Double Chocolate Protein Cookies

Double Chocolate Protein Cookies. Vegan, gluten free, and dairy free cookies that are high in protein and low in sugar!

Protein cookies have become extremely trendy in stores over the past year and I am hopping on the bandwagon with this homemade alternative!

These Double Chocolate Protein Cookies have a nice rich chocolate flavor, big and creamy chocolate chunks, and come in at just 140 calories each! They are easily made by putting all your ingredients in a blender (yes, your read that right, blender cookies) which makes for fast preparation and easy clean up.

Also, these only take like 7 minutes to bake so they are perfect for when you are HANGRY and just neeeed something chocolate.

These cookies are tasty straight up room temp but are also great reheated for a few seconds in the microwave….melts chocolate chunks…soft, gooey dough…ooh la la! And if you are feeling real crazy, douse them in some nut butter and thank me later! 😉

So what are you waiting for?? Get your oven preheated and get some Double Chocolate Protein Cookies on your plate!
