Because of the possibility of e-coli being found in flour it’s now a good idea to heat it in the oven to kill off any possible bacteria before consuming for things like cookie dough. And of course let’s skip the eggs.

  • Heat treat the flour: spread 3 cups of flour out onto a rimmed 18 by 13-inch baking sheet. Bake in preheated oven 7 minutes, or until flour temperature registers 160 degrees on an instant-read thermometer. Let cool completely then transfer to an airtight container.
  • I’ll be honest this step is a little messy, I like to use a metal spatula and scrap to one corner and pour into a resealable bag. Then measure out what you need from there (using the scoop and level method). 
Heat Treated Flour

Serve dough right away or chill in refrigerator in an airtight container up to one week.

1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
2/3 cup granulated sugar
1/4 tsp salt
