Who doesn't love the smell of freshly baked cookies wafting through the house? But what if we told you that you could skip the whole "making individual cookies" part and just bake the dough itself? That's right, we're talking about baked cookie dough - a delicious treat that's as easy to make as it is to devour.
What is Baked Cookie Dough?
Think of it as the best of both worlds - the gooey, indulgent goodness of cookie dough, with the crispy, golden edges of a baked cookie. It's like a warm hug for your taste buds, a sweet symphony of flavours and textures that will have you coming back for more.
How to Make Baked Cookie Dough
First things first, pick your favourite cookie dough (chocolate chip, brownie, vanilla, salted caramel or vegan diet friendly - the choice is yours!). Then, instead of scooping out individual cookies, spread the dough in a baking dish or cast-iron skillet and pop it in the oven. Bake until the top is golden brown and the edges are crispy, but the centre is still nice and gooey.
Why You'll Love It
Baked cookie dough is the perfect solution for those times when you want freshly baked cookies but don't have the patience (or the willpower) to wait for them to cool. Plus, it's a great way to switch up your cookie game and impress your friends with your baking prowess.
So go ahead, get creative with your cookie dough flavours, mix in some fun add-ins like sprinkles or nuts, popping candy or fudge and bake up a batch of deliciousness. Your taste buds will thank you!
