A FITNESS enthusiast has tried a viral cookie dough recipe that is high in protein.
The TikToker, who credited similar sweet treats during her weight loss journey, demonstrated how to make the easy dessert.
In her video, Gen (@gensgym) explained: "The number one thing that helped me lose 50 pounds and keep it off is recipes like this where it’s high protein but still tastes good."
She asked her followers: "What’s the point of losing weight if you’re miserable?"
Gen revealed that the surprising secret ingredient in the dessert recipe was cottage cheese.
"It’s 225 grams of cottage cheese and one-eighth of a cup of maple syrup," she said.
After adding the two ingredients, Gen blended them together until it was smooth.
"Then we are going to do one cup of almond flour, mix it in, and see what happens," she advised viewers.
Examining the mixture, Gen said: "I’m actually in shock right now, come look at this texture, this looks like actual cookie dough."
For her final step, she added chocolate chips to the dough and mixed them in.

"I can’t believe that this has half a pound of cottage cheese in it," Gen said as she tasted the sweet treat.
She recommended: "You have to mix it with the chocolate chips though because I snuck a bite and it was not that good, it was very almondy but I’d eat this."
TikTok users took to the comments section to share their thoughts on the recipe.
"I'm soooo intrigued. I have everything but almond flour, [I'm] wondering if oat would work. I want this nowwww," wrote one viewer.
Another follower joked about the cottage cheese. They said: "This seems criminal."
"Going to try this," commented a third impressed person.
