Ingredients
Scale
Base Ingredients:
- 1 scoop protein powder (vanilla or chocolate flavor)
- 1/2 cup (120 milliliters) almond flour
- 2 tablespoons (30 milliliters) nut butter (almond, peanut, or cashew)
Sweeteners and Flavor Enhancers:
- 2 tablespoons (30 milliliters) sugar-free sweetener (monk fruit, stevia, or erythritol)
- 1 teaspoon (5 milliliters) vanilla extract
- 1 pinch sea salt
Liquid and Additional Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons (30 milliliters) unsweetened almond milk (adjust as needed)
- 2 tablespoons (30 milliliters) chocolate chips (sugar-free or dark chocolate)
Instructions
- Gather a spacious mixing vessel and combine the protein powder, almond flour, and sugar-free sweetener, whisking thoroughly to eliminate any potential lumps and ensure uniform distribution.
- Introduce the nut butter, vanilla extract, and a measured quantity of almond milk into the dry ingredient mixture, stirring consistently until a cohesive dough emerges with a smooth, pliable consistency.
- If the mixture appears too dense, incrementally incorporate additional almond milk, blending carefully to maintain the desired texture.
- Delicately fold the chocolate chips into the protein-rich dough, using gentle folding motions to distribute them evenly throughout the mixture.
- Taste the dough and make subtle adjustments to sweetness or salt levels, ensuring a balanced flavor profile that suits personal preference.
- For immediate consumption, scoop the dough directly from the mixing bowl. Alternatively, transfer to a sealed container and refrigerate for a firmer, more chilled experience.
- When storing leftovers, select an airtight container and keep refrigerated to preserve texture and prevent moisture absorption, maintaining optimal quality for future enjoyment.
Notes
- Swap protein powders carefully, as different brands can drastically change texture and taste of the cookie dough.
- Use room temperature nut butter for smoother mixing and easier blending with other ingredients.
- Consider adding a pinch of salt to enhance the overall flavor profile and balance sweetness.
- Freeze individual portions in small containers for quick, portion-controlled protein-packed snacks anytime.
