Double Chocolate Chip Protein Cookies

A little twist on my traditional chocolate chip protein cookies.  These are also super cute if you wanted to add in a little red & green sprinkles on the top before baking to make them extra festive!

Making a holiday festive cookie that is also healthier is a win win and no one will know they are protein cookies they taste so good.  These are perfect for office parties and family get togethers.  Besides that……Santa told me he wants these cookies from you this year and you can’t disappoint the big guy!
