This delicious Confetti Protein Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe is brought to you by our friend Courtney at Peace of GF Cake. These cookies are a great Paleo, grain-free treat for any time of day.
I think I could easily devour the entire batch of these cookies, EASY. But I wouldn’t feel too bad because they are grain free, filled with protein, and made with clean ingredients. One of my favorite clean ingredients, is the Smooth Vanilla Clean Lean Protein. It’s gluten free, vegan, soy free, GMO-free and made of only 3 ingredients. Plus, you can’t beat the amazing flavor! Definitely my go-to addition to smoothies and baked-goods.
