Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 180 grams Greek yogurt
  • 15 grams whey protein powder (vanilla, cookie dough, or unflavored)
  • 20 grams creamy peanut butter
  • Sweetener of choice, to taste (e.g., honey, stevia, maple syrup)
  • 1 teaspoon chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Mix Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, whey protein powder, creamy peanut butter, and your chosen sweetener. Stir thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and creamy, ensuring all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
  2. Adjust Consistency: If the mixture is too thick, gradually add small amounts of milk (dairy or plant-based) and stir until you reach your desired cookie dough texture. The exact amount of milk needed will vary depending on the thickness of your yogurt and protein powder used.
  3. Add Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in the chocolate chips to distribute them evenly throughout the dough without breaking them.
  4. Serve or Chill: You can enjoy the cookie dough immediately for a soft treat, or refrigerate it for 15-30 minutes to allow it to chill and firm up slightly, enhancing the texture and flavor.

Notes

  • You can substitute peanut butter with almond butter or any other nut butter for a different flavor profile.
  • Use a sugar-free sweetener to make this recipe diabetic-friendly.
  • Greek yogurt can be substituted with a dairy-free yogurt for a lactose-free variation.
  • To make the texture more like traditional cookie dough, chilling before serving is recommended.
  • Whey protein powder flavor will affect the overall taste; vanilla or cookie dough flavor works best.
