How to Make My Gluten-Free Double Chocolate Edible Cookie Dough
Step 1: Blend the Wet Ingredients
Mix the cottage cheese, cocoa powder, almond butter, maple syrup, vanilla extract, almond extract, and salt in a blender, food processor, or, my favorite, the chopper cup with my immersion blender. Blend until smooth and creamy.


STEP 2. Add the Dry Ingredients
Pour the cottage cheese mixture into a medium-sized mixing bowl. Add the almond flour, oat flour, and protein powder. Stir with a spatula until well-combined.


Step 3: Add the Chocolate Chips
Add the chocolate chips and stir until blended. Then dig in with a spoon and enjoy!



Expert Recipe Tips
Almond and Oat Flours: Using a combination of almond flour and oat flour not only provides a pleasant texture but also ensures that this cookie dough is gluten-free. Make your own oat flour by grinding rolled oats in a blender or food processor until finely ground.
Protein Powder: The recipe calls for vanilla protein powder, but you can customize this based on your preferences. If you don’t have protein powder on hand, you can replace it with more almond or oat flour without affecting the overall taste.
Chocolate Chips: You can use any type of chocolate chips you prefer, whether it’s semi-sweet, dark chocolate, or dairy-free chocolate chips to keep the recipe dairy-free.
Delicious Serving Suggestions
- Straight from the Bowl: Enjoy a spoonful of this rich, chocolatey dough as a quick and satisfying snack.
- Scoop and Freeze: Roll the dough into balls and freeze for a grab-and-go chocolate treat.
- Top with Extra Chocolate Chips: Sprinkle some extra chocolate chips or cocoa nibs on top for added texture and flavor.
- Pair with Fresh Fruit: Serve alongside strawberries or bananas for a balanced and indulgent snack.
