Sometimes the sweetest treats are forbidden. Hence our obsession with cookie dough, the unbaked treat and possible salmonella agent that we’ve snuck guiltily since childhood — until now. Thanks to Kelsey Elizabeth Cakes’ Rocky River location, we can gorge uninhibited on 3-ounce servings of decadent cookie dough ($3.50) in chocolate chip, Funfetti cake batter, Reese’s Pieces and a half-brownie, half-chocolate chip variation. We snack guilt-free thanks to a no-egg recipe that also uses heat-treated flour, which is first baked at a temperature that kills off any bacteria before being mixed into the dough. “It’s really my mom’s and grandma’s recipes that have been handed down for a very long time and adapted to make it edible,” says Elizabeth. “They’re not just old-fashioned Toll House cookie dough.” Served in circular containers with gold lids and an attached mini spoon, Kelsey Elizabeth’s version is a decidely chic update on our guilty pleasure. That doesn’t mean one bite won’t make you feel like a kid again. 20033 Detroit Road, Rocky River, 216-767-5633, kelseyelizabethcakes.com
