Protein Snickerdoodle Cookies
Snickerdoodles. My all-time favorite cookie. The softness, the sweetness, and the cinnamon – it’s irresistible. I daydream about these bad boys more often then I probably should. One of my favorites are the Starbucks Snickerdoodle Cookie but with macros at 53C/18F/4P – I don’t eat them too often. So, I thought of an alternative. Don’t get me wrong, I have no problem having an old fashioned snickerdoodle every once and a while but I would much rather make a healthier version and get to eat it them more frequently, right? Not to mention the macros for these cookies are - 5C/2F/6P per cookie!!!
Get ready to be amazed. These are just as fluffy. Just as soft and just as delicious. Believe me, these don’t make like an alternative - I even fooled my dad into thinking they were the real deal. So, try them out and tell me what you guys think.
