Hello chocolate lovers! This is a healthy version of Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough and Cheesecake combined. I made this recipe with whole, natural ingredients!

Yes, this is still a treat but it is a healthy treat that your body will know how to process. Not only that, this recipe contains healthy fats, lots of fiber, protein, vitamins and minerals. I did use some dark chocolate in this recipe but sparingly.

Keep in mind that the recommended portions of these treats are small to keep you on tract with your weight loss or lean body goals. Yes you can have a treat and still reach your physique goals!

David, my kitchen taste-tester, said that these are now his all-time favourite DAMY Treat! And believe me, he has tasted a lot of treats out of this kitchen!
