Cookie Dough Cupcakes are one of life’s guilty pleasures!
We all remember eating the raw cookie dough from the bowl after baking a fresh batch of chocolate chip cookies!
Well times have changed so let’s class it up a notch and stuff that cookie dough right into some cupcakes!
With this recipe you can choose your level of baking expertise from super easy to slightly more advanced
If you are at least an occasional baker you may want to bake your cupcakes from my scratch recipe for bakery style yellow cupcakes
Important Notes!
Be sure to toast your flour and cool it to cold before making the raw cookie dough
It is no longer deemed “safe” to eat raw cookie dough due to possible risks of contaminated raw flour.|
Don’t get me started on BigAg and our poisoned food system!
Toasting the flour in a 350°F oven for 5-7 minutes will prevent any illness from occurring!
