1. Heat treat the flour: Preheat your oven to 350°F and spread the flour on a baking sheet. Bake it for about 5 minutes, stirring every now and then. Check with a thermometer to make sure it reaches 165°F. Once done, let the flour cool completely before using it in your recipe. If you’ve got extra, store it in a sealed container for later. This simple process makes your flour safe for raw or no-bake recipes. Happy cooking!
2. Make the cookie dough: In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until smooth and well combined. Add in the milk, vanilla extract, and red food coloring and mix until combined. Add in the flour, cocoa powder, and salt and mix until the flour mixture disappears. Fold in the mini chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
3. Serve the edible cookie dough in bowls or use it as a topping for desserts, ice cream, or enjoy it with a spoon straight from the bowl.
