High Protein Edible Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough

Cookie dough is often a treat that’s easy to overdo. It’s so delicious and brings back the nostalgia of baking things with my mom and sister when I was little. Anyone else like to swipe a bite or two when no one is looking? 😉

That simple joy inspired me to make my own, safe-to-eat version with a serving size for one! There’s no egg and no raw flour. Oh, and it’s a high-protein treat!

“Healthier” Cookie Dough

Typically, cookie dough isn’t ideal for everyday snacking. It’s more of an indulgence!

In my version, I kept it gluten-free by using highly absorbent coconut flour, which also adds to the volume because it gets nice and thick.

I used vanilla protein powder for added vanilla flavor and of course a boost of protein! I’ve found vegan protein powders add to the dense texture (which I love!), but try it out with whatever protein you have on hand!

The butter flavoring comes from butter extract and butter-flavored coconut oil, but feel free to use ghee or butter, or even cashew butter (but then definitely add the extract).

Let’s make some dough!

Finally, “raw” cookie dough you can eat safely! I don’t like chocolate, so I leave the chips out. Do whatever sounds good to you!
