What do you like to do to relax?
One of my favorite ways to relax is to work on my blog while eating cookie dough. I know. That sounds super healthy, right?
Well, before I get into this not-as-healthy-as-most-of-my-recipes post, I will put out a little bit of advice:
When you want to eat something unhealthy, exercise that same day and burn off some of the calories!
I exercise because I love to eat. Doing that enables me to enjoy small treats like this with less guilt. Don’t eat this all the time but when you do, exercise that same day and enjoy!
Now, getting back to the cookie dough…
My usual go-to recipe for Egg-less Cookie Dough came from Fun Foods on a Budget. I’ve made this version an embarrassing amount of times several times!
I love this version of cookie dough but there was a problem.
I’m assuming this recipe was intended for several people to share. When I make this, it’s usually when I’m by myself (so I don’t have to share!) It makes a pretty big batch and in fear that someone would find it in the fridge, I’d eat all of it within two days.
Because I was being selfish, I’d overeat and then make myself sick.
Then the solution finally hit me–make a smaller batch so you won’t overeat!
So that’s what I did! I started making my own smaller batch and changed up some of the ingredient amounts until it was just right.
The taste and the amount this recipe made was perfect. My small batch was big enough for my sweet tooth but small enough I wouldn’t feel super guilty for eating the whole thing.
If you’re not selfish like me, you can choose to share this with a friend! It would be enough for the two of you to get a small treat!
By the way, if you’re looking for a mixer, this is the mixer I use & it’s awesome! It’s affordable and it stirs the thick cookie dough like a boss!
Quick disclaimer: This recipe calls for flour and some experts warn against eating raw flour. Researchers say microwaving the raw flour for one minute and 15 seconds stirring at 15 second intervals may kill the harmful bacteria. Eat at your own risk.

- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 2 TBSP butter, softened
- 1/8 tsp vanilla
- 1 and 1/2 TBSP milk
- 1/3 cup flour
- Pinch of salt
- Whatever add-ins you like: chocolate chips, M&Ms, nuts, etc.
- Combine softened butter and brown sugar with a mixer on low for just under a minute.
- Gently stir in vanilla, milk, flour and salt with a spoon.
- Then combine the mixture with the mixer on low for about 30 seconds.
- If you have ad-ins, pour them in and stir in with a spoon.
- If you like the cookie dough texture to be a bit more firm, set it in the fridge for about 30 minutes before eating.

Can this be mixed by hand? My mixer broke and I haven’t gotten a new one.
Unfortunately I think it would be really difficult to get the right texture without a mixer. The good news is even an inexpensive hand-held mixer would work. I hope that helps!
Hey 🙂 I’m excited to try this out sometime in the future, just wondering, can I use coconut milk instead of butter?
I’ve never tried it with coconut milk but it’s worth a try! Keep in touch and let me know how it goes!
First time trying the recipe, pretty good. It’s super sweet (to me) so maybe is it possible to cut back on the amount of brown sugar? Mine is currently in the fridge as we speak ^_^
Sure – go ahead and try it! I’m always a fan of adapting recipes to fit my tastes 🙂
I have been craving cookies but didn’t feel like making actual cookies so I decided the next best hung was cookie dough. So I hunted Pinterest and came across this beauty and so I made this today and it turned out great! Only changes I made were, I used maple extract but simply because I am not a fan of vanilla. Only had dark brown sugar on hand but it still turned out very well. Fiancé loves it as well!!
I’m so happy to hear you both liked it! Maple syrup sounds like a great addition – I may have to try that sometime!
When you put it in the fridge do you cover it
Yes I cover it up so it doesn’t dry out. I hope you enjoy this as much as I do!
Was really excited to try this recipe, but when I made mine it tasted like straight brown sugar with hint of butter. Not sure if I did something wrong but it could’ve been better. I did get it to a nice texture and after adding chocolate chips and some chocolate sprinkles it wasn’t so bad.
I know this recipe can be a little too gritty for some people so I’m glad you were able to customize it to your taste!
Can u substitute something in for brown sugar?
You might be able to. I found this article that shows you how to use white sugar instead. You can try it out & let me know how it works!
This recipe changed my life today! LOL!
I didn’t have any chocolate chips, so I added coconut, chopped pecans, and chopped up reeses cups…. AMAZING!!!!!!
You had me right at Reese’s cups. I NEED to try that soon! Thanks for sharing that awesome idea!
