There's a slight risk of salmonella, but, my guess is, you'll be fine!. If you're like me and you'd rather eat the batter than the baked good, you can make sure you don't get sick by making your batter with pasteurized eggs or egg substitute!.

Don't stay up tooo late ;-)Www@FoodAQ@Com

What you have to worry about is Samonella!. It is not deadly in the US as long as you go to the doctor, but it is very unpleasant!. I got it once in Central America, it really sucked!. I lost 10 pounds in little more than a day!

But I bake all the time, and I always lick the spoon! I have never gotten sick while here in the US, but even if I did, it is only temporary and you won't die!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Chill ! it is fine ! i make brownies at leat once a week and i lick each and every bowl and i have never gotten sick ! now if you made the batter with old warm eggs then i say get readyt o go to the hospital ! LOL ! i say it's a joy in life to be ablre to lick the spoon or bowl in my case LOL!Www@FoodAQ@Com

Anytime you eat raw unpasteurized eggs you are at risk of getting salmonella (the same disease you can get from eating raw or undercooked chicken or turkey) but that said it's pretty rare to get it from eggs so don't freak out just be more careful next time! Enjoy your brownies!.!.!.and your sleepover!Www@FoodAQ@Com

The chances are slim but it is not recommended that batter be eaten!. Having said that, if batter killed most of us would not be here!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

depends on the source of the eggs!. Eggs from chickens who are kept in healthy conditions don't carry the same risk for salmonella!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

You'll probably OK if you didn't eat any more than 96 oz!. (6#)Www@FoodAQ@Com

You'll be fine!. Eat up!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

LOL!.!.!.If the eggs used were fresh,clean,and uncracked!.!.!.I think you will live!.!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Ha, if if did kill, I would have been a goner years ago!Www@FoodAQ@Com
