Meal Prep Desert

I have the biggest sweet tooth. I’ve tried everything to curve my cravings. I pretended fruit was as satisfying as chocolate, I tried to compromise with “healthy” versions of my favorite treats, and I’ve put my faith in low calorie ice cream. But nothing hits the spot quite like a classic chocolate chip cookie. So I've become realistic.

Whenever I crave something sweet, instead of ignoring it, or going out and buying a pint of ice cream, I make one cookie (or two if Adrian wants one). I guess it’s called portion control. I like to call it cookie prep 😁 ( it's like meal prep.. get it? get it? 😅)

Can we talk about how delicious these cookies are with oat flour? I put as much oat flour as possible into these cookies, because ya girl loves her some oatmeal chocolate chip cookies. Also if you want to feel better about eating a cookie (but really who would feel bad), oats are technically good for your cholesterol and your heart. Let's just ignore the sugar and chocolate and pretend this cookie is as healthy as running a mile. Sound good?

How to bake frozen cookie dough

1. Put as many frozen cookie dough balls as you want on a baking sheet.
2. Bake them at 375 degreese for 14-16 minutes, or until the top of the cookie starts to brown and the smell of pure happiness fills the air.
3. Eat your freshly made cookie.

I hope you love these frozen chocolate chip cookies! If you make it leave a comment! You can also share a photo on Instagram and tag #meganvskitchen. Enjoy!

Pin Recipe

This is a thick and crunchy cookie with a little bit of chew. This recipe makes 18-20 cookies dough balls that you freeze and bake whenever the craving hits.

• Total Time: 35 minutes
• Yield: 18-20 Cookies 1x

Ingredients

Units USM Scale 1x2x3x

• ½ cup unsalted butter softened
• ½ cup white sugar
• ½ cup brown sugar
• 1 egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• ¾ cup all-purpose flour
• 1 ½ cups old fashion oats- blended in a blender until the oats turn into flour (about 30 seconds)
• ½ teaspoon baking soda
• ½ teaspoon baking powder
• ½ teaspoon salt
• ¾ cup mini semi- chocolate chips *

Instructions

6. Fill your bag with the little balls of frozen happiness. Frozen cookie dough is good for 2 months, but I doubt I will last that long 🙂

Notes

I truly think mini chocolate chip cookies MAKES these cookies amazing. You are guaranteed the perfect ratio of cookie and chocolate in every bite. Get mini chocolate chips if you can. If not, regular sized chips work. (still use ¾ cup)
