Step 1: Prepare Your Ingredients. Start by gathering all your ingredients.
Step 2: Mix the Wet Ingredients. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cottage cheese, maple syrup, and pure vanilla extract. Use a whisk or a fork to mix them together until smooth.
Step 3: Add the Dry Ingredients. Gradually add the almond flour and protein powder to the wet mixture. Stir with a spatula until everything is just combined.
Step 4: Fold in the Chocolate Chips. Gently fold in the chocolate chips for even distribution.
Step 5: Chill and Enjoy. You can enjoy the cookie dough right away, or chill it in the fridge for 30 minutes to firm it up.
Notes
For a creamier texture, consider blending the cottage cheese before mixing. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
