I am obsessed with these COTTAGE CHEESE COOKIES. 🍪 They are high in protein, gooey and so easy to make! I’ve made 5 batches in the past two weeks and we’ve all loved them... including Isaac (who isn’t a fan of cottage cheese)! 🙌
Here’s the recipe:
1 cup large curd cottage cheese (I used
@good_culture )
¼ cup pure maple syrup
1 tsp vanilla
1 cup almond flour
2 Tablespoons melted coconut oil
½ cup vanilla protein powder
½ cup chocolate chips + more for topping
1️⃣ Preheat oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2️⃣ In a blender, add the cottage cheese, maple syrup and vanilla. Blend on high until smooth.
3️⃣ In a mixing bowl combine almond flour and protein powder. Add the coconut oil and cottage cheese mixture.
4️⃣ Stir until combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.
5️⃣ Scoop dough onto a prepared baking sheet using a medium cookie scoop and use your hands to flatten the cookies just a bit so they’re in a cookie shape. You can also roll the cookie dough into a ball and then use your hand to flatter for a more uniform shape. Add a couple more chocolate chips on top of each cookie.
6️⃣ Bake for about 15-16 minutes or until the bottom of the cookies are golden brown. Let cool and enjoy!

@jakecohen ’s amazing cottage cheese cookie dough! Feel free to sneak a few bites of this cookie dough before baking the cookies because it’s delish!
