Cookie dough makes me feel like a messy girl with pigtails, beaters, and a big grin - all over again! I love cupcake batter, but cookie dough is in a class of its own. Sadly, it's probably not the safest idea for me to down gobs of raw cookie dough containing raw egg in my pregnant state (although - there is some debate about the dangers of raw egg).
The good news is that making cookie dough that is egg-free and totally safe to eat is incredibly easy. Because you aren't going to be baking the cookie dough, you don't need to worry at all about getting proportions just right, sifting, or the order of incorporating ingredients into the dough. You just dump all the ingredients in a bowl, mix, and you're done.
What to Do With Raw Cookie Dough
There are countless things to do with raw cookie dough. Some ideas are:
Raw Cookie Dough Recipe
I used the recipe for my cacao nib cookies as a base for the raw cookie dough recipe. To make it egg-less, I used milk to replace the moisture from the eggs. It worked perfectly!

Delish! Who wants raw egg anyway?! Thighs, say hello to your new nemesis.
How wonderful! I love your idea about spreading a layer between two cakes!! That sounds absolutely fabulous.
I would have never thought about spreading it between layers of a cake instead of frosting. BRILLIANT! Now then what would you use to frost the outside of the cake?
Best blog post ever! Thank you for sharing.
Oh no, this is waaay too dangerous for me. ca-nnn-ottt loooooookk at recipe.ERKK! :)
Eliana - You'd frost with cookie dough frosting of course. The recipe will be in my next post!
My roommate loves raw cookie dough; perhaps I'll try your leave-it-out-with-a-spoon-in-it trick. :)
Australians don't have the same obsession with cookie dough....yet! Sounds yummy though, I am going to bookmark this for future reference. Thanks!
Yummy!!! My office will love these!
that's why i love vegan cookie dough!!
Stef, I'm thinking somewhere along the lines of what's in this link:

Although when I make it at some point in the future, it will be even healthier than that.
As long as I'm going to be eating pounds of raw cookie dough at a time, I figure it should be somewhat healthy :)
This looks fantastic! What a great recipe!
Oh, I am so making this for my kids. They always want to eat cookie dough and since I`ve had salmonella, I don`t let them. This is perfect!
LOL Awesome!!! I used to make batches of cookie dough minus the eggs with friends growing up. Then we would chow the whole batch raw!
I've made eggless cookie dough before! I made a batch and rolled it into balls and froze them as a treat for my boyfriend. I'm totally going to make some homemade cookie dough ice cream this summer, ice cream maker or no.
genius. This recipe will come in handy. Thanks for sharing!
Oh yum- I'm loving your cheesecake idea, how good would that be?! I'm definitely going to be thinking of a great way to use this stuff!
Thank you! I'm 17 weeks preggo and have also lamented over my inability to partake in the my usual cookie dough-eating rituals. :) This is a recipe I'll be sure to try.
Mmmmmm.. somehow I missed along the way you're Preggers.. CONGRATS!! Being a mom is the best thing Ever! (and I have a 13 year old boy.. still, he's the best!)
This looks like it might be sitting in a tub in the fridge (where the kid won't find it)as a base for Cheesecake for Easter.. Hmm.. YUMMY!!
Thanks for the recipe and ideas! I must confess I eat the raw cookie dough I'm NOT supposed to eat...same goes with cake batter, eep!
This is the best! I usually just eat the raw stuff anyways, but now I won't feel so bad. Thanks for sharing!
Isnt this just perfect for a lazy day! Makes me want to eat some while relaxing on the couch!
