Double Chocolate Cookies

I love how many people have been making my Soft Chocolate Chip Cookies! I cannot tell you how much I enjoy seeing people post a beautiful plate of cookies on social media after trying my recipe

Seeing my cookies everywhere was making me crave a plate! I decided to mix it up a little and use my original recipe to make some Double Chocolate Cookies!
Oh boy did they turn out good!

You will need the following...
MTS Chocolate Whey, canned pumpkin, canned white beans, egg substitute, vanilla, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking powder, white chocolate chips, and sweetener of choice.

If you want to try baking with MTS Whey, order here!
Use code KH30 to save 30%

Drain and rinse your beans first.
Add beans, pumpkin, egg, and vanilla to a blender or food processor and puree smooth. 

If you need to, add a little milk or more egg to get it all blended. 
Does it look like chocolate cookie dough yet? No...ok...

Mix in the protein powder, cocoa, baking powder, and sweetener. 
Be sure to use cute little portioning bowls so you feel like you have your own cooking show!

Now THAT looks like chocolate cookie dough!!
Add in your white chocolate chips.  You can add a lot...or a little...I like a lot!

The batter will be pretty wet and sticky so just do drop cookies.  
I highly recommend using a baking mat or parchment paper. 

Bake at 350 for about 10 minutes and wait for the chocolatey goodness!
Heaven on a plate!! 

Each cookie is only 35 calories so feel free to eat more than one!
In fact, the whole plate is only 425 calories! You are also getting 34 grams of protein.  

Healthy AND delicious!! Yes, it is possible!
In case you are skeptical, I promise you cannot taste the beans or the pumpkin.  All you will taste is chocolate amazingness!

Peanut Butter Marshmallow Cookies

We all love peanut butter right?! Well, unless you are allergic to it...In that case I am really, REALLY sorry...
I have been very lucky to have some MTS Peanut Butter Fluff protein powder sent to me by Marc Lobliner, owner of MTS Nutrition.  He is supplying me with protein powder to use in my recipes and for my own personal use! Awesomeness!! As soon as I got the huge tub of protein, my brain starting going crazy thinking of all the delicious things I could make with such a unique flavor!
I knew right away that I was going to be using this in some protein cookies!!
Yea, they turned out amazing!! If you don't have any MTS peanut butter fluff protein powder go buy some now and then come back and make these cookies.  You can order it here!! 

If you don't have the peanut butter protein, it's ok, you can still kinda make these...they just might not be quite as good...I will go over substitutions shortly.
You will need peanut butter fluff protein powder, canned pumpkin, egg substitute, sugar free fat free vanilla pudding mix, baking powder, vanilla, sweetener if you like, and marshmallows!!

I came across these super fun Mallow Bits at Target.  They are like the little crunchy pieces you get in  those packets of hot cocoa.  
If you don't have these, no worries! You can just use mini marshmallows.  Also, if you don't have peanut butter fluff protein powder, you can use vanilla or even chocolate and your cookies just won't be peanut buttery.  They will still be very tasty though!! 

Very simple instructions here.  Throw all the ingredients into one bowl and mix with a spoon!
Told ya it was simple... 

I highly recommend using parchment paper or a baking mat for these cookies.  If you don't have either I would at least use a generous spritz of non stick spray.  

Just drop the dough onto the cookie sheet.  I got 8 cookies.  
You can make them as big or as small as you want.  

Keep an eye on them the first time you bake them.  Mine took about 12 minutes at 350.
These are super soft and moist cookies and it would be a shame if you burnt them :(

I wish computer screens were scratch and sniff because these smelled amazing!! My whole house smelled like sweet peanut butter wonderfulness! 
I may have forgot to mention it...but you can eat the whole batch yourself! Without any guilt!

That's because all 8 cookies are only 237 calories! 
They are also very low fat and very high protein! I am having this batch for breakfast tomorrow! I can't wait!

If you wanted to share, each cookie little bit of heaven is only 30 calories.
But let's be honest...you won't be able to stop after just one...and there is absolutely no need to!!
Enjoy!
