Cookies and Cream Protein Bar
The distinctive color and flavor of these bars comes from black cocoa, which is reminiscent of Oreo cookies and studded with white chocolate for a healthy yet indulgent treat.

Calories: 264kcal
Ingredients
- 1 cup egg white protein powder sugar free vanilla flavored
- 4 tablespoons collagen peptides optional
- 1 1/2 cups almond flour
- 1/3 cup black cocoa
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/3 cup monk fruit powdered, or
- 1/2 teaspoon stevia glycerite or more, to taste
- 1/4 cup butter melted, or butter flavored coconut oil for dairy free
- 3 tablespoons water
- 1/2 cup sugar-free white chocolate chips or chopped, such as Lily’s, make your own for dairy-free
Instructions
- Combine protein powder, collagen, almond flour, cocoa, sweetener, and salt in a food processor.
- In a small bowl, stir together the butter and water.
- With the food processor running, stream the butter mixture in. Process until the batter comes together in a large ball. Add water a tablespoon at a time and process well to ensure it is incorporated before adding more if it seems too dry. Knead in the chocolate.
- Press into an 8×8-inch pan lined with parchment or plastic wrap.
- Refrigerate until cool and set, about an hour, slice into 12 bars and wrap individually with parchment paper. Store in the refrigerator until eating as they can spoil. These can be taken for travel and will not melt although they will get quite soft and tacky when warm.
