Peanut butter cookie dough, sandwiched between oatmeal peanut butter cookies. Yes, this recipe will become a favorite, because the cookie dough has no eggs in it!
I spent an inordinate amount of time during my high school years driving around in a bright orange Ford Bronco. My best friend was at the wheel and I was usually co-pilot. We weren’t bad teenagers, we were just bored. So we drove around and around and around. We drove past friend’s houses, boy’s houses, searched for parties, and then we’d do it all over again. This was how we spent most of our weekend evenings. Sometimes we’d pile in a bunch of friends into the Bronco too (always a good idea right?) and sometimes it was just the two of us, but we were always in that Bronco.
Some nights we found ourselves at parties or friend’s houses or the movies, but no matter what we did, most evenings would end with cookie dough. I’m not saying I’m proud of this fact. My hips weren’t proud either! This just became a tradition.
Yes, you are right, it was sort of disgusting. I know there’s the whole raw cookie dough thing, something we didn’t think about back then. We just grabbed a roll and a spoon and dug in! I ate a LOT of cookie dough back then! Needless to say, I managed to cut way back on my cookie dough consumption since my teen years (my hips thank me)!
Until now, that is. My love affair with cookie dough has been rekindled with this eggless peanut butter cookie dough version! Brings back memories.
The problem with making this cookie dough is it’s too hard to stop eating! Knowing it’s egg free doesn’t help. I’d fill a cookie and then take a spoonful. Eat a cookie, take a spoonful, eat a cookie…. Honestly, I’m surprised I had enough for all my cookies!
You know what I’m going to do when these cookies are gone? I’m going to make more peanut butter cookie dough just to munch on. In fact, I think I’ll keep a tub in my fridge at all times. You just never know when that cookie dough craving will hit and I believe in always being prepared!

Cookie dough was THE thing in high school! I totally agree….and so much better to just NOT start eating it, because once you start, it’s so hard to stop! These stuffed cookies look amazing, Tanya!!

I love love love the look of this recipe. I cannot wait to try it. And I love the way your website is run. It was so easy for me to print out the recipe. Thanks for that.
