If simply the idea of eating raw chocolate chip cookie dough makes you happy, our Top Pick Of The Week is for you.

If actually eating it is ecstasy, prepare to experience Sweet Loren’s Cookie Dough.

Sweet Loren’s is an allergen-free cookie dough brand dedicated to clean ingredients and great flavor, in four of the most popular cookie flavors:

 
You can bake the cookies, or safely eat the raw dough. We’ve done both, but our mood often leads us to a ball of raw dough.

Whether or not you have any food allergies, the cookie dough (and the cookies baked with it) are delicious.
 
 
WHAT ARE CLEAN INGREDIENTS?

While there is no single industry or government definition (though we hope one will arise), “clean” ingredients typically means:

 
For Sweet Loren’s, the latter means that the dough is dairy free, gluten free, Non-GMO, nut free and vegan (and also corn free and soy free).

After beating cancer in her early twenties, Sweet Loren’s founder and CEO Loren Brill made it her mission to eliminate processed foods from her diet. Unable to find great tasting cookies made from clean ingredients, she developed her own.

She’s done a great job!
 
 
HOW TO ENJOY SWEET LOREN’S COOKIE DOUGH

Need a cookie fix in a hurry? Take a pre-cut round of dough (photo #2) from the freezer and microwave it for 1:15 minutes. Let the cookie harden for five minutes—or eat it warm and gooey.

If you microwave the dough for just 30 seconds and you have a delicious molten lump. In 45 seconds, a lava cake-like bite emerges.

You can bake the cookies in a conventional or convection oven, in a toaster oven, even in an air fryer and a solar oven.

Our favorite way is to snack on the raw cookie dough, or to have a mixed grill of baked, molten and raw cookies with a tall glass of milk.
 
 
RECIPES GALORE

Use the dough to create cookie dough bars, brookies, cake pops, crusts for pies and tarts, ice cream sandwiches, skillet cookies, as and specialty recipes like these:

 
You can color the Sugar Cookie dough in rainbow hues, green for St. Patrick’s Day, or the colors of your favorite team.

You can turn roll any of the doughs into cookie cutter shapes: ghosts for Halloween, hearts for Valentine’s Day, etc.

And when winter rolls around, we can’t wait to make these Melted Snowman Cookies.

In fact, the website has 32 pages of recipes, including many holiday and seasonal variations.
 
 
EDIBLE COOKIE DOUGH CUPS

Sweet Loren’s turned their cookie doughs into cookie dough cups: like a cup of ice cream, it’s raw cookie dough made softer, to be eaten with a spoon.

The flavors:

 
While many fans will want to dig in, we actually prefer the raw cookies themselves. They cookie rounds have a texture we find more appealing.
