Protein cookies (DIY).
A boxmate of
mine shared her recipe of these cookies with me & ever since then I’ve had a
serious problem – I make them almost every night after dinner. I’ve
grown to love them just as much as I love my breakfast each morning.
Recipe:
1 scoop of
protein (I prefer chocolate flavor)
1-2 tbsps. of
all natural nut butter (I use almond butter & only 1 tbsp.)
½ tsp. baking
powder
*Mix all 3
together, then add 1 tbsp. of water at a time until mixture reaches a cookie
dough consistency (I use 4 tbsps.)
Scoop 1 tbsp.
of mixture & place onto cookie sheet
Bake at 350
degrees for 12 minutes (my oven runs hot so I bake mine at 325 degrees for 10
minutes)
**I also shake some Chocolate
Donut seasoning on top of my cookies for a little extra sweetness (see info below).
Lenny & Larry’s The Complete Cookie.
I’ve only
tried these cookies through a co-worker & a friend of mine who were kind
enough to share theirs with me. =) The flavors I’ve tried are Snickerdoodle
& Peanut Butter – both were awesome. You’ll notice on their website that they
don’t just sell cookies, they also have “muscle muffins” and “muscle brownies”
available for purchase – I haven’t tried those. You can also find these at
Vitamin Shoppe.

These were
included in our gift bags for a local competition and for weeks they sat in my
pantry. I wasn’t too excited about them until one Sunday afternoon I was
looking for a snack & picked them up. They were so good! Like good to the
point that I was sad when I finished the snack size bag. I looked them up
online to find out more info & then was told that they were sold locally at
food stores. Unfortunately, the stores that I’ve tried close to me don’t carry
them, i.e., Harris Teeter & Giant. Apparently the Wegman’s in Lansdowne
carries them but I haven’t made my way out there yet. Pretty bummed they aren’t
just down the street from me so I’ll probably be ordering these online.
The flavor that was in my gift
bag was maple sugar & sea salt – two thumbs up!
Flavorgod Chocolate Donut Seasoning

If you follow
me on Instagram or Facebook you know that I’ve been using Flavorgod for quite
some time now. Not only do I use them for snacking, I also use them on all of
my meats & veggies during meal prep for the week. It’s hard to pass up a
seasoning that has no sodium & only 1g of sugar.
I’ve had this
Chocolate Donut seasoning on fruit (i.e., bananas, strawberries), yogurt & like
I said above, I sprinkle them on top of my protein cookies. My collection also consists
of Gingerbread Cookie and Pumpkin Pie seasoning but the Chocolate Donut is by
far my favorite.
Enjoy!
