You mean to ***** a raw shell egg into a protein drink and blend?
That is not recommended, either - the FDA recommends against eating any uncooked egg product unless it is pasteurized. Pasteurized eggs in shell are not as common as regular eggs - but they are appearing in more and more grocery shelves.

um..you can? technically your not supposed to because of salmonella risk. But I used to drink every morning for years - 2 raw eggs, a piece of fruit a dash of vanilla and some milk in a blender. Ive never gotten sick so far, but I always make sure to inspect and wash the eggs first and only use fresh ones. So I dunno.
I remember my teacher in high school telling us not to lick the spoon after mixing cake batter and I’m like.. uhh I just had raw eggs this morning..?

If it a cookie dough that is made to be baked into cookies, it will prolly have eggs in it. If it’s purpose is to be served raw, it prolly doesn’t. Especially if it is a commercially made cookie dough-like you find in ice cream, I doubt the company would want the liability of serving raw egg. Here is a recipe for cookie dough truffles. Since it is not meant to be baked, sweetened condensed milk is used as the binder instead of egg. This tastes like regular cookie dough, but without the risk.
