How to Make Edible Gluten-Free Cookie Dough (Overview)

Making this cookie dough is as easy as pie (or should I say cookie?). Start by mixing the butter and sugar for that perfect fluffy texture. Add in your liquids and almond flour, and don’t rush—make sure everything is blended well. The best part? Folding in those chocolate chips at the end gives you little pockets of sweetness. Pro tip: Allowing it to chill for a bit can enhance the flavors, but honestly, who has that kind of patience? 😏

You can serve it in dainty dessert cups, or just grab a spoon and dig in right from the mixing bowl (no judgment here!). Feeling fancy? Try serving it with fresh berries on the side for that touch of freshness!
