Ingredients You’ll Need
These few simple ingredients come together beautifully to create a luscious, safe, and satisfying cookie dough experience. Each plays a vital role: butter brings creaminess, sugars add the right sweetness and texture, flour provides structure, and chocolate chips finish it all off with melty bursts of joy.
- Butter (1 tablespoon, softened): This creamy base adds richness and helps bind all the ingredients together.
- Brown sugar (1 tablespoon, packed): Contributes a deep, caramel-like flavor and moist texture.
- Granulated sugar (1 tablespoon): Balances sweetness and helps with slight crispness if desired.
- Flour (2 tablespoons): The foundation that gives the dough body; ensure it’s heat-treated if you’re concerned about raw flour safety.
- Milk or water (1 tablespoon): Adds moisture to achieve the perfect dough consistency.
- Pure vanilla extract (1/4 teaspoon): A splash of vanilla heightens the overall flavor depth.
- Chocolate chips (2 tablespoons): Little pockets of delicious chocolate that make every bite special.
How to Make Eggless Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough for One Recipe
Step 1: Cream the Butter and Sugars
Start by combining the softened butter with both brown and granulated sugars in a medium bowl. Using an electric hand mixer, whip them together until the mixture becomes smooth, creamy, and light. This step is crucial because it ensures the sugars dissolve and the texture will be luscious and easy to enjoy.
Step 2: Add the Remaining Ingredients Except Chocolate Chips
Next, incorporate the flour and your choice of liquid—milk or water—as well as the vanilla extract. Continue mixing until the ingredients come together in a velvety dough. The flour provides that signature cookie dough body, while the liquid makes the texture just right: not too dry, not too runny.
Step 3: Fold in the Chocolate Chips
Now for the best part: stir in the chocolate chips by hand. Distribute them evenly so every spoonful has those delightful bursts of melty chocolate. This small step adds texture and bright chocolate notes that make this treat irresistible.
Step 4: Enjoy Immediately or Chill
You can dive right in for a warm, soft experience, or place the dough in the fridge or freezer if you prefer a firmer, more scoopable texture. Both ways satisfy the craving, so it’s totally up to your mood and preference.

Garnishes
Want to step it up? Sprinkle a pinch of sea salt on top to enhance the chocolate flavor even further. Crushed nuts or a dusting of cinnamon can add unexpected layers of texture and aroma, elevating your simple treat to a little gourmet moment.
Side Dishes
This cookie dough pairs beautifully with a cold glass of milk or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for extra indulgence. You could also serve it with fresh berries to balance the sweetness with bright, juicy notes.
Creative Ways to Present
For a fun twist, scoop the dough into mini dessert cups or edible cookie cups for a bite-sized delight. Or, try dolloping it atop pancakes or waffles to turn breakfast into a sweet celebration. The possibilities are endless when you have this easy Eggless Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough for One Recipe ready at your fingertips.
Make Ahead and Storage
Storing Leftovers
If you have any cookie dough left, simply transfer it to an airtight container and pop it in the fridge. It will stay fresh for up to 3 days, giving you plenty of chances to enjoy spoonfuls whenever a craving strikes again.
Freezing
This dough also freezes really well. Spoon it into a freezer-safe container or roll it into small balls wrapped in plastic wrap. Freeze for up to a month, then thaw in the fridge before serving to keep that perfect texture.
Reheating
Since this is edible cookie dough, reheating isn’t necessary—unless you love it warm! If you do, a few seconds in the microwave will do the trick, just be careful not to melt the chocolate chips too much or overcook the dough.
FAQs
Can I use all-purpose flour straight from the bag?
Because this recipe is eaten raw, it’s safest to use heat-treated flour or briefly microwave the flour to kill potential bacteria before mixing it into your dough.
What can I substitute for butter?
You can try coconut oil or a vegan butter substitute if you’re looking to make this dairy-free, but it might slightly change the texture and flavor.
Is it okay to use water instead of milk?
Absolutely! Water works fine to adjust the dough’s consistency, but milk adds a touch of richness if you have it on hand.
Can I double this recipe for more servings?
Definitely! Just multiply the ingredients accordingly, but this single portion is perfect for an immediate craving without leftovers.
Why no eggs in this cookie dough?
Omitting eggs makes it safe to eat raw, reduces allergy concerns, and still keeps the dough rich and delicious.
