    How To Make Edible Brownie Batter 

    how to make edible brownie batter collage
    1. In a bowl, combine flour, cocoa powder, espresso, and salt. Set aside. 
    2. In another bowl, combine butter, sugar, brown sugar, milk, and vanilla. 
    3. Add the flour mixture and mix until well combined. 
    4. Fold in the chocolate chips, and serve. 

    Tips & Tricks for Edible Brownie Batter 

    folding chocolate chips into edible brownie batter

    Heat Flour 

    You need to treat your flour with heat to kill bacteria in the flour. This bacteria can make you sick when consumed raw, just like a raw egg. To heat-treat your flour, spread the flour on a baking sheet, and bake at 350°F for 5 minutes. 

    Dry Ingredients 

    Make sure to mix up the dry ingredients separate from the wet ones. This separation of wet and dry ingredients will help you batter come together more easily when you go to mix in with the wet that all the ingredients mix evenly.

    Mix-Ins 

    Instead of chocolate chips, you can mix in crushed cookies, sprinkles, or other ingredients. Just fold them in at the end of the recipe when all of the batter ingredients are well combined. 

    Espresso Powder 

    If you don't want an ultra rich brownie batter, skip the espresso powder. It will enhance a lot of flavor in the batter, especially the chocolatey cocoa flavor. 

    Dairy-Free 

    If you want a dairy-free brownie batter, use plant-based milk and butter alternatives for the recipe. You'll also want to swap out the chocolate chips for a dairy-free option, or replace them with something totally different—like nuts—that's dairy-free.

    Edible Brownie Batter FAQs

    Is it safe to eat brownie batter? 

    Eating brownie batter is not recommended if there is egg and raw flour in the batter. However, this brownie batter is safe to consume raw. It's specifically made to be eaten raw!

    How long does this batter store well? 

    You can store your brownie batter in the fridge for 3–5 days. You will find after 5 days that the mixture will begin to dry out a bit. 

    Can you freeze edible brownie batter? 

    Yes, Place it in a proper container and freeze for 2–3 months, then defrost at room temperature when ready to eat.

      This brownie upon entering my gusset was a delectable treat. The flavour oozed into my taste buds and evenly coated my tongue. The chocolate chips were a lovely crunch to the smooth treat and a great contrast. The experience as well was a lovely end to my day, and I thoroughly enjoyed eating this treat with my friends. Will be making again, keep the amazing work up!!.
