Edible Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough

If you love the combination of peanut butter and chocolate, this cookie dough is going to be your new go-to. This recipe is great because it’s meant to be eaten raw, since there’s no egg; it’s also a little bit healthier because there’s no added sugar. You can customize it quite a bit to your preferences; the recipe calls for smooth peanut butter, but I have sometimes gone half-and-half with crunchy peanut butter for added texture. While I haven’t experimented with adding protein powder, I’m sure that would be a great substitution, too.
