Protein Chocolate Chip Cookies

I have been trying forever to make a tasty, healthy chocolate chip cookie. They are my absolute weakness! These cookies are soft and packed with chocolate. You can make them chocolate chocolate cookies with chocolate protein powder or keep them the way they are with vanilla!  These cookies are sure to satisfy your chocolate cravings and keep you full at the same. Have them with a tall glass of unsweetened vanilla almond milk and enjoy! :)




Ingredients:

3/5 cup Quaker Quick Oats
1/4 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 cup (2 scoops) vanilla protein powder
4 tablespoons Land O Lakes light butter, melted
2 tablespoons unsweetened applesauce
4 packets of Stevia
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 egg white
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 cup mini dark chocolate chips

 To Prepare:
 
1. Preheat oven to 350 F. In a small bowl, melt 4 tablespoons of butter in the microwave for 20 seconds. Mix in 2 table spoons of unsweetened applesauce and 4 Stevia packets. Add vanilla extract and egg white, mix and set aside.
2. Place 3/4 cups quick oats in food processor and blend until fine powder. In a medium bowl, add ground oats, whole wheat flour and protein powder. Mix in baking powder, baking soda, and salt. 
3. Slowly mix the wet ingredients into the dry until a dough is formed. Fold in the chocolate chips.