I just found this hiding in my Pinterest board from many a moons ago! I am wondering if anyone has tried it with a different milk? I never have normal milk in the house since I’m allergic! Can’t wait to try it though.
If you try it with a different milk I would love to know how it turns out! I know almond milk can sometimes be much sweeter than regular milk. If you use almond milk, I would substitute the 1.5 TBSP of regular milk with 1/2 TBSP of almond milk and 1 TBSP of water. I hope that helps & enjoy your cookie dough!
I just tried this with unsweetened vanilla almond milk and did not dilute it with water…sinfully good. Someone hide this recipe from me!
That’s great–thanks so much for letting us know this recipe will work with almond milk! I know I have to be careful not to make this recipe too often!
How long can this be good for? I would want to send it to a pen pal of mine.
Once this recipe is made it can be stored in the refrigerator in a covered container for a couple of days. I hope that helps!
Does it have to be regular stick butter or can it be margarine ?
I’ve always tried it with regular butter so I don’t know for sure. I think it would still work with margarine. Try it out with margarine and let me know how it goes!
My cookie dough basically tasted like brown sugar and was almost a liquid!! I don’t know what happened… help!
Hmmmm…I’m not sure what would cause that to happen! The butter should be at room temperature–not melted. Perhaps using melted butter would cause that reaction. Hopefully the next time will be better!
I did it with melted butter after it was softened and it turned out just fine for me.
Cooking and baking is always an experiment so I guess I was wrong about that theory. That’s good to know that it can work with melted butter. Thanks for letting us know Katherine!
I love this cookie dough so much! I made this for my sisters for the first time in March… they have not stopped asking me to make this ever since. We really enjoy having it every once in a while. I also love the other versions. Thank you so much!
P.S. I LOVE your blog so much. It’s awesome to see other christian woman’s lives!
You just made my day Rebecca! I’m happy to hear you and your sisters have been enjoying it as much as I have.
So glad you’re enjoying Carrie This Home–one of my biggest hopes for this blog is that it’s a place I can share the things Jesus is doing in my life as well as easy recipes & DIY projects. It’s been great to see God using it to reach other women. Thanks so much for stopping by!
After reading many comments, I’m going to try and mix up a batch and see if I can like the taste. Last time I tried to make raw edible cookie dough I was disappointed, couldn’t get the taste right…Finally added an egg and are the whole thing! Oops, lol
If you’re missing the taste of eggs you can try adding a little egg beaters to this recipe. They are safe to consume raw (according to their website under #16 here) I hope that helps!
If anyone(like me) is using coconut flour I suggest using about 2-3 TBSPS of extra milk and it’ll be just like normal cookie dough, thank you for the recipe, I really like it.
Great–thanks for the tip! I’m happy to hear you liked it!
This is amazingly awesome… my 3 littles and I enjoyed it to the fullest… thanks for this recipe… it has become my husband’s weekend pleasure… but he doesn’t share his… ha…!!! 😉…
Yay I’m so happy to hear your whole family is enjoying this! It’s one of my top 5 favorite recipes of all time 🙂 I guess I can’t blame your husband for keeping it to himself since I do the same thing!
Just made this. Mmmmm so good
I can’t argue with you–it is quite delicious! Thanks for taking the time to let me know, Grace!
It is really good, thanks for the recipe!
You’re welcome! Happy to hear you liked it!!
I just found your recipe and I made it, WOW!!!!!!!!! What a cup of perfection!!!!
Yay! I’m so glad you enjoyed it Montgomery!
So I’m NOT the only one with a crazy cookie dough habit. It’s amazing that cookies ever make it to the oven. 🙂 Pinned and sharing too. 🙂
I’m right there with you! Cookie dough is the best isn’t it?
This looks delicious! I can’t wait to give it a try! mmmmm cookie dough!
Cookie dough is the best! I hope you love it!!
This is an awesome recipe. Tastes so yummy! Thanks for posting.
It’s still one of my all-time favorite treats!! I’m glad you like it too, Kristen!
Thank you so much! Amazing recipe 😉 I have seen ones like this before but like you said, they all seem to be made for several people instead of one. This is the perfect amount too. Thanks again 🙂
I noticed the same thing with edible cookie dough recipes–that’s why I made this. I’m so glad you like it Anna!!
