There is nothing quite like homemade cookie dough – especially after you’ve formed all your cookies and you’re left with the dough in the bowl. After many attempts of trying to get my girls to stop eating raw cookie dough, I finally made this eggless version. It’s so good and lighter than the typical store-bought edible cookie dough out there.

Gluten-free oat and almond flour
Butter– For a vegan cookie dough, use vegan butter.
Almond milk– You can use any kind of milk such as dairy, oat, cashew, etc.

Next, in a large mixing bowl with a spoon, stir together the dry ingredients minus the chocolate chips.

Add the melted butter to the dry mixture and stir until combined. Next, add the milk starting at ¼ cup, and stir until a dough forms.

If you want your dough to be creamier, then add one to two extra tablespoons of milk.
