When you're a kid, you don't really think about the things you eat (unless you know that you have a serious allergy to something specific, of course). If something tastes good, you toss it in your mouth, chew it up, and swallow without thinking about whether or not it's potentially bad for you. It's part of the whole innocence of childhood.
When you're an adult, however, you usually think about the things you're putting in your mouth. Will this make me sick? Is this healthy for me? Should I eat that extra slice of pizza? We weigh our options much more carefully.
Cookie dough, for instance, was a huge hit for me as a kid. I always wanted to lick the spoon or the bowl when Mom made chocolate chip cookies. But now? I wouldn't dare touch the stuff! The thought of eating raw eggs (and risking Salmonella poisoning) isn't exactly my list of things to try in this lifetime.
But what if I told you that there's a way to make chocolate chip cookie dough without eggs so you can eat it just as it is (without baking)? You would totally like that, right? I know I would. Well, thanks to the fine folks at PopSugar Food, that fantasy is now a reality.
In the below video, you can follow along as the host prepares edible chocolate chip cookie that's absolutely spoon-lickable! It's basically the same old chocolate chip cookie recipe you know and love but, instead of using eggs, you'll be substituting applesauce. How easy is that?!
You can get the exact ingredients and amounts by following along with the video itself, but rest assured that this is a super simple recipe that will have you licking the bowl, and feeling like a kid all over again, in no time!
