Heat-Treating Flour (Important for Safety!)
To make your cookie dough safe to eat, you must heat-treat the flour to kill any harmful bacteria:
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Spread flour on a baking sheet.
- Bake for 5 minutes, then let it cool completely before using.
Now your flour is ready for raw desserts like this one!

1. Cream the butter and sugars
In a medium bowl, beat together the softened butter, brown sugar, and white sugar until smooth and fluffy.
2. Add wet ingredients
Mix in the peanut butter, milk, and vanilla extract until well combined.
3. Stir in dry ingredients
Add the heat-treated flour and salt. Mix until a soft dough forms.
4. Add chocolate chips
Fold in the mini chocolate chips, or your favorite mix-ins like chopped peanuts or M&Ms.
