You know what they say: mama knows best and in this case, she’s totally right. Batter can be dangerous to consume because of uncooked ingredients.

Well, guess what? I’ve got a solution for that! Today, I’m happy to present my Brownie Batter Dough – an uncooked dough that’s totally safe to snack on. Yup, I’ve made all of your batter dough dreams come true! It’s sweet, smooth and everything you would imagine for a delicious treat. Plus, I’ve also included some extra variations so you can experiment with different flavors.

Ingredients:

• 3 tbsp unsalted butter, softened

• ½ tsp vanilla
• Pinch of salt
• Pinch of cinnamon (optional)
• ⅓ cup plus 1 tbsp all-purpose flour
• 1-2 tsp milk

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Instructions:

Begin by preparing the flour: to eliminate any sort of bacteria, toast the flour in the oven by spreading it evenly on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake at 350 degrees F for 5 minutes.

Add softened butter, sugars, vanilla and salt into a large bowl. Use a fork to combine.

Add cinnamon, if desired. Add flour one tablespoon at a time and stir until combined.

If the dough is too dry, add milk one teaspoon at a time until the rough reaches the desired consistency.

Serve and enjoy!
