What To Serve With It
I love serving my edible cookie dough with creamy ice cream toppings or rich nut butter dips for an extra treat. It’s a fun way to mix flavors, and I always find it adds a delicious twist to the dough. You could even drizzle melted chocolate over it for something truly indulgent!
Ice Cream Toppings
There’s nothing like a scoop of creamy ice cream, but when you add the right toppings, it turns into something truly special. I love sprinkling crushed cookie dough bits on top—it’s like a double dose of deliciousness. Fresh fruit, like strawberries or bananas, adds a sweet, invigorating touch. Chopped nuts give a satisfying crunch, while chocolate chips melt slightly for a gooey surprise. Whipped cream and a drizzle of caramel or chocolate syrup make it feel extra indulgent. Even a pinch of sea salt can enhance the flavors. Trust me, these toppings take your ice cream from good to unforgettable!
Nut Butter Dips
Nut butter dips are a versatile treat that can turn simple snacks into something special. I love pairing them with my homemade edible cookie dough because they add a creamy, nutty contrast that’s hard to resist. Almond butter, peanut butter, or even cashew butter work wonders, and you can jazz them up with a drizzle of honey or a pinch of cinnamon. I often serve them with apple slices, pretzels, or graham crackers for dipping. They’re quick to whip up and always a crowd-pleaser. Trust me, once you try this combo, you’ll be hooked on the perfect balance of flavors!