I am so glad I read through the comments before I tried this. I used a hand mixer and cut the sugar a bit and it was okay…added a pinch of baking soda and suddenly it tasted like regular cookie dough. Oh heavenly yum!
I’m so glad you were able to customize it to your taste, Brianne! It makes my day knowing recipes like this are making my readers happy!
how many days can you keep this in your fridge?
I would say keeping this cookie dough in the fridge for up to a week should be okay. I usually finish it in two or three days so it never lasts that long 🙂
I’ve tried at least three different single serving cookie dough recipes and this is the best one I’ve tried! It was a bit grainy because I made it in my mug instead of a mixer, but it was creamy and delicious! I didn’t have an issue with it being too sweet because I used bitter sweet chocolate chips;) definitely pinning this to use again!
Emma I’m thrilled you enjoyed this so much & thank you for taking the time to tell me! Bitter sweet chocolate chips is a great add-on that I’ll have to try!
I added just a bit more flour and milk and it turned out so light and smooth
(I ended up eating it all and making myself sick)
When I make this I eat a little and save the rest for the next day to avoid a stomach ache 🙂
This looked delicious so I made a double batch in good faith it was gonna be amazing…you can’t mess up cookie dough!!! BUT I don’t know what I did wrong…but your picture looked delicious. I light colored cookie dough with a great looking texture. I just made a batch and it was brown and runny. And honestly tasted terrible. May try again tomorrow….no double batch this time.
If it turned out runny I wonder–did you add all the flour to the mixture? I hope it turns out better for you next time!
Is there anything I could do to make the texture less sugary? I felt like I was chewing on spoonfuls of brown sugar, even after popping it in the freezer.
I love the crunchy texture but I realize not everyone is a fan. You can decrease the amount of brown sugar and increase the flour by about 3 tablespoons and see if that makes it a little smoother for you. I hope that helps Delaney!
What, no calorie count??? LOL
Sounds yummy!
Nope–no calorie count on this one since it’s a once-in-a-while treat!
it’s almost 1000 calories.
It’s not a low calorie recipe–that’s why I save this for a special once-in-awhile treat!
I used myfitnesspal and used half splenda and half brown sugar and got 569 calories per serving without chocolate chips : )
This is great! I sometimes want a little cookie dough, but my daughter is usually the one that wants it. This will be perfect for her to make a batch and share it with her sister. Then I’m not tempted to eat spoonful after spoonful of a batch of cookie dough. THANK YOU!
I made this recipe for this exact reason, so I’m super excited to hear you appreciate it! Enjoy it with your lovely girls!
I like to add a pinch of baking soda too get that realistic cookiedough expierence. =]
That’s a great idea Erin! I hope you enjoy it!
Have seen this one on Pinterest too. Had just made a batch and it’s indeed yummy! Would love to try it with vanilla ice cream and for sure they will also be a perfect match! Thanks for sharing! XoXo
You’ve inspired me Joana–I’m going to have to try it with ice cream next time! Great idea!
Just curious, is there a certain type of flour you use? One version of flour I used turned out fine, and then a different kind made it taste like paste. I have enjoyed this recipe.
I use just plain regular flour. That’s strange you got such different results but I’m so glad you enjoy the recipe!
i made this last night after finding it on Pinterest!! LOVE!!! I followed the directions and used my big mixer… Which seemed silly at the time, but was worth it 🙂 I left it in the freezer overnight and it is perfect!!! Thanks so much for creating this fabulous recipe 🙂
It does seem silly to bring out the big guns but it’s worth it! I’m so happy to hear you loved it!
I am SO happy that I found this! I am pregnant, so raw eggs are a no-no, but I have been craving cookie dough. I can’t wait to try this!!! 🙂
So glad you’re excited to try it! Anything to help a preggo! Too bad I came up with this recipe AFTER I had both my kids 😉
Made this tonight after having a craving. Turned out a little gritty so I doubled the recipe without adding more brown sugar and it was perfect. 1/4 cup brown sugar from now on. This could be dangerous!
I’m glad you were able to customize this to your taste! This recipe can be dangerous so I try to only make it on occasion 🙂
I just made this- I too mixed it by hand and not with the big clunky mixer. I am nervous mind came out nothing like the picture. Perhaps because my butter was melted rather than soften.
