Question

Can I make cupcakes with this?

Community Answer

No. You need a cake batter to make cupcakes, not cookie dough.
Question

Aren't you supposed to bake the flour separately first, since it may contain bacteria?

Community Answer

Yes, it is highly recommended to bake the cookie dough if you plan to eat more than a few servings. However, some people enjoy eating raw cookie dough without it being baked. This is not completely safe and you should keep your stomach in mind when doing so. A few bites probably won't harm you, but more than that can lead to stomach pain so consume safely and don't over-do what your body can't handle.
Question

How long will it take?
