It is possible to buy edible cookie dough, for ten times the cost of dough you can bake. You can also make it yourself by heating your flour to sterilize it and not using eggs (or using pasteurized eggs). Or you could just not worry about it and eat some dough while you are baking. Don’t leave it sitting out and then eat it, though. Bacteria multiply rapidly at room temperature. https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/eating-raw-cookie-dough-is-probably-worth-the-risk