I see why you wouldn’t want to get out the big mixer for a small recipe like this. To get the right texture, a mixer does need to be used. If you have a smaller hand mixer that will work as well! The butter works best if it’s at room temperature. If it’s to the point of melting, it will be too soft. I’d say try it again with a mixer and you should get the right results 🙂
I did this too! I feel like this was way more than a serving, and that I was eating pure sugar. I did hand mix it in a mug, so maybe that was why.
When I make a batch I eat half of it the first day and save the rest for the next day. Or I share some with the kids.
To really get the right consistency, a mixer has to be used. But I promise digging out the mixer will be totally worth it!
I have a very sweet tooth, so if this is too sweet for you, substitute 2 tbps of the brown sugar with flour. This will make it a little less sweet and smoother. I hope that helps Julia!
I just made this for my husband, he loves cookie dough. I made it exactly like recipe, but I mixed it by hand instead of mixer. Texture was great, it looked exactly like your picture. I added small chocolate chips.
My husband said it was way to sweet. I made a single serving for my daughter in law, I told her it was way to sweet, but she said she like things sweet so I will see how she likes it. I like the single serving rather than making a full batch. I like your blog, I will try some of your other recipes.
I love having a small amount of cookie dough to snack on. I also like things on the sweet side, so my version may be too sweet for some. You can also decrease the amount of brown sugar and increase the amount of flour a little to make it fit your taste a little better. So glad you stopped by, Doreen!
My kids wanted to make this cookie dough for Santa and it came out delicious. Let’s hope the kids don’t see what’s missing 😉
I don’t think the kids would blame Santa for eating the whole thing. If given the opportunity, the kids would eat it all, right? I’m sure they’ll understand 🙂
I love all things cookie dough, so this sounds absolutely amazing! <3 Thanks so much for sharing! I can't wait to try it out! :]
I’m the same way–anything involving cookie dough gets my attention! I hope you love it Farrah!
Mine came out really dry. What did I do wrong??
I’m sorry to hear that! Did you add all of the ingredients including the milk? If you did and it’s still too dry I would add a little more milk to the dough a half a teaspoon at a time and and see if that helps.
This is heaven! Sitting here eating it right now….trying not to think about stepping on the scale in the morning. 😉 Thanks for sharing!
Just enjoy it! No worries about the scale today, okay? Okay 🙂
Oh. My. Goodness. This is literally heaven! How did you come up with this recipe?! Thanks for sharing it!
This is still one of my all time favorite recipes since I have such a big sweet tooth! I’m so happy to year you’re enjoying it! The idea came out of desperation…I was really wanting some edible cookie dough but I didn’t want to make a whole batch. One day I had the idea of making my own version that was small enough to enjoy but not too big to mess up my diet for the week. Thus Edible Cookie Dough For One was born!
should i put some eggs too? cause ive watch on youtube most of all use egg.. but this recipe is awesome! the most simple recipe i ever found..
No for this you don’t want to put in eggs since this cookie dough will be eaten raw. I’m so glad you like it and I have to agree with you–it is really simple! That’s one of the reasons I love it!
Oh my goodness! This could be dangerous.
Pinning! Thanks so much for sharing on Show Me Saturday!
~ Ashley
It is a dangerous recipe! I just made a batch for myself yesterday and it was wonderful! Hope you enjoy it Ashley!
This sounds awesome, Carrie — I love cookie dough! 🙂
There’s something special about cookie dough. Nothing satisfies my sweet tooth like cookie dough!
I love this! Every time I make chocolate chip cookies, I have the hardest time – all I want to do is eat all of the dough. And its so bad for you! I’m going to make a batch of this dough first, and THEN make cookies. Thank you for sharing – here from SITS share fest. 🙂
I’m the same way! It’s so hard for me to bake cookies and not eat the dough!
My husband would LOVE this. He is a cookie dough fiend. 🙂 Thanks for linking up to Show Me Saturday. Hope to see you there this week!
Tasty! I used unsweetened vanilla almond milk and skipped the vanilla. I also eyeballed the measurements and just added stuff until it looked to be the right consistency. Worked out pretty good!
That’s a great idea to use almond milk!
Hi, Carrie! I love that it’s “for one” size…definitely helps when I don’t have to exercise quite so much restraint! 🙂 Pinned and tweeted!
That was exactly why I wrote this post. I needed a cookie dough recipe that wansn’t big enough for a whole batch! I’m so glad you like it and thanks so much for sharing this, Blair!
Just made this & set it in fridge for a bit.
Daughter licked beaters and said it was really good!
