It’s not easy keeping up a high-protein diet, especially when you’re craving a sweet snack every day at 1:32 pm. Why is that time oddly specific? I have a relentless post-workout sweet tooth, okay? 

But seriously, these truffles are made by mixing cookie dough and rolling it into ،, dipping them in c،colate, and freezing them until solid. Simple with no special equipment necessary… just delicious.

To make these cookie dough protein truffles, you’ll need some drippy all-natural cashew ،er. This is important as it will provide the perfect consistency for the cookie dough. You’ll also need vanilla protein powder. We like the Garden of Life ،nd, which is vegan and has minimal ingredients. 

To give these energy ، a bit of crunch, we added quick-cooking oats to the ،memade cookie dough, as well as pure maple syrup for some natural sweetness. This recipe uses two different kinds of c،colate chips: mini c،colate chips for the dough and semi-sweet to melt and dip the truffles in.
