Description

A delicious and guilt-free cookie dough made with cottage cheese, perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth without the guilt.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup cottage cheese, drained
  • 1/2 cup almond flour
  • 1/4 cup erythritol or your preferred keto sweetener
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup sugar-free chocolate chips (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the cottage cheese, almond flour, erythritol, cocoa powder, vanilla extract, baking powder, and salt. Mix until well combined and smooth.
  3. If using, fold in the sugar-free chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
  4. Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  5. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are slightly firm and the tops are set.
  6. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For a different flavor, substitute almond flour with coconut flour, but use only 1/4 cup as coconut flour absorbs more moisture.
  • Add chopped nuts or dried unsweetened coconut for added texture and flavor.
