Description
When you choose to make Cottage Cheese Cookie Dough, you are choosing a snack that works for your body. Cottage cheese is primarily made of casein protein. Casein is a slow digesting protein, which means it provides a steady release of amino acids into your bloodstream. This makes it an ideal snack before bed or during a long afternoon at work, as it keeps you feeling full and satisfied for much longer than a simple carbohydrate snack would.
Ingredients
1 cup cottage cheese
2 tbsp maple syrup or honey
1 tsp vanilla extract
¼ cup almond flour (or oat flour)
2 tbsp peanut butter or almond butter
2–3 tbsp mini chocolate chips
Pinch of salt
Instructions
Add cottage cheese, maple syrup, vanilla extract, peanut butter, and salt to a blender or food processor.
Blend until completely smooth and creamy.
Transfer the mixture to a bowl.
Stir in almond flour until it forms a cookie-dough texture.
Fold in the mini chocolate chips.
Chill for 10–15 minutes for thicker dough (optional).
Serve with a spoon or as a dip for fruit, crackers, or graham cookies.
Notes
This cottage cheese cookie dough is a quick, high-protein treat that’s perfect when you want something sweet without baking. For extra flavor and texture, you can mix in chopped nuts, shredded coconut, dark chocolate chips, or a sprinkle of cinnamon. If you prefer a thicker dough, chill it in the refrigerator for 10–15 minutes before serving.
