Cookie Dough Addict


I love the stuff. Should I be concerned that it contains raw eggs? Maybe, but I've developed a love for raw fish while living here in Japan (I heart sushi) so a little raw egg can't be that bad.

The problem with this addiction is that when I eat cookie dough for breakfast nothing else tastes as good. Like my homemade pancakes drowning in maple syrup. Instead I feed that to my boyz.
After my unhealthy but so delicious breakfast I head out the door for a morning run. Although these days it's a slow jog equal to the speed of the Okinawa centurions I used to speed past. Bet you didn't know our island was famous for old people, did ya?

Anyway, where was I? Cookie dough followed by exercise. Hmmmmm, maybe if I laid off the cookie dough I wouldn't feel the need to run/jog/shuffle anymore?

Or maybe I'd just feel deprived.

And so I ask you: Do you prefer your cookie dough baked or not baked? And don't tell me you've never tried it for breakfast!

  1. I prefer cookie dough unbaked. I could eat it by the spoonfuls!

  2. I love it unbaked in ice cream! But I won't turn it away in the baked form either...with a big glass of milk.

  3. I'm guilty of munching on cookie dough, esp. choc. chip. But I had the most amazing dessert the other day...you'd LOVE it. Put a big scoop of cookie dough in a 4 oz. ramekin, mini cake pan, or you could try a muffin tin. Bake until just undercooked. Fresh from the oven top with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. It's a new family favorite...YUMMMM.

  4. PS...I've only had the dessert I mentioned using chocolate chip cookie dough (Toll House works great)

  5. I don't generally prefer dough over the cookies, unless its the dough from your peanut butter cookie recipe, and then oven be danged; I'm eating the whole batch raw.

  7. Baked is the only way to go. And thinking of having it for breakfast almost makes me lose it.
