Description

Delicious and healthy High-Protein Yogurt Cookie Dough Cups that are easy to make and perfect for a guilt-free snack. These no-bake, protein-packed treats combine the creaminess of vanilla Greek yogurt with the texture of almond flour and a touch of sweetness from maple syrup, enhanced by decadent mini chocolate chips. Ideal for a quick energy boost or a nutritious dessert.


Ingredients

Scale

Yogurt Mixture

  • 1 cup vanilla Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup almond flour
  • 1/4 cup protein powder
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Add-ins

  • 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips


Instructions

  1. Mix Ingredients: In a bowl, combine the vanilla Greek yogurt, almond flour, protein powder, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Stir thoroughly to ensure all ingredients are evenly blended into a smooth dough-like consistency.
  2. Add Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in the mini chocolate chips, distributing them evenly throughout the mixture without overmixing, to maintain the texture.
  3. Portion Mixture: Spoon the cookie dough mixture into cupcake liners or small cups to create individual serving sizes, making the dessert easy to handle and serve.
  4. Freeze: Place the filled cups in the freezer for 1-2 hours until the mixture firms up, allowing the cups to hold their shape and reach a cool, firm consistency.
  5. Serve and Enjoy: Remove from the freezer and serve immediately. These cookie dough cups are best enjoyed straight from the freezer for a refreshing and satisfying treat.

Notes

  • Use full-fat Greek yogurt for creamier texture and richer flavor.
  • For a vegan option, substitute Greek yogurt with coconut or almond-based yogurt and ensure the protein powder is plant-based.
  • Adjust sweetness by adding more or less maple syrup to taste.
  • Store leftover cookie dough cups in the freezer in an airtight container for up to one week.
  • Can substitute mini chocolate chips with chopped nuts or dried fruit for variety.
