## The Science of Safe Cookie Dough
Raw flour can harbor bacteria, so this recipe heat-treats the flour first (microwave or oven) to make it fully safe. Without eggs, there is zero salmonella risk. The result is indistinguishable from real cookie dough — sweet, buttery, and loaded with chocolate chips.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why do you heat-treat the flour?
Raw flour can contain E. coli and other bacteria. Heat-treating it (baking or microwaving) kills any potential pathogens, making it safe to eat raw.
Can I freeze cookie dough bites?
Yes — freeze on a tray first, then transfer to a bag. They keep for 2 months. Thaw 10 minutes at room temperature before eating.
Can I use different mix-ins?
Absolutely — try M&Ms, peanut butter chips, sprinkles, or chopped Oreos. The base dough is very versatile.
