Protein Chocolate Chip Cookies
Brown butter, crackly edges, gooey middles. 11g protein.
Big, soft-centered chocolate chip cookies with brown butter, crackly golden edges and melty chip puddles, and enough whey that one actually counts. Protein cookies fail in two ways, flat or dry, and this recipe fixes both: a 30-minute chill stops the spread, and pulling them while the centers still look underdone keeps them soft for days.
