It was inevitable. We needed a change after stuffing ourselves full of my ever-so-popular edible gluten-free cookie dough over the past few months. I almost feel like a rebel when I say that.
Our obsession began when my daughter created this simple, edible cookie dough recipe. Then it grew into a version that could double as an edible cookie dough frosting!
Finally, we settled on this new gluten free chocolate cookie dough. We loaded it with chocolate chips to make it extra chocolaty!
Why we love this edible gluten free chocolate cookie dough:
- You no longer have to warn your family not to eat the cookie dough because of raw eggs in the batter!
- You won’t have to chase your husband out of the kitchen when you are trying to make cookies.
- You can use it for many other purposes, like a crust for an ice cream pie recipe.
- This gluten free cookie dough recipe freezes really well, so make a double batch! There is no need to buy cookie dough when you can make your own!
- If you freeze a bunch of this cookie dough, you can get to it anytime and have edible cookie dough for one!

📢 Sandi says: Every gluten-free flour blend has a different starch-to-grain ratio. The brand of gluten-free flour you use will affect the moisture of the batter. If your cake batter is too runny, add more flour, and if it is too thick, add more liquids.

Frequently Asked Questions:
I used Anthony’s Organic Cocoa Powder for this recipe. This is an unsolicited plug for a product (and company) that I really love. Their cocoa has a deep, rich, chocolaty flavor that really works well. You also can’t beat the price!
You can easily make this cookie dough dairy-free by using vegan butter.
Flour can harbor bacteria. This typically bakes off when you bake your dessert, but when you are eating the flour raw, you need to make sure to bake or microwave the flour to kill the bacteria.
This cookie dough will keep fresh for up to 4 days in an airtight container or up to 4 months in the freezer.

- You can use any brand of gluten free flour blend for this recipe.

- Other dairy-free kinds of milk will work but I do not recommend canned coconut milk.

SPECIAL NOTE
Please know that every gluten free flour blend has a different starch to grain ratio. If you use a blend I didn’t test, my rule of thumb is to add more flour if your dough or batter is wet and add more liquid if the dough or batter is too dry!

As it is, no. This recipe is not intended to be baked. It has no baking powder as a leavener. If you are looking for an egg-free cookie, you can sub Bob’s Red Mill Egg Replacer in my chocolate chip cookie recipe. https://www.fearlessdining.com/gluten-free-chocolate-chip-walnut-cookies/
Hi there! New to this site. Would you be able to make this recipe with vegan butter? I am dairy free as well so I have dairy free chocolate chips. This looks so good! I am a huge fan of anything chocolate. 🙂
Hi Karin, I would think it would work, but I haven’t tested it to know what the flavor profile would be. If you do try it, please come back and let us know so other readers will know too. Thank you!
