The best cookie dough protein cups! 🍪

7/25 Edited to

... Read moreIf you're looking for a sweet treat that satisfies your cookie dough cravings without derailing your nutrition goals, these cookie dough protein cups are a game changer. The combination of vanilla protein powder, cottage cheese, PB Fit peanut butter powder, monkfruit sweetener, and oat fiber creates a thick, dough-like texture that feels indulgent but is actually packed with nutrition. One bite provides 9 grams of protein, which helps keep you fuller longer and supports muscle recovery. In my experience, incorporating cottage cheese into desserts is an easy and effective way to boost protein content without sacrificing taste or texture. The zero sugar pudding mix adds creaminess while keeping the calorie count low. Melting dark chocolate chips and layering them around the dough adds richness and a satisfying crunch. One tip for the best results is to let the protein cups freeze for at least two hours before enjoying. This helps them solidify into the perfect bite-sized portions. You can also experiment with different protein powder flavors like chocolate or cookie dough for variety. For those watching sugar intake, monkfruit sweetener is a great natural alternative that doesn’t spike blood sugar. Overall, these cookie dough protein cups make an excellent after-dinner dessert, post-workout snack, or anytime treat when you want something sweet and nutritious. They’re simple to prepare with common pantry ingredients and are ideal for meal prepping or on-the-go snacking. Give this recipe a try if you want a guilt-free way to indulge your sweet tooth and stay on track with your healthy eating goals.

Homemade and super delicious! The best part is you can store them in your freezer. 🥳 ~If you make the full 57 servings that comes out to a little less than 100 cals per cookie! I love to put a couple in the oven at night for an after dinner snack. 💖 From frozen- 350* at 10 mins works great!!!
