Edible Protein Cookie Dough Recipe

This edible protein cookie dough recipe is made with creamy nut butter, protein powder and whole oats and you can eat it with a spoon!

One of my biggest weaknesses is raw cookie dough.  It’s like heaven on a spoon and will derail your healthy eating plan with only a few big bites (insert sad face).  Cookies rarely make it to the baking sheet in this house.  Just gimme the dough!  

However, you can make your own delicious edible protein cookie dough recipe that is rich and indulgent without the refined sugar load and copious amount of saturated fat.  Yay for healthier substitutions!!!!   Refined sugar and saturated fat are a toxic combination for the waistline.

Just look at that healthier deliciousness……
