Introduction

This is a sugar-free alternative for anyone that needs to get in extra protein and hates those horrible protein bars that taste like sweet dirt. These aren't your standard, super-moist, chewy cookies, but they satisfy the need to crunch and give you a nice punch of protein.

For those of you that are great cooks, pls feel free to play with this and make suggestions.
