I think that cottage cheese has gotten a bad wrap over the years. Personally, I have always really enjoyed cottage cheese, but I seem to be in the minority.
Some people don’t like the flavor and a lot more people complain about the texture. These days, though, this unassuming dairy product is showing up all over social media feeds.
Why exactly is everyone singing the praises of cottage cheese? Well, it is actually an excellent addition to a healthy, balanced diet. Cottage cheese is high in protein, a source of calcium, and it is also a good low-fat and low-calorie option, even if you choose a full-fat variety.
Cottage Cheese Cookie Dough Dip
Today I want to share a recipe for a totally delicious treat made with cottage cheese – cookie dough dip! This high protein snack is perfect for satisfying my sweet tooth and my hunger. Also, blending the cottage cheese mixture gives it a velvety smooth texture that I love.
Including vanilla protein powder in this recipe helps the edible cookie dough retain the flavor of a traditional chocolate chip cookie dough, but I think a chocolate or peanut butter version would also be amazing. We will have to try them next!
We especially love to eat this dip with strawberries and graham crackers. I may have just used a spoon a time or two as well. I dare you not to eat the whole thing!
Check out the full recipe on the recipe card below.
Ingredients
- Cottage cheese – I use 2%
- Maple syrup – I used Lakanto sugar-free syrup. You could also use honey.
- Pure vanilla extract
- Almond flour – all purpose flour may be used, but it must be heat treated in order for it to be safe to eat raw.
- Protein powder – I used vanilla, but you can use whatever flavor you’d like.
- Chocolate chips – I used Lily’s sugar-free dark chocolate chips.
Instructions
1. In a blender or food processor, blend the cottage cheese until it is smooth.
2. Combine all of the ingredients in a medium bowl and mix well.
3. Store in an airtight container in the fridge.
4. Serve with fruit or cookies for dipping.
Tips and Tricks
- Use more or less sweetener according to your tastes.
- Feel free to add any of your favorite cookie dough mix-ins. Try milk or white chocolate chips, caramel bits, chopped up candy bars, nuts, sprinkles, or mini M&Ms.
