I haven’t tried it. I don’t think it would rise without any eggs. It is really just meant to be eaten raw. 🙂

Ha ha. All these recipes around for “Edible Cookie Dough” make me laugh. Isn’t all cookie dough made with the intent of it being edible? You does look especially edible though 🙂
Carrie Forrest, MPH in Nutrition says
Thanks, Sarah! That’s so true, I honestly didn’t even think about that. What would an inedible cookie dough have to have in it to be inedible??? I guess I should have said RAW edible cookie dough! 🙂