My question is this. Can I use regular sugar to make a sugar cookie dough mix??
My son likes sugar cookie dough & I’m just curious how this can be adapted for that!?
I’m not a huge baker so I don’t “experiment” much in the baking dept! Lol
That’s a great question Melissa! I love sugar cookies so I can totally see why your son would like sugar cookie dough! I have not tried a sugar cookie version but let me do some research and get back to you. In the meantime, I’m glad to hear your daughter liked this version!
Love this!! I made it last month and it came out perfectly but I made it again tonight and for whatever reason it just didn’t wanna work! 🙁 Not sure what I did wrong but I loooove this recipe!
Sometimes the consistency of the butter really makes a difference. It works best when the butter is about room temperature–not too cold and not too warm. I hope that helps! Thanks so much for letting me know how you enjoyed it!
How do I make it less sweet?! I had to use regular almond milk as we were out of regular old milk!
Using almond milk will add a lot of sweetness. I would suggest using less brown sugar and more flour. Or you can wait until you have regular milk and try it then!
How do I make it less sweet?! I had to use regular almond milk as we were out of regular old milk!
I used coconut oil in place of butter and unsweetened almond milk instead of regular. I also added maybe 2 extra tablespoons of flour to give it a smoother texture. And chocolate chip cookie dough just isn’t complete without pecans. This totally hit the spot!
Isn’t it fun customizing recipes to just your taste? I’m glad you like it Megan!
tip : melt the butter fully before adding to sugar and substitute 1 tbsp flour for cocoa powder for a deliciously fudgey treat!
Sounds like that may be worth a try!
So I am currently eating this as I type…oh my goodness it is delicious and amazing! I know I can’t allow myself to indulge in this too often, but I went to the gym today so woohoo treat for me! Thank you so much for sharing!!
It’s really the perfect once-in-ahwile treat, isn’t it? So glad you’re enjoying it Katie!
I made this last night! I absolutely love raw cookie dough, but found this one really sweet and grainy. I added more flour, but couldnt rid the grainy texture of the sugar. I’m gonna have to experiment more, because the small amount (which is still a lot!) Is a Perfect idea!
That’s the beauty of recipes–you can always tweak them to your taste! I’m so glad you like it and hope you can find the texture that is perfect for you.
Hi
really nice cookie dough
mine was grainy too
i think ive found the answer though : apparently its not mixing the sugar and butter for long enough , so next time im going to mix it for at least 1 minute as it says rather then just mixing until it looks blended together
That’s a great suggestion, Jade! Personally I like the crunch of the brown sugar so I don’t beat it for long. Not everyone likes the crunchy/grainy texture though. For those who like a smoother texture, beating it longer should work!
Maybe if you grind down the sugar into small bit’s it would give you less of a grainy feel 🙂
Oh my! This is awesome! I was craving oatmeal cookies so I skipped the choc chips and added in cinnamon and rolled oats. Delish!
Your version sounds great Jennifer! I may have to try it sometime!
I thought it was perfect. When you go to other websites they don’t really taste right. This one tastes amazing(:
Well thank you Hailey! I’m so glad you enjoyed it!
Looks heavenly. Wonder how it would taste with Reese’s peanut butter cups, and m and m’s. maybe even peanut butter mixed in.
All those options sound great to me!
its 800 calories without chocolate chips or anything, but it tastes soooo good!
Yes Alex–it is a lot of calories. That’s why this is an occasional treat for me!
Me and my bff tried this reci and we added m&ms and chocolate buttons… IT WAS HEAVENLY! Thanks for sharing the recipe, i found it on pinterest 🙂 x
That sounds delish! Thank so much for letting me know how much you enjoyed it. I actually made a batch for myself tonight 🙂
This is delicious and easy to make thanks for the great recipe
I’m so glad you liked it! Thank you so much for the kind words!
I just made this with my mom!! We added a bit for vanilla,brown sugar and flour. It turned out great and now were letting it cool in the fridge!
Just made this because I was craving something sweet and easy. SO GOOD! I’m only going to eat half though and save the rest for tomorrow 🙂 (CHEAT DAY) – Thanks so much! 🙂
You’re welcome! I usually save a little for the next day too! You and I must think alike!
I love this recipe but home many servings does this make.
This can be for one to two people, depending on how much you want. I hope you enjoy it, Jillian!
