the texture? think velvety smooth with just the right amount of fudginess and stickiness to make every bite a heavenly experience.
how to make it:
creating this cookie dough treat is easier than you think.

add dairy-free milk to achieve the perfect texture.
fold in some unsweetened chocolate chips for an extra burst of flavor. voila!

options to explore:
while this recipe is already a winner, there’s always room for experimentation.
feel free to customize your brownie batter cookie dough by adding chopped nuts, shredded coconut, or a hint of espresso powder for a mocha twist.
you can also adjust the sweetness level by adding more or less medjool dates or incorporating a drizzle of maple syrup.

protein content and nutritional benefits:
not only is this brownie batter cookie dough a treat, but it’s also a nutritional powerhouse.
packed with protein from the protein powder and almond butter, it’s perfect for refueling after a workout or as a satisfying snack to keep you energized throughout the day.

Just made the Five Minute Brownie Batter Protein Dough. It is SO good & so easy to make. I didn’t even add the chocolate chips, just some chopped walnuts. Delicious!
isn’t it the best?! thanks Frankie 🙂
Thank you! What would the macros breakdown be?
hi! i don’t breakdown macros but lots of apps you can plug the ingredients into!:)
How can I make this without protein powder? I love your recipes but don’t use protein powder. Is there a blanket replacement?
hi! you can try oat flour but there will be less flavor and sweetness! you also may have to adjust the amounts 🙂
Hi! I can’t wait to try this! Will it work with other types of dates?? Thanks!
yes but the softer and gooey-er the better! 🙂 you may just have a hard time blending them!
This is so good! I used peanut butter protein powder & sugar free peanut butter chips.. OMG! I’m going to make a batch during meal prep just to keep in my fridge every week.. works to keep that sugar craving at bay and it only take a little to satisfy my chocolate need.
love love love to hear it, Victoria!
Wow, this was remarkable. I just made it!! I also added about 1T freeze-dried coffee and a T brown sugar. Added both white and chocolate Lily’s chips. I had to roll these into balls and refrigerate it or I would of eaten them all! Hahaa They are that good! Thank you for this healthy high protein treat.. I’m definitely going to keep this and make again… Try this guy’s you’ll love it!!!!!
aw i am so happy that you loved it!! thanks so much, Patricia 🙂
Tried this last night it’s so good tastes exactly like a brownie, i used vanilla pea protein powder and tasted great still. Also didn’t leave me feeling sluggish and bloated the next day. Thanks Willow 🙏🏻
