These are a delicious and nutritious snack that's perfect for an energy boost. To create these delightful bites, start with your choice of almond butter or peanut butter, providing both a creamy texture and nutty richness. Add a generous 1/4 cup of vanilla protein for that extra punch of energy and protein.
For the perfect bite-sized texture, incorporate 1/3 cup of coconut flour and 1/4 cup of oats. These ingredients add both body and fiber to the bites.
A teaspoon of vanilla extract enhances the flavor, while 1/4 cup of almond or coconut milk adds moisture and consistency to the mixture.
Now, for the delightful cookie dough flavor, don't forget to toss in 1/4 cup of dark chocolate chips. They provide a sweet contrast to the nut butter and make these bites truly indulgent.
Roll the mixture into bite-sized portions, and you'll have Cookie Dough Energy Bites that are perfect for a quick snack or to satisfy your sweet cravings in a nutritious way. Enjoy the taste of cookie dough in every bite while staying energized!

Made 10 balls. Store in the fridge. Good for a week.

Am I reading it right, “14 (fourteen) cups of vanilla protein”?
