Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip {Edible} Cookie Dough

Who doesn’t need a way to legitimately eat cookie dough and not wonder in the back of your mind if you are going to fall deathly ill?

I actually created this recipe so that I could make cookie dough and brownie homemade ice cream. There never seems to be enough cookie dough pieces in pints of ice cream you find at the store. To make things even more interesting, I also like to add peanut butter and sometimes Nutella to the mix.

I love making homemade ice cream. You can get super creative and make a bunch of interesting flavors. My ice cream machine was bought as an anniversary present by my fiance.  It was a whole date night idea he planned for us to make different types of ice cream, etc. Pretty special considering he hates being in the kitchen.

The funny part is, we ended up finding out the hard way that you have to let the ice cream freezer bowl freeze for 12 hours before you can use it. The story of our lives. Now I just store my freezer bowl in the freezer at all times, so if I am ever craving ice cream, I get instant gratification, which just happens to be one of my favorite things!! 🙂

This is recipe is easy-peasy. You don’t have to be super strict on your measurements either, which I always appreciate.
