Espresso Cookies
Your favorite afternoon "pick me up" in cookie form!
Ingredients
Cookies
- ¼ cup Butter melted
- 1 cup Truvia or your favorite granulated sugar alternative
- 2 Eggs
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
- 1 cup Protein Powder I used Coffee flavor but Vanilla would work too
- 1 tsp Coffee Grounds
- 1 Tbsp Cocoa Powder
- 1 tsp Baking Powder
Icing (optional but highly recommended)
- 1 Tbsp Butter melted
- ½ cup Powdered Truvia or your favorite powdered sugar substitute
- 1 Tbsp Almond Milk more if needed
Instructions
Cookies
- Preheat oven to 350℉
- In a medium sized bowl, mix together Butter, Truvia, Eggs, and Vanilla until combined.
- On top of wet mixture, add Protein Powder, Coffee Grounds, Cocoa Powder, and Baking Powder. Mix until combined.
- Scoop TBSP sized dough balls onto prepped cookie sheet.
- Bake cookies for 8-10 minutes
Icing (optional but highly recommended)
- In small bowl, mix together butter and powdered truvia.
- Add Almond Milk one TBSP at a time until desired consistency is reached. I like mine to be thin so I could drizzle it over top but a thicker icing plopped on top would be delicious as well!
- Enjoy!
