chocolate covered strawberry protein cookies
chocolate covered strawberries are beautiful… but put that idea into a cookie & it’s game over. 😌🍫🍓✨
this is my better-for-you, protein-packed take on a crumbl-style cookie — rich, fudgy chocolate protein cookies topped with a creamy strawberry buttercream made with smash food's strawberry superfood jam + prime protein strawberry protein powder + a pinch of beet powder for that extra pink glow!
bakery-style, super soft, & loaded with that chocolate + strawberry magic in every bite — just with more protein & fiber, & no sugar or gluten. 💥
