Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup nut butter (almond or peanut butter)
  • 2 tbsp sweetener (maple syrup or honey)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Dry Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup protein powder (vanilla, chocolate, or unflavored)
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats or almond flour
  • 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Mix wet ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine Greek yogurt, nut butter, sweetener, and vanilla extract. Stir until the mixture is smooth and creamy, ensuring the nut butter is fully incorporated.
  2. Add dry ingredients: Add protein powder, rolled oats or almond flour, mini chocolate chips, and a pinch of salt to the wet mixture. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well combined and a cookie dough-like consistency is achieved.
  3. Prepare muffin tin: Line a muffin tin with paper liners. This will make it easier to remove the cookie dough cups after freezing.
  4. Fill muffin cups: Spoon the cookie dough mixture evenly into each muffin liner, pressing gently to pack the mixture.
  5. Freeze: Place the muffin tin in the freezer for 1 to 2 hours or until the cookie dough cups are firm to the touch.
  6. Serve: Remove the cookie dough cups from the freezer and let them sit at room temperature for about 5 minutes to soften slightly before serving for optimal texture and flavor.

Notes

  • You can substitute nut butter types based on preference or allergies.
  • The protein powder flavor impacts the final taste; vanilla adds sweetness, chocolate adds richness, and unflavored keeps it neutral.
  • Use almond flour for a gluten-free version instead of oats.
  • Store leftover cookie dough cups in the freezer in an airtight container for up to one week.
  • Allow cups to soften a little after freezing for best bite texture.
