Cottage Cheese Cookie Dough Cookies Directions:
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together unsweetened applesauce, granulated sugar substitute, and brown sugar substitute until smooth.
- Mix in the fat-free cottage cheese and vanilla extract until well combined. The mixture may appear slightly curdled, but this is normal.
- In a separate bowl, combine almond flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until a soft dough forms.
- Fold in sugar-free chocolate chips and chopped almonds if desired.
- Scoop the dough into small balls and place them on the prepared baking sheets, leaving space between each one.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
