Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 180 grams Greek yogurt
- 15 grams whey protein powder (vanilla, cookie dough, or unflavored)
- 20 grams creamy peanut butter
- Sweetener of choice, to taste
- 1 teaspoon chocolate chips
- Milk, as needed to adjust consistency (optional)
Instructions
- Mix Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, whey protein powder, peanut butter, and your chosen sweetener. Stir thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Adjust Consistency: Gradually add a small amount of milk to the mixture, stirring continuously, until you reach your desired texture. The quantity of milk depends on the thickness of your yogurt and protein powder.
- Add Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in the chocolate chips to incorporate that classic cookie dough crunch and flavor.
- Serve or Chill: Enjoy the cookie dough immediately as a soft treat or refrigerate it for a colder, firmer texture. Both ways deliver a satisfying snack experience.
Notes
- Use your preferred sweetener such as honey, maple syrup, stevia, or sugar-free alternatives to suit your dietary needs.
- For a vegan version, substitute Greek yogurt with a plant-based yogurt and ensure the whey protein is replaced with a vegan protein powder.
- Adding milk is optional and helps if the mixture feels too thick; adjust based on personal texture preference.
- This recipe makes one serving, easily scalable by multiplying ingredients.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days for best freshness.
