halloween protein cookies
while these may look spooky, the ingredients in these halloween protein cookies are anything but scary 👻
these mini treats start with my classic grain-free cookie base—high protein, sugar-free, & totally grain-free.
then comes the fun part: a festive takeover with bats & spiders made from BTR nation almond butter cups, fit joy pretzels, & catalina crunch sandwich cookies—spooky, fun, & better-for-you! 🦇🕸️
