Ingredients

Scale

Base Ingredients

  • 1 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup nut butter (almond or peanut butter)
  • 2–3 tablespoons maple syrup or honey (to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Mix-ins

  • 1/4 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. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, stir together the Greek yogurt, nut butter, sweetener, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
  2. Add Dry Ingredients: Incorporate protein powder, rolled oats or almond flour, mini chocolate chips, and a pinch of salt. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly combined and a cookie dough-like consistency forms.
  3. Prepare Muffin Tin: Line a muffin tin with cupcake liners to prevent sticking and make removal easier.
  4. Fill Cups: Spoon the cookie dough mixture evenly into each muffin cup, filling them about three-quarters full for best results.
  5. Freeze: Place the muffin tin in the freezer and allow the cookie dough cups to firm up for 1 to 2 hours.
  6. Serve: Take the cookie dough cups out of the freezer and let them sit at room temperature for 5 minutes before serving to soften slightly for the best texture and flavor.

Notes

  • For a nuttier flavor and gluten-free option, use almond flour instead of rolled oats.
  • Adjust sweetness according to your preference by adding more or less maple syrup or honey.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 1 week.
  • You can substitute mini chocolate chips with chopped nuts or dried fruit for variation.
