Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour heat-treated
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup light brown sugar, packed
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons milk adjust for consistency
  • 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips or sprinkles Optional

Method
 

  1. Heat-treat the flour: Spread the flour evenly on a baking sheet and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 5 minutes to kill any bacteria. Let it cool completely.
  2. In a mixing bowl, cream the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth.
  3. Mix in the vanilla extract and salt.
  4. Gradually add the heat-treated flour, stirring until fully combined.
  5. Add the milk one tablespoon at a time until the dough reaches your desired consistency.
  6. Fold in optional mix-ins like chocolate chips or sprinkles.
  7. Serve immediately or chill for 5-10 minutes for a firmer texture.

Notes

Always heat-treat your flour to ensure it's safe to eat raw.
Adjust the amount of milk if the dough is too dry or sticky.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
