@themacroexperiment’s “Deep Dish Chocolate Chip Cookie” [180kcal, 15g protein]

Her original recipe:


Here’s how mine turned out:

Review

  • What I did: Made it exactly to the gram but used 1/3rd of the chocolate listed bc it covered the entire surface already. Also just piled it on a cookie sheet instead of putting it in a dish (hoping it’d be more cookie than cake-like lol)
  • Supposedly 180kcal, 15g protein, but mine tallied to 183kcal, 16.3g protein
  • ➕ Super easy to make, 1 bowl 1 spoon
  • ➕ Tastes nice
  • ➕ V sweet, good amount of choc
  • ➕ Looks quite pretty
  • ➖ Texture— Dry. I’m guessing it’s the coconut flour and whey, which both tend to be drying
  • ➖ Texture— Yet also too soft and cake like, definitely not a cookie texture (if you think of it as protein cake it might manage expectations better)

👉Verdict:

  • ❌ Probably won’t make again
  • Not because it was bad, but just bc there are better alternatives for the size, cals & protein. Ymmv though!
