Notes

Any nut butter will work for the cookie dough balls. So, use what you have on hand or try new nut butters to switch up the flavor!
You can eat this cookie dough as-is off a spoon, rolled into bites/balls, or firm it up in the fridge for pop-in-your-mouth snacks.
The type of protein powder you choose will affect the texture and the flavor of the recipe. See the notes in the blog post on how to adjust the recipe based on the protein powder you're using.
