Ingredients
- 1/2 cup rolled oats or almond flour
- 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
- 1-2 tablespoons sweetener (honey or maple syrup)
- 1-2 tablespoons nut butter (peanut, almond, or cashew)
- 1-2 tablespoons milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- 2 tablespoons mini chocolate chips
- 3/4 cup Greek yogurt
Instructions
- Prepare the Cookie Dough Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats (or almond flour), protein powder, and sweetener. Mix well to ensure even distribution of the dry ingredients.
- Add Nut Butter and Milk: Stir in the nut butter and milk until a soft cookie dough forms. If the mixture seems too dry, add a little more milk until you achieve the right consistency.
- Fold in Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in the mini chocolate chips, distributing them evenly throughout the dough.
- Form the Base Layer: Press the dough into silicone muffin cups or paper liners, shaping them into an even layer at the bottom.
- Prepare the Yogurt Layer: In a separate bowl, whisk the Greek yogurt and a small scoop of protein powder until smooth. Sweeten to taste with extra honey or maple syrup.
- Assemble the Cups: Spoon the yogurt mixture over each cookie dough base, spreading it gently to fill the cups. Optionally, top with extra chocolate chips or a drizzle of nut butter.
- Chill Before Serving: Chill the cups in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours or freeze them for 20-30 minutes until set. Enjoy your delicious treats!
