Chocolate Chip Greek Yogurt (Printable)
A creamy, protein-rich treat combining Greek yogurt, almond flour, and chocolate chips.
# What You'll Need:
→ Base
01 - 1 cup plain Greek yogurt, full-fat or low-fat
02 - 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
03 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
04 - 1/4 cup brown sugar, packed
05 - 1/8 teaspoon salt
→ Dry Ingredients
06 - 1 cup almond flour or heat-treated all-purpose flour
07 - 1/4 cup oat flour or additional almond flour
→ Add-ins
08 - 1/2 cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
# How-To Steps:
01 - In a medium mixing bowl, combine Greek yogurt, softened butter, vanilla extract, brown sugar, and salt. Mix until completely smooth and creamy with no lumps remaining.
02 - Stir in almond flour and oat flour gradually until a thick, dough-like consistency forms. Scrape bowl sides to ensure even incorporation.
03 - Fold in mini chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
04 - Taste the dough and adjust sweetness or salt level as desired.
05 - Serve immediately for a softer texture, or refrigerate for 15 to 30 minutes for a firmer, more traditional cookie dough consistency.
# Expert Advice:
01 -
- You get all the nostalgic joy of eating raw cookie dough without worrying about raw eggs
- The protein from the Greek yogurt actually makes this a snack you can feel good about serving your kids
02 -
- Regular flour is not safe to eat raw so always use heat-treated flour if you are not using almond flour
- The dough firms up significantly in the refrigerator so do not panic if it feels too soft at room temperature
03 -
- Let the butter soften completely on the counter instead of microwaving it so you do not accidentally melt it
- Use a rubber spatula to scrape the bottom of the bowl while mixing so no lonely pockets of flour remain
