Raw cookie dough has always been one of my favorite snacks, one of the best parts of making cookies.

Between raw flour and raw eggs, traditional cookie dough can introduce danger of salmonella and other contaminants when eaten raw. When most people consider the potential health risks of raw cookie dough, the first thing they think of is the raw eggs, however raw flour also introduces dangers of bacterial contamination. With modern egg treatment practices in many countries, the flour actually poses a bigger risk than the eggs!

In this recipe we not only leave out any raw eggs, we also heat treat the flour in order to make a totally safe to eat cookie dough that can satisfy your craving without any risk.

Making this recipe gluten-free by using buckwheat flour is a no-brainer in my mind. I try to limit the amount of gluten I eat, so when something like this which doesn't need gluten or any other binders to contribute to it's consistency after baking, it was an easy decision to make.

This recipe is for a small batch, serving two people and is super easy to put together for a unique after dinner desert or mid-day snack.
