This Eggless Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough is the perfect recipe for when you want to nibble that dough but don’t want to eat raw eggs. It’s perfectly safe to eat.
I have been working the potato harvest this past week. I drive a big truck alongside the harvester and then go unload it at the potato cellar. We start at 7 am and finish (so far) at 10 pm.
Thankfully I have an awesome husband who goes at 7 and then I go around 8:30 in the morning which buys me time to get the house in order and stuff after I put Hannah and Preston on the bus. Then I drive all.day.long. until Lance comes back around 7 pm to drive the rest of the night, which gives me time with my kiddos to feed them dinner and put them to bed.
I like to think Lance is being super nice and sweet.
However, I suspect he just doesn’t want to be Mr. Mom. I tell him each night that I can drive if he will just clean the house, make dinner, bathe the kids, and put them to bed.
He hasn’t taken the offer yet.
If you follow me on Instagram you may have already seen these…
That’s my truck getting ready to be loaded with potatoes. I drvie right along the harvester. It freaked me out at first because you have to watch your distance between you and the harvester, watch the man for his signals of when to move forward or put the side door up, and not get stuck and all that.
Then I drive to the potato cellar where I back in (another freak out until I got used to backing in) and unload. This is where I read my books. I started last Satuday and am on my 3rd book just from reading while waiting to load, unload, or during breakdowns. I love getting paid to read!
The spuds go through a series of conveyor belts to be sorted and either bagged for selling or sent to processors where they make hashbrowns and fries and such.
Emma has been with Lance while I work but once in a while she rides along with me.
So I have been mighty busy. Lance came to switch me out for a couple hours so I am getting this post written while I have the chance.
Which brings me to this recipe. It is eggless for a reason. To be eaten with a spoon. Like after a long day of hauling potatoes. Or whatever.

I originally posted this recipe here, but changed a few amounts to make it better.
Yum! This would be do addicting for me to eat!! Cookie dough is my favorite!!
Oh my gosh–I totally love this, Mandy! Hectic life schedules call for total comfort food and nothing screams comfort more than a bowl of cookie dough. Loving that it's eggless so it's technically healthy 😉 and all that potato harvesting looks like hard work! Who knew spuds would be so grueling?!
The harvest sounds interesting. I had no idea…<br />Please stop by my first Co-hosted Linky party and share a few posts.<br />http://pintsizedbaker.blogspot.com/2012/09/new-design-and-first-linky-party.html<br />Thanks 🙂
I would consider driving for that many hours a day if I knew there was chocolate chip cookie dough just waiting for me to spoon it into my mouth!!! How delicious is this!!!
Could I freeze this as my children want cookie dough ice-cream sandwiches?
Yes you can freeze this. Those sandwiches sound delicious!
can we use normal granulated sugar instead of brown sugar
I find it too sweet with granulated sugar. You can try it and start with a very small amount and add in more as you need it.
this might seem like a stupid question, but can this cookie dough be baked like regular cookies or is it designed just for eating raw? I don’t remember seeing anything about baking temperatures or times in the recipe. if it can be baked, what temperature and how long?
It’s just for eating raw. Or using in a no-bake cheesecake or something like that. It’s for cookie dough lovers so we can eat it safely without the eggs. I do have a great chocolate chip cookie recipe here: https://mandysrecipeboxblog.com/2011/10/mandys-favorite-chocolate-chip-cookies.html
How much will this recipe yield? 🙂
About a normal batch’s worth. Remember, the dough is just for eating, not baking.
