Ingredients

Scale

Primary Ingredients

  • 1 cup cottage cheese
  • 1/2 cup almond flour
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a bowl, mix the cottage cheese and honey thoroughly until fully blended to create a smooth, sweet base.
  2. Add Dry Ingredients: Incorporate the almond flour, baking powder, and vanilla extract into the wet mixture. Stir well until the dough becomes smooth and consistent.
  3. Fold in Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in the chocolate chips evenly to distribute them throughout the dough without breaking them.
  4. Chill the Dough: Place the dough in the refrigerator and chill for 30 minutes. This helps to firm up the texture, making it easier to serve.
  5. Serve: After chilling, serve the cookie dough as a dip or enjoy it directly as a healthy, no-bake treat.

Notes

  • Use full-fat cottage cheese for a creamier texture.
  • Almond flour can be substituted with oat flour for a different flavor but may affect texture.
  • Chilling is essential for the dough to firm up and improve taste.
  • For a vegan version, replace honey with maple syrup and use a plant-based cottage cheese alternative.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
