These Vegan Dark Chocolate Chunk Protein Cookie Cakes are the dreamiest gluten-free nutritious cookie!
They are HERE! The Vegan Dark Chocolate Chunk Protein Cookie Cakes are officially on the blog.
I did a little teaser of these cookies on stories a couple weeks ago and you guys went crazy! Likely because I posted them daily after dinner since I could not stop eating them. These cookies are hands down my favorite cookie recipe on the blog right now. They are so flavorful, easy and don’t leave me on a sugar high afterwards.
I dipped one too many into REBBL after dinner (kidding, never too many of these cookies) and instantly fell in love.
I also use REBBL in the cookie recipe itself and dipping these soft cake-like vegan cookies was the ultimate way to close out the day.
REBBL is truly one of my favorite products. This doesn’t come as much of a surprise to you guys considering I post about them all the time and have made so many recipes featuring their adaptogenic elixirs and protein beverages. REBBL is a game changing product that is making a difference by taking a stand against human trafficking, while providing consumers with coconut milk-based, creamy beverages.
I love the Reishi Chocolate and Protein varieties the most in terms of drinking and baking. Jord loves the Maca Cold Brew and the Protein varieties too. They also have Golden Milk and Matcha elixirs so if you are a fan of crazy cool colored beverages, I cannot recommend them enough!
By using REBBL Dark Chocolate Protein in this recipe, it added some additional protein to these cookies and a ton of flavor. You will also need some oat flour (you can use all purpose or spelt too!) as well as a protein powder of your choice to add. If you don’t have any protein powder, feel free to add more flour but I loved adding it to the cookies
These Vegan Dark Chocolate Chunk Protein Cookie Cakes are gluten-free, soft, chewy and honestly taste amazing both cold and warm. I love keeping my desserts in the freezer but I also do microwave cookies before eating sometimes too. Anyone else like cold desserts?! Just me? Ok, great..

Hi Rachel! this recipe sounds like an amazing low glycemic treat for my nighttime cravings! would it be possible to sub almond flour for the spelt or oat flour? Thank you!
Rachel

heather

Kathryn
Which flavor protein powder?
Rachel
any works! i love the vanilla and chocolate
Josie Walter
These are a pretty good alternative to a protein bar! Don’t expect something comparable to the cookie from your local bakery, but a pretty yummy treat – especially considering how healthy they are (I made 18 mini cookies and my rough calculations have them at roughly 4g per cookie!!!).
Meghan
Hi Rachael, About how many calories per cookie? Is a serving one? Thanks!