Hi, this look awesome! I know my friend would love it and I want to make her a batch for her birthday, do you have any idea how long it would last?
I haven’t kept it around long enough to find out! I would say it should be okay refrigerated for a couple days. Honestly, if you’re making it for a friend I would make it the day you give it to them so they get the freshest taste. I hope that helps!
do you know like how many calories this is?
No but I’m sure it’s a lot! That’s why I don’t make this all the time. Every once in awhile I like to enjoy a treat like this without worrying about calories!
Found this on pinterest. Dropped what I was doing and made it. Thank you so so much!! This is perfectly delicious 🙂
I’m so happy to hear you like it!
Hi, this recipe was AMAZING!! Because I was out of milk and chocolate chips, I used a dash of water and chocolate sprinkles and it still turned out fabulous!! Will definitely be using the recipe again, thank you 🙂
I love recipes in that you can customize them to fit your needs (or what’s currently in your kitchen) I’m so glad you enjoyed it and thank you for your kind words!
This is without a doubt flawless. THANK YOU! Exactly what I was looking for!!!
So glad you enjoyed it!
Soooo delicious!Thank you for a wonderful recipe 🙂 I put the mixture in the microwave for 30 seconds and then added the chocolate chip for that under baked cookie dough taste and it was perfect!
I LOVE your idea Wanda! There’s nothing like that under baked cookie taste! I’ll have to try that sometime!
This is so delicious I don’t know if I should thank you or not 😉 I’m definitely going to be eating this a lot in the near future.
Ha ha–I’m so glad you liked it Andrea! You can thank me for the taste and just leave it at that!
Thanks so much for the recipe! Like another commenter, I added extra flour as it was just a little too sweet for me and just a little extra salt, too. I love eating raw prepared cookie dough. I know it has the potential to make me sick but what can I say? I live life on the edge…ha! But I definitely don’t want to take the risk while pregnant so thanks for making this mom-to-be very happy!
So glad to hear you liked this Lindsay! It’s definitely worth taking precautions especially for babies!
Yummy yummy! Thanks so much for posting this! I love all your recipes!
Thank you for the encouragement Rachel! That really means a lot knowing that you enjoy my recipes!
So glad I found this! My son has been begging me to let him make some but I’ve hesitated because I didn’t want him (me) to over indulge! This is perfect!
You just made my day! I’m so glad you and your son enjoyed this! You’re right–it’s just the right amount!
This is amazing!! I mixed it in with some vanilla ice cream to make cookie dough ice cream! It was soooo good! Thank you for the recipe!
You are a genius Marissa! I’ll have to try that sometime!
This VERY pregnant woman loves you SO very much right now!
You are very welcome & I’m so glad you enjoyed it! I wish I would have created this while I was preggo 🙂
Oh my yum! I need this in my life!!! I will have to make this like…right now!
Go ahead–you’ll love it! Every time I get a comment on this post I start craving it all over again!
Just made this recipe – enjoying a big bowl of cookie dough as we speak!!! THANK YOU FOR THIS.
You are very welcome! I know how exciting it is to find a recipe that hits the spot. I’m so glad you enjoyed it!
I think this will be awesome….the next time I try making it.
Eyeballing the ingredients was a bad plan, and my vanilla decided to go crazy and just poured out. WAY too much vanilla. So then I had to add a lot more flour. And whole wheat flour…not a good idea either.
But, next time.
Ahhhhh, I was already hungry and then just looking at the pictures is making my tummy rumbly in anticipation of a treat! <3
I practically drool every time I see the photos from this post! I hope you enjoy it!
This may be a dumb question but can you bake these? It would be great just to be able to make a few cookies at a time.
That’s not a dumb question–I’ve wondered that myself! I haven’t tried to bake these so I’m not sure. This mix doesn’t have eggs in it so I’m not sure how it would turn out but you can go ahead and try!
I made chocolate cupcakes and used this cookie dough recipe for the frosting! Everyone loved it!
That is a great idea! I bet those cupcakes were awesome!
I love this recipe! Perfect for that sweet tooth fix. I uped the flour to 1/2 a cup as I prefer my cookie dough a bit more “doughy,” but I absolutely love this recipe!
I’m so glad you made it your own and enjoyed it!
I love how everyone wants to make then when their kids aren’t around! I’m right there with them..who wants to share??
I just made this by halving the recipe and substituting date paste for the brown sugar…not as decadent but still a delicious treat! Thanks for the inspiration!
