Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 cup protein powder (any preferred flavor)
- 1 can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
- 1/2 cup peanut butter or your favorite nut/seed butter
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- Sweetener of choice, adjusted to taste
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips (regular or sugar-free)
Instructions
- Choose your sweetener amount based on preference and protein powder sweetness. If using an unsweetened powder, you may want a bit more sweetener. Granulated, powdered, or liquid options all work well.
- Add the chickpeas, protein powder, nut or seed butter, salt, vanilla, and sweetener to a food processor.
- Blend until the mixture becomes completely smooth and dough-like. If the texture feels too thick or dry, add a splash of milk (any variety) and blend again until creamy.
- Transfer the mixture to a bowl and fold in the chocolate chips.
- Taste and adjust sweetness or salt if needed. Serve immediately or chill for a firmer cookie-dough texture.
- Enjoy as a dip with fruit, spread on toast, or straight from the spoon for a quick protein boost.
