Edible Brownie Batter is exactly what it sounds like – brownie batter made specifically for eating! No more feeling guilty sneaking a spoonful of regular brownie batter. This recipe is just for you!
Edible Brownie Batter Recipe
To make this brownie batter edible, we will exclude eggs and heat-treat the flour to make it completely safe to eat. This recipe is also great because you can include any of your favorite mix-ins like chocolate, peanut butter chips, caramel, or whatever else your heart desires!
Ingredients for Brownie Batter
- All Purpose Flour – We will heat-treat the flour to make it perfectly safe to eat.
- Melted Butter – The melted butter gives us the perfect brownie batter texture.
- Brown Sugar
- Granulated Sugar
- Milk – The milk will replace the liquid that we usually get from eggs in regular brownie batter.
- Vanilla
- Dutch Processed Cocoa Powder – This is my FAVORITE dutch processed cocoa. However, you can use regular unsweetened cocoa powder if needed.
- Salt
- Chopped Chocolate – You can either chop a chocolate bar or use chocolate chips – whichever you have on hand will work great.
How to Make Edible Brownie Batter
- Begin by heat-treating the flour (this is what makes it safe to eat). Measure out the flour into a microwave safe bowl.
- Microwave on high for 30-45 seconds to heat treat the flour.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar until mixed thoroughly.
- Next, whisk in the milk and vanilla.
- Now fold in the heat treated flour, cocoa powder and salt and mix until a brownie batter forms.
- Finally, fold in the chopped chocolate (or your other favorite mix-ins).
- Enjoy!

Oh my goodness this was heaven! Thank you!
My son loves brownies so when I saw your recipe I had to try it. It was delicious. We both loved it. My son even asked if this could be baked so I have an individual brownie square pan so I filled one and baked it at 350F for 20 minutes and we were both surprised it worked. What a fun recipe!
Turned out great, even with regular cocoa powder I had on hand!

Delicious! A lot of edible cookie doughs don’t get the right texture but this edible batter was amazing. Eating it from the fridge reminded me of eating a cosmic brownie (so next time I might put in mini M&Ms to chase that feeling!)
sooo good omg
The recipe indicates 8 servings, but what size are they? When I halved the recipe, it filled one and a half 4 oz mason jars. Thank you.
My favorite recipe for a chocolate fix!
Omg this is amazing! I made a half batch of the batter and it turned out delicious! So easy to make. I should not have found this recipe!
Delicious. I’ve made it 3 times now. I love mixing in crushed Oreos and I have a few spoonfuls at night when I get home from work.
Could this be used for a pastry filling? Thinking of making a braided roll with a brownie batter filling
I have never tried that! If you’re going to try, I would recommend freezing the brownie batter in dollops before wrapping in the braided roll to keep it from seeping out. You’ll have to let me know how it turns out!
