For St Patty’s Day this week we will be taking a beloved classic, edible cookie dough, and turning it GREEN! With mix-in’s consisting of green food dye, chocolate chips, and lucky charms. Of course any of these may be substituted for other toppings throughout the year!
Ingredients
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups light brown sugar
1 cup unsalted butter at room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons milk
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup mix in’s of choice
Directions
For the heat-treated flour: Place the flour in a large bowl. Microwave on high in 30 second intervals, until a digital thermometer inserted into the flour reads 165˚ (check the temperature in multiple spots to get an accurate read). Stir well, then let cool completely. Remove any small clumps.
Combine the brown sugar and butter in a large bowl. Beat with a hand mixer or stand mixer with a paddle attachment until creamy and well combined, about 2 minutes. Add in the vanilla and milk and mix until combined.
In a small bowl, combine the salt and heat-treated flour. Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture in 2 to 3 batches, mixing thoroughly to combine between each addition. With the mixer on low, add in your mix-ins and mix just until combined.
