Steps

  1. In a medium bowl, mix the Greek yogurt, peanut butter, softened butter, honey, 3 scoops of vanilla protein powder, oat flour, vanilla, and salt until a thick dough forms.

  2. Gently fold in the mini chocolate chips into the base mixture.

  3. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper and press the base mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom of the pan.

  4. In a blender, combine the cottage cheese, light cream cheese, maple syrup, 1 scoop of protein powder, spirulina, vanilla, and cake-batter extract (if using).

  5. Blend the frosting ingredients until the mixture is very smooth and has a uniform blue color.

  6. Pour the blended frosting over the base in the loaf pan and spread it into an even layer.

  7. Break up one sandwich cookie and sprinkle the pieces over the top of the frosting.

  8. Place the pan in the freezer for 30 to 60 minutes until set.

  9. Remove from the freezer and let thaw for about 10 minutes before slicing into 7 bars.
