Ingredients
1 cup cottage cheese
3 tablespoons maple syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons peanut butter
3/4 cup almond flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup mini chocolate chips
Instructions
1. Add the cottage cheese, maple syrup, vanilla extract, peanut butter, and salt to a blender or food processor. Blend until completely smooth.
2. Transfer the blended mixture to a mixing bowl and stir in the almond flour until a thick cookie dough forms.
3. Fold in the mini chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
4. Chill the dough for 20 to 30 minutes for the best texture.
5. Scoop and serve cold.
Notes
Blend the cottage cheese fully so the dough turns smooth and creamy without any curds left behind.
Chill the dough before serving because almond flour thickens more as it rests.
Mini chocolate chips work best since they distribute evenly and make every bite taste balanced.
