Why You’ll Love This Recipe

• High protein and low in sugar – great post-workout snack
• No baking, no eggs – safe to eat raw
• Smooth, creamy texture with a rich chocolate peanut butter flavor
• Uses full-fat cottage cheese for a protein boost
• Stores well in the fridge or freezer for anytime cravings

Ingredients

• full-fat cottage cheese – for a creamy base and high protein
• smooth peanut butter – adds healthy fats and a rich nutty flavor
• cocoa powder – for deep chocolate taste
• powdered sweetener (monk fruit or allulose) – to keep it low carb
• almond flour – creates that classic cookie dough texture
• vanilla extract (optional) – for depth of flavor

Instructions

• Add cottage cheese and peanut butter to a food processor or blender. Blend until smooth.
• Add cocoa powder, sweetener, vanilla, and salt to the cottage cheese mixture. Blend again until fully combined.
• Stir in almond flour by hand to create a soft cookie dough consistency.
• Taste and adjust the sweetness if needed.
• Chill 15 minutes before scooping. Store in an airtight container in the fridge.

Expert Tips

• Use smooth, full-fat cottage cheese for the best creamy texture
• If dough is too soft, add a little extra almond flour (1 tbsp at a time)
• For a fudgier finish, add 1 tsp melted butter or coconut oil
• Want a firmer texture for shaping into sandwich rounds? Freeze for 15–20 minutes before shaping
• For the best results, make sure your cottage cheese is full-fat and smooth. Avoid big curds or small curd low-fat versions—they don’t give the same creamy texture.
• This dough spreads easily on parchment paper and can even be pressed into a baking sheet for freezing.

Ingredient Swaps

• Swap peanut butter for almond butter or cashew butter
• Use coconut flour instead of almond flour (start with 2 tbsp and adjust)
• Sweetener: allulose, erythritol, or stevia blends all work

Storage Tips

• Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days
• Freeze in portions for up to 2 months – great for grab-and-go sweet treats

Optional Variations

• Want to boost the protein even more? Try mixing in a scoop of vanilla protein powder or a spoonful of Greek yogurt. Both will give it a mild flavor and even more staying power.
• Not a fan of peanut butter? Try sunflower seed butter or even cream cheese for a totally different twist!
• Craving a little more texture? Fold in a few sugar-free white chocolate chips, mini chocolate chips, or your favorite mix-ins to make it feel even more like real cookie dough.

What to Serve With

• Use it as the base for Mini Cottage Cheese Ice Cream Sandwiches
