Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

For the yogurt layer
  • 1 3/4 cups dairy-free yogurt
  • 1/4 cup peanut butter
  • 1/3 cup vanilla protein powder
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4-1/3 cup chocolate chips Adjust based on preference
For the cookie dough layer
  • 1/2 cup protein powder
  • 1/3 cup oat flour
  • 1/4 cup dairy-free milk Adjust for desired consistency
  • 3 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened chocolate chips

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine dairy-free yogurt, peanut butter, vanilla protein powder, and vanilla extract. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
  2. Line muffin cups with parchment paper to create nests. Spoon some yogurt mixture into each cup, reserving a bit for the top layer.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine protein powder, oat flour, dairy-free milk, maple syrup, and chocolate chips to make the cookie dough. Stir until you achieve a slightly sticky, scoopable consistency.
  4. Form small cookie dough bites and place them on top of the yogurt layer in each muffin cup.
  5. Cover each cookie dough bite with the remaining yogurt mixture so they’re tucked in.
  6. Freeze for several hours until solid, then transfer the cups to a sealed container.
Serving Suggestions
  1. Serve straight from the freezer for a firmer bite or let sit for 5–10 minutes for a creamier texture.
  2. Optionally, top with extra chocolate chips or a drizzle of peanut butter.

Notes

For spoonable softness, let them sit out for 5-10 minutes before serving. Use parchment liners for easy removal. If your cookie dough is too dry, adjust with more dairy-free milk.
