Enjoying Food: Protein Cookie Dough

Today is a special day! I don't usually do this, but I am posting a GUEST RECIPE! This recipe comes from my dear friend Theresa (IG: @Baking_And_Bikinis - you MUST follow her, amazing IIFYM account and such an awesome person)! I only do this if I think a recipe is totally life-altering and this one is! Thank you so much to Theresa for being today's guest macro chef! You rock!

This cookie dough is seriously AMAZING. The taste and consistency is spot on with the real thing, but way better macros and it makes for an awesome pre or post workout treat! I mean, why drink a protein shake when you can eat it as cookie dough right??

PROTEIN COOKIE DOUGH
392 kcal -- 12F/38C/33P

Ingredients:
- 1 scoop protein powder (I used trutein cinnabun)
- 2 tbsp (14g) coconut flour
- 2 tbsp (12g) PB2
- 2 tbsp (70g) mini chocolate chips
-  stevia to taste
- 2 tbsp apple sauce or pumpkin
- 2 tbsp almond milk or cashew milk

Directions:
1. Place all ingredients in a bowl except for almond milk and apple sauce/pumpkin.
2. Place apple sauce/pumpkin and almond milk in a separate small bowl and stir.
3. GENTLY mix the liquid mixture (using your hands may be easier than a spoon because it will become a dough) into the dry ingredients until it becomes a dough consistency. You may need to add slightly more apple sauce/pumpkin and almond milk mixture depending on the type of protein powder you use.
4. Form dough into a ball (or mini-balls), wrap it with saran wrap, and refrigerate 6 hours. Enjoy!
