Mary Berry Cookie Dough is a classic combination of butter, sugar, flour, and vanilla, designed to be used as a base for cookies or enjoyed raw when prepared safely. It has a soft, scoopable consistency, filled with chocolate chips or other add-ins, and offers all the comfort of a freshly mixed cookie batter without raw egg or untreated flour.
