Edible cottage cheese cookie dough
We offer a raw cookie dough that is safe to eat straight away: whipped cottage cheese gives it creaminess and protein, and almond flour thickens it without eggs or raw wheat flour, with chocolate chips.
Blend the cottage cheese, maple syrup, and vanilla in the blender until the curds disappear and the texture is smooth and creamy.
Transfer the mixture to a bowl and fold in the almond flour, protein powder, and peanut butter until it comes together like a dough.
Gently fold in the chocolate chips so they distribute without breaking.
Chill it for 15 minutes to firm up more if desired, then eat it straight from the spoon.
The glycemic index (GI) measures how quickly a food raises blood sugar, while the glycemic load (GL) measures how much a full serving raises it. Together they give the complete picture.
A low value (≤55) means a gradual rise in blood sugar — the most suitable range for diabetes and insulin resistance.
Glycemic load reflects the impact of the full serving. To lower it: take half a serving, or pair the recipe with a source of protein and fiber.
* Percent Daily Values are based on a 2,000-calorie diet per FDA food-label reference values — your daily needs may be higher or lower. Values are derived from the recipe's ingredients via the USDA database.
The most common problems when preparing Safe Cottage Cheese Cookie Dough, and how to fix them:
The cottage cheese was not blended enough; blend it again until it is completely smooth.
Not enough almond flour; add it a spoonful at a time until it comes together.
Too much flour or protein; add a splash of milk or maple syrup and mix.
Reduce the maple syrup or choose dark chocolate chips with less sweetness.
Keep it in an airtight container for up to 4 days; its texture firms up more when cold.
Freeze it for up to two months in an airtight container; thaw it in the fridge before eating.
