- How Else Can I Heat Treat The Flour? If you don’t want to do it in the oven you could also use the microwave. To do so, add the flour to a bowl and microwave on high at intervals. The flour has been safely heat-treated once it reaches a temperature of 165 degrees F.
- Can I Add More Spices To This Edible Dough Recipe? I would say this recipe is more sweet than spicy with a lovely molasses flavor. So you can definitely add more ginger and cinnamon for a more powerful spice profile if desired.
- What Can I Dip In This Cookie Dough? You could dip fresh fruit, graham crackers, or even gingersnap cookies in it! I personally just eat it by the spoonful!
