storage/reheating

FAQs

Why do I need heat-treated flour?

I use heat-treated flour because it makes the flour safe to consume in a no-bake recipe. Raw flour should not be eaten without proper heat treatment.

Can I make this recipe without chocolate chips?

I can absolutely leave out the chocolate chips or replace them with another favorite mix-in.

How do I heat-treat flour?

I spread the flour on a baking sheet and bake it at 350°F (175°C) for about 5 minutes, then allow it to cool completely before using it.

Can I make this cookie dough dairy-free?

I can substitute dairy-free butter and a plant-based milk alternative with excellent results.

Can I freeze edible cookie dough?

I can freeze the dough in an airtight container for up to 2 months. I thaw it in the refrigerator before enjoying it.
