Notes
Serving Size:
This recipe yields approximately 7 servings. Each serving is about 3.5 to 4 tablespoons of dough. For more precise measurements, you can weigh the dough and divide by 7. Tips & Troubleshooting:
If your cookie dough seems thinner than expected, it could be due to the cottage cheese used. For a thicker dough, try using a denser cottage cheese like the Good Culture brand. To fix thinner dough, simply add a little extra protein powder and almond flour to absorb the excess moisture. Flavor Boost:
For added depth of flavor, toast your almond flour in a pan over medium-low heat, stirring often, and keeping a close eye on it to prevent burning. Let it cool completely before mixing it into the wet ingredients. (And yes, this is a healthy recipe! It will not taste the same as traditional cookie dough, but it’s a delicious, better-for-you option!)
