Notes
I used Lilly's No Sugar Added Chocolate Chips.
Depending on the type of protein powder you use, you may need to add almond milk to thin it out or more almond flour to thicken it. I used a plant based protein that soaks up more moisture as compared to a whey based protein.
Store the cookies inside an airtight container up to 3 days or in the fridge up to 7 days.
For longer storage, place inside a freezer container up to 3 months.
