Not only are these cookies cute, they're also healthy and delicious! I used my favorite protein powder to make the cream filling.

Cookies (makes 20):
1 cup peanut butter
1 cup granular sweetener
1 egg

Stir together until combined. Scoop 1 tbsp balls onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Use a fork to put a crisscross pattern on the top of each cookie. Sprinkle with flaked sea salt if desired. Bake at 350 degrees for 12 to 15 minutes, or until slightly crispy around the edges. Cool completely on a wire rack.

Cream filling:
4 tbsp softened butter
2 tbsp peanut butter
1 serving Protein Milkshake
1 tsp cocoa powder
1 tsp heavy cream
¼ tsp vanilla extract

Cream softened butter with mixer until fluffy. Blend in the peanut butter. Add remaining ingredients and mix until creamy & fluffy.

Once cookies are completely cooled, flip cookies over and scoop a little filling onto 10 of the cookies, and top with the other 10 cookies. Roll-in sprinkles or finely chopped nuts if desired.

👉 Here's why I love Protein Milkshake powder ~ It has a nice, clean taste and it's never gritty. I love that I can drink it like a straight-up protein shake mixed with almond milk, or even use it to make desserts, like these peanut butter sandwich cookies!

The ingredients are clean and they're perfectly sweetened with organic monkfruit and stevia. 100% keto-friendly!