I’m glad this inspired you Emily! That’s what I love about finding recipes on blogs–I can always customize it to my taste.
This recipe is awesome. Props.
I’m pretty sure that eggs would be okay if you raised your own chickens or they were locally pastured. But…to be safe when you don’t have those…this is a terrific idea. Actually creating a personal size recipe is fabulous. Enjoy your blog and your indulgence, Carrie!
Thanks for sharing this at Project Inspire{d}!
I love to eat the batter as I’m baking but anything that has eggs in it I have to pass on. I love the fact that you don’t have to worry about eggs in this! So glad you’re enjoying the posts I’m writing, Diane! Thanks for the encouragement!
Oh my goodness, how embarassing..
I misread one and a half tablespoons of milk for one and a half CUPS! I thought it was a little strange for how much was going in, but I took your judgement!
it came out like a cookie dough milkshake… which I am not going to lie was delicious.
Mistakes were made, but regrets were not!
That’s so funny! You may be on to something with the cookie dough milkshake!
Just want to let you know that I’ll be featuring this post at tomorrow night’s Weekend Wind-Down party. Come over tomorrow night at 6pm. to grab a button and link up some new posts. 🙂 Thanks for a great recipe!
Thank you so much Nicole! You just made my night!
I know it’s been said a million times, but this is genius. How many times a week is too many? That is my only conundrum.
(Found your blog from Feeding Big Linky party)
I love edible cookie dough. It’s quite addicting. I found you from feeding Big’s In an Out of the Kitchen Party.
This is great! I love that it is just the right size to have myself a treat. Thanks Carrie!
You are possibly my soulsister. This is not just being pinned but being printed and posted on the kitchen fridge (because I may need this a lot). For me though – I don’t eat just the raw cookie dough (though that is yummy!) I love half baking it so it’s slightly warmed through and then putting a dollop of vanilla frozen yogurt on top to melt. Mmm… Can’t wait!
That sounds awesome Kyleigh! I may have to try that this week!
You may officially be my hero! This genius! I will be making this tonight after my girls go to bed and I get to blogging!!!
I can’t think of a better way to enjoy cookie dough Tasha!
I got my girls down a bit ago, just ate some dinner and am going to make this RIGHT NOW! Can’t wait!
I was almost afraid to click on your post as it looks too good! I love the cookie dough bits you get in ice cream, so this looks perfect! Am so making this when kids are at school tomorrow!
This is the perfect way to treat yourself while the kids are at school! I hope you enjoy it Liz!
Eating cookie dough brings back wonderful childhood memories – love it. Thanks for coming back and sharing with us at the #WWDParty.
This is a very dangerous recipe. Especially because I ALWAYS have these ingredients on hand. I guess I’ll be going to the gym a lot more;)
Having all the ingredients on hand does make it pretty tempting!
I want to make this right now!
Oh what a fun idea – and my healthy (in an I’m-not-going-to-make-you-ill sort of way) without the eggs! I’m not that big of a fan of cookie dough, but I will admit a little nibble is awesome. Thanks for sharing! This would be great (doubled, tripled) at a party too!
I love cookie dough; can’t wait to try this. I love how it’s a single serving too…perfect for portion control 😉
I love this idea! Not to encourage your sweet tooth, but… you could make your bigger batch and then freeze it into individual portions. Then you’ll be all set when the blogging mood and craving for sweets strikes. Have a great weekend!
Carrie–that is a brilliant idea! I’ll have to try that!
Too funny! I just made a big batch of this tonight for me and my kids. I love cookie dough, but I do tend to over eat. I feel it a bit now! Definitely have to try this smaller version next time!
I am so. excited. about this! I LOVE cookie dough!! This sounds like a perfect way to relax, only I would also include a cup of coffee with it. 🙂
Thanks for linking up at our Weekend Wind-Down Party! 🙂

The cup of coffee would be the a great addition! I love that idea!
Who doesn’t love cookie dough?!?
I’ll definitely be trying this.
I hope you enjoy this as much as I have!
Yum!!! I could go for this RIGHT NOW! Pinned!!
Thanks for the recipe! My daughter will love this.
I LOVE cookie dough! I am going to have to try this recipe out because I unwisely eat raw cookie dough out of the package all the time, and I know that one day I’ll be sorry for that!
Thanks Carrie, I enjoy your blog a lot! Every blessing to you, sister.
