Using wholesome ingredients like cottage cheese, Greek yogurt, and natural sweeteners, this recipe is ideal for busy mornings, post-workout snacks, or any time you want a tasty, health-conscious treat.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup of cottage cheese (for creaminess and high protein)
  • 1 cup of cake flour or whole wheat flour for a healthier alternative
  • 2 tablespoons of honey or maple syrup as a natural sweetener
  • 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract to enhance flavor
  • 1/4 cup of Greek yogurt for extra creaminess
  • Chocolate or vanilla coating (choose dark chocolate for a healthier option)
  • Optional toppings: crushed nuts, sprinkles, or shredded coconut

Instructions

  1. In a blender or food processor, combine cottage cheese, Greek yogurt, honey, vanilla extract, and your choice of flour. Blend until smooth and well combined.
  2. Using your hands or a small scoop, form the mixture into uniform balls and place on a lined baking sheet. Refrigerate for 15-20 minutes to firm up.
  3. Melt your chocolate or vanilla coating. Dip each cake ball into the coating and place on a silicone mat or parchment paper. Add toppings like nuts or coconut before the coating sets.
  4. Chill the coated cake pops for 30 minutes in the refrigerator. Serve on sticks or arrange decoratively.

Notes

  • Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
  • For longer storage, freeze for up to 3 months and thaw at room temperature before serving.
  • Use dairy-free alternatives like coconut yogurt and silken tofu to make it dairy-free.
