# Ingredients:
→ Cookie Dough
01 -
¼ cup unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
02 -
¼ cup granulated sugar
03 -
¼ cup light brown sugar, packed
04 -
1 tablespoon milk
05 -
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
06 -
½ tablespoon red food coloring
07 -
⅔ cup all-purpose flour, heat-treated
08 -
1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
09 -
¼ teaspoon salt
10 -
⅓ cup mini chocolate chips
# Instructions:
01 -
Preheat your oven to 350°F. Spread the flour evenly on a baking sheet and bake for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Use a thermometer to verify it reaches 165°F. Allow the flour to cool completely before using in your recipe. Any extra can be stored in an airtight container for future no-bake treats.
02 -
In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter with both granulated and brown sugars until the mixture is smooth and fluffy.
03 -
Mix in the milk, vanilla extract, and red food coloring until everything is well combined and you achieve that classic red velvet color.
04 -
Add the cooled heat-treated flour, cocoa powder, and salt to the bowl. Mix until all dry ingredients are fully incorporated and no flour streaks remain.
05 -
Gently fold in the mini chocolate chips, distributing them evenly throughout the dough for bursts of chocolate in every bite.
06 -
Scoop the edible cookie dough into bowls, use as a delicious topping for ice cream, or enjoy straight from the bowl with a spoon. No judgment here!
# Notes:
01 -
This no-bake treat satisfies red velvet cravings without turning on the oven (except for heat-treating the flour).
02 -
Store any leftover cookie dough in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
03 -
For a firmer texture, refrigerate the dough for 30 minutes before serving.
