. What more could you want?
