Ingredients:

Ingredients for Cookie Dough Greek Yogurt with Chocolate Chips including Greek yogurt, oat flour, almond butter, honey, vanilla extract and mini chocolate chips

When making Cookie Dough Greek Yogurt with Chocolate Chips, here’s what you’ll need:

  • 1 1/2 cups plain Greek yogurt (I always use full-fat Greek yogurt because it makes the texture richer and creamier)
  • 1/3 cup oat flour (if you can’t find oat flour, just grind rolled oats in a blender; this is my secret shortcut for super smooth cookie dough yogurt)
  • 1/4 cup almond butter (choose unsweetened for the healthiest cookie dough Greek yogurt with chocolate chips)
  • 3 tbsp honey or maple syrup (to keep this healthy cookie dough yogurt dessert naturally sweet)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract (this always ups the flavor for my cookie dough dip)
  • 1/3 cup mini chocolate chips (these little guys bring the magic to this protein-packed cookie dough)

I like to grab my ingredients from bulk bins or when on sale at the store to keep costs down. For my Cookie Dough Greek Yogurt with Chocolate Chips, I swap almond butter with peanut butter if I’m feeling nostalgic, and the recipe still turns out fabulous every time. For busy families making this dish, prepping the oat flour ahead and keeping mini chocolate chips on hand has saved many a rushed snack moment.

How to Make – Step by Step

1. In a large bowl, mix together the Greek yogurt, oat flour, almond butter, honey, and vanilla extract. When making Cookie Dough Greek Yogurt with Chocolate Chips, I always start by blending these until the mixture is thick and creamy—like the consistency of classic cookie dough.

2. Fold in those mini chocolate chips gently. You want them well distributed, but not melted into the mix just yet. This way, your Cookie Dough Greek Yogurt with Chocolate Chips has those perfect little bursts of chocolate in every bite.

3. Cover the bowl and chill in the fridge for at least 30 minutes. This waiting time is key because it helps the oat flour absorb moisture and the flavors meld perfectly.

4. While waiting, I often steal a quick break or clean up the kitchen. Pro tip: If you’re nervous about the mixture being too thick or too runny, check consistency after chilling—it should scoop easily but hold its shape for your Cookie Dough Greek Yogurt with Chocolate Chips snack.

5. Serve cold with extra mini chocolate chips sprinkled on top for presentation. This step always earns smiles in my house—there’s just something about that visual that makes this cookie dough yogurt dessert feel special.

6. If you want to experiment, try stirring in some chopped nuts or swapping honey for maple syrup to tweak this easy cookie dough dip just how your family likes it. For some troubleshooting tips and taste ideas while making Cookie Dough Greek Yogurt with Chocolate Chips, I’ve leaned on helpful advice from This peanut butter cookie dough Greek yogurt is the easiest high ….

7. Store leftovers tightly covered in the fridge for up to 4 days. Trust me, it keeps tasting great as a protein-packed cookie dough treat.

FAQs:

Q: Can I make Cookie Dough Greek Yogurt with Chocolate Chips vegan?

I’ve tried this version and it works great, though the texture is a bit different from the classic Cookie Dough Greek Yogurt with Chocolate Chips. For vegan variations, you might find inspiration from No Bake Protein Cookie Dough – Nourished by Nic.

Q: How long does Cookie Dough Greek Yogurt with Chocolate Chips last in the fridge?
A: About 4 days if stored airtight. I’ve learned the hard way that letting it sit too long makes the oat flour absorb all moisture and the mix gets dry.

Q: What if my Cookie Dough Greek Yogurt with Chocolate Chips is too runny?
A: Try chilling it longer or adding a bit more oat flour in small increments. I’ve found that the oat flour is key for thickening, but add slowly so it doesn’t get too dry.

Q: Can I freeze Cookie Dough Greek Yogurt with Chocolate Chips?
A: I don’t recommend freezing because it changes the texture of the Greek yogurt, but if you want to try, use it within a week and thaw carefully.
