I love cookie dough! So anytime I can eat it and feel re-fueled, I am all in. This is a simple recipe that can take 10 minutes to bust out and then you have protein balls ready to enjoy for the next few weeks.

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups organic cashew butter (it is expensive, but oh so worth it)

  • 1/2 cup honey/maple syrup/monk fruit sweetened syrup (pick a sweeter of your choice)

  • 1 cup coconut flour

  • 1 1/2 cup Lilly’s Dark Chocolate Stevia sweetened chips

  • Option to add chia seeds (I want to try this next time!)

Directions:

  1. In a bowl combine cashew butter, with sweetener.

  2. Add coconut flour and stir until the batter is thick enough that there is no dough sticking to the sides of the bowl.

  3. Add chocolate chips and stir evenly

  4. Make into desired size balls

  5. Place in freezer for 20 minutes and then store in an air tight container in the fridge or keep them in the freezer.

I am addicted and love to eat them as an afternoon snack or as a sweet treat with my coffee. They beat buying a gross bar or empty afternoon cookie.

Try them out and let me know how they go.
