Double Chocolate Protein Cookies

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking pan with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, add room temperature butter and sugar. With a hand mixer beat the sugar and butter until fully combined. This may take up to 5 minutes until you have a good combination of the two. Be sure there are no chunks of butter left.

Step 3

Add the egg and vanilla and mix until combined.

Step 4

Then, in the same bowl, add in the oat flour, baking soda, salt, cocoa and protein powder. Mix with a hand mixer to combine.

Step 5

Fold in the chocolate chips.

Step 6

Using a 1.5 Tbsp. cookie scoop, or 1.5 Tbsp., scoop batter into round 18 cookies and place on the parchment lined baking sheet approximately 2 inches apart.  Do not flatten. You will need to work in batches. Bake for 9-10 minutes. Remove and repeat with remaining batter.

Step 7

Allow cookies to cool on pan for 5 to 10 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack. If you want extra gewy cookies allow to cool for a few minutes and enjoy your double chocolate protein cookies immediately.
