Who would have ever thought that all those years eating cookie dough from the bowl as a kid I would still be eating cookie dough well into my adult years! Maybe not the same version but this protein-packed edible cookie dough recipe tastes almost too good to be healthy!

And… you only need a bowl, spoon and a handful of ingredients! A satisfying snack made in about 2 minutes! Hell ya!

For this recipe, I like to use Naked Casein because it is well… naked! No additives, no artificial sweeteners just 1 ingredient – Micellar Casein! And because this protein powder is so clean it is almost flavourless which makes it so easy to use in recipes like this high protein edible cookie dough for one.

What is micellar Casein powder?

Casein is a slow-digesting protein that helps you stay full longer. When taken before bed, casein protein supports the muscle recovery process throughout the night. Naked Casein has only one ingredient: Micellar casein sourced from US dairy farms.

Micellar casein is a complete protein and the purest form of casein protein with having the least amount of processing. Its slow digestion process helps sustain energy but also provides a slow-release of all essential amino acids to repair and build muscle tissue throughout the day or during rest.

What is the difference between casein & Whey?

Casein and whey are proteins are both by-products of cheese production, but they offer different benefits. Whey is a fast-absorbing protein that is ideal to consume just after a workout to fuel your body with quick protein. Casein is a slow-absorbing protein that is better for consuming before bed to gradually provide your body with amino acids. Mid-afternoon is also a great time to consume it because it gives you a steady source of energy to get you through to the end and over the mid-day slump.

What makes this recipe great?

• Only a few ingredients are required
• Quick to make in about 2 minutes

• Keeps me feeling satisfied because of the slow-digesting micellar casein protein
• Kills my sweet tooth because – chocolate chips and cookie dough tasting batter! Enough said.
