Steps
Spread the flour out on a cookie sheet and bake at 350°F for 5 to 6 minutes, this should get the flour to a temperature of 160°F and kill any bacteria.
In a large bowl with a hand mixer or a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugars until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
Add the heavy cream, vanilla, and almond extracts and mix until combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the cooled heat-treated flour and salt, then add it to the wet ingredients in two separate additions. Mix until fully combined.
Fold in the sprinkles and enjoy immediately or store in an air-tight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week or in the freezer for up to 6 months.
Notes
- This recipe makes around 4 cups of edible cookie dough and each serving is about 1/4 cup.
- Why Do I Need To Bake The Flour? Baking the flour heats it to a high enough temperature to kill any bacteria that may be lurking in it. This simple step ensures the edible cookie dough is safe to eat!
- How Should I Store This Sugar Cookie Dough? Store it in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to one week.
- Can I Make This Ahead And Freeze It To Enjoy It At A Later Date? Yes, once it’s been made you can place it in an airtight container. Or even a Ziploc back with the excess air squeezed out of it. Then you can store it in the freezer for up to 6 months. When you’re ready to enjoy it just thaw it overnight in the refrigerator.
- Is There Another Way To Heat Treat The Flour? You can also heat treat the flour right in the microwave! Simply place the flour in a microwave-safe bowl and then microwave it for five 15-second intervals. Stir between each interval. Once the temperature of the heated flour has reached 160 Degrees F it’s safe to use in this recipe. To check the temperature of the flour just use a kitchen thermometer.
