Ingredients

    4 teaspoons butter substitute
    2 scoops vanilla or chocolate whey protein powder, 2/3 cup
    8 teaspoons granular Splenda or equivalent liquid Splenda
    About 3 teaspoons water, or as needed


Directions

In a small microwaveable bowl, heat the butter in the microwave about 20 seconds or until melted. If you're using liquid Splenda, mix it into the melted butter now. Stir in the whey powder and granular Splenda as well as you can. It will be very dry. Gradually add some water, about 1/8 teaspoon at a time, just until you can form the mixture into a ball that isn't too sticky to handle. Keep the dough ball in the bowl and microwave on HIGH 15-30 seconds or until the dough puffs up. Don't over cook it or it will come out very dry. In my microwave it takes about 15 seconds or so. Cool and eat.
If you microwave the cookie for about 15 seconds you'll get a more tender, chewy cookie but it won't be very big. Microwaving it for closer to 30 seconds causes the dough to puff up almost twice as much but the cookie will be pretty dry and crumbly. The photo above shows a 15 second cookie and the photo below is how they look after 25-30 seconds of cooking.

    None of the protein powders I have used are 0 carbs and most are 100+ calories per scoop - just wondered how you got your calorie/protein/carb count - 3/1/13

    AAGJE1949, Look for Nectar protein powder. You can find it at the vitamin shoppe and online, they also have sample pouches for the vanilla and chocolate truffle flavors for sure. I LOVE this stuff. I use unsweetened vanilla almond milk for these shakes and they are actually really good. 0 Carbs. - 6/28/13

    I have just started doing protein shakes and they are zero carbs and gluten free. (Syntrax- Nectar) They have about 30 different flavors. - 3/27/13

    Bad
    How can it have 0 carbs when the whey powder has 6 grams per scoop? - 2/25/17

    Very Good
    Made the recipe and ran the ingredients thru the recipe calculator. Mine came came out at 71 calories. Cookies turned out very dry, but it helped me eat slowly and consume fluid. I have never eaten a cookie slowly before in my life😊 Thanks for sharing. - 5/11/16

    Good
    Good for a chocolate fix but they definitely taste diety to me.... such a kewl idea tho. I was amazed when it started puffing out like that. Mine also came out greasy - is that normal? I used butter sub and half the splenda. - 8/4/12
