Place flour in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave, in increments of 30 seconds, until flour reaches at least 165℉. Stir every increment.
Let bowl cool for 10 minutes or transfer flour to a separate bowl.
Add butter, both sugars, vanilla, milk, and salt to the flour. Use a hand or stand mixer to combine ingredients until fluffy and well-incorporated.
Use a spoon to incorporate any mix-ins like mini chocolate chips, crushed Oreos or PB cups, etc. Enjoy!

Store cookie dough in the fridge. However it’s best enjoyed at room temp, so I recommend removing cookie dough from fridge 30 minutes before enjoying or microwaving for 10-20 seconds if you can’t wait to dig in! You can serve chilled but the texture will be more dense. You can also serve warm (microwaved a bit longer); it will be gooey and delicious!
More mix-in ideas in my post above! Mix-in amounts depend on what you’re mixing in. Something simple like chocolate chips? Add 1/4 - 1/3 cup.
Flour may appear moist and stick to the bowl after microwaving. That is totally normal! Just stir well to fluff before adding other ingredients.
You can use a spoon to mix ingredients, but a hand or stand mixer is best for a fluffy and well-incorporated result!
Although I haven’t tried it myself, you can use non-dairy milk if preferred but the texture and flavor might vary a bit.
Feel free to roll cookie dough into mini balls for mixing into ice cream or as a pop-able treat.
