Before grilling, sprinkle a little of this seasoning salt over the meat or veggies. The recipe yields enough for storage and future use.

Tried it, and were some of the best cookies I’ve ever had. Will be using this recipe more often
These cookies are great for eating on the go or to stop you from being hungry. These certainly aren’t the type of cookies I get hungry to eat but they are perfect to eat on the way to school or work or even a late midnight snack to stop your hunger. **MAKE SURE YOU BUY PROTEIN POWDER THAT CAN HANDLE HEAT — Like GNC’s AMP: Amplified Wheybolic Extreme 60, preferably “unflavored” for baking**
used milk instead of water and only 1 cup of chocolate chips.
I made this with Peanut Butter powder instead of a true protien powder and a gluten free all purpose flour. It turned out really well. I was looking for a way to make a tasty kid and husband friendly protein snack. They all really liked it. Makes for easy breakfast. It did turn out cake like- which is probably do to a gluten free flour, either way we are saving the recipe to keep making and tinkering to our likes and tastes.
Added 1 cup quick oats….and a little cinnamon. The oats kept them moist and yummy. Kids love them! This one is a keeper!
Great recipe—added a cup if oatmeal and extra flour for condistency(used vanilla protein powder) yummy!
Thanks so much for the Recipe! Here are the changes I made that made it a bit healthier and they’re delicious. 1. Replaced 1/2 cup flour with 1 cup oats 2. Replaced white sugar with an extra 1/2 cup protein powder 3. Added half cup each of sunflower seeds and chopped peanuts THANKS AGAIN!
I used milk instead of water and they where the BEST COOKIES EVER! They where almost like a cake or a bread and only a hint of peanut butter. Plus they where easy to make. This is my go-to recipe now for cookies.
THESE ARE AMAZING! I did make some changes though…. I added an additional 1/2 cup of flour so I could substitute agave nectar for the white sugar, used egg replacer instead of eggs, used vegan chocolate chips, and mashed a banana into the mix. I will be making them again! Mmmm.
These came out great. I substituted the all-purpose flour with oat flour (just blended up 1 1/2 cups old fashion oats) and milk instead of water. Would probably go for a tasteless protein powder next time.
Tasty, after a few changes… I only used 2 eggs, which helps make them less cake-like. Also used more peanut butter and milk instead of water as others did. I only used a cup of flour and added 3/4 cup of oatmeal. Boyfriend approves!
Very good! Definitely a cakey cookie, but that’s not terrible. I had vanilla protein powder, so I left out the extract. Next time I’ll add more chocolate chips, but otherwise I thought they were great. Note: the batter is very soft, but don’t be alarmed. Just leave a lot of room for spreading. These also make great ice cream sandwiches!
I made a several alterations here, ok, so maybe its a totally new recipe? LOL – no butter, ONLY peanut butter, only 1 C brown sugar, no white sugar, no water instead I put 1/3 cup coconut milk and i replaced 1/2 cup flour with coconut flour, sprayed a 9×13 cake pan and spread it out like brownie dough. oh, i skipped the chocolate chips, cuz i later cut the “cake” into strips and dipped in melted choclate like biscotti… the coconut flour will absorb your liquid so donT be worried that the batter is too runny… and i baked at 350 for 30 minutes. If you donT want it like biscotti, bake for only 25 minutes… Delicious!!
I used whole wheat flour and Splenda instead of white sugar and they were still tasty! I will definitely make these again and next time I’ll follow another reviewer’s tip and use milk instead of water.
I loved this! I used milk as suggested and because of the comments about the consistency of the cookies, i.e. cake like, I pressed the dough into a 9 x 13 pan. The came out like brownies and were wonderful. I also used splenda brown sugar mix and regular spenda in place of the sugar. I used butter flavored Pam to coat the pan.
The flavor was great!! The consistency was “cake-like,” so I think I’ll try them as cupcakes.
This cookie is great- I also added a bit more peanut butter and walnuts. Great treat with added protein- thanks for the recipe!
Just make sure that your protein powder is heat stable, as most aren’t. If the protein powder isn’t heat stable, the protein will break down & you won’t be getting the full amount of added protein. Optimal Nutrition makes a heat stable protein called Any Whey. It is heat stable up to 450 degrees. I use it to make my own protein bars.
Wonderfully soft cookies. I used chocolate protein powder and these turned out awesome!
I used chocolate protein powder and a little extra peanut butter, and milk instead of water. I added rum-soaked raisins to the mix and made the cookies double-sized. A couple that were slightly undercooked were moist in the center, others were more cake-like. I recommend the moist ones, and next time I want to use vanilla protein powder and white chocolate chips!
I knocked off one star, because of these cookies being dry. Otherwise, they were great tasting. I like this type of thing in the morning(not a eggs, bacon or cereal person) and these are a way of getting my protein. Will try to tweak this recipe, since I like it so much.
