Think of them as your sweet, high-protein sidekick for post-workout recovery or whenever that sweet tooth calls.

Why These Cookies Are a Serious Win

• High in protein: Each batch is loaded with whey isolate, making these cookies more than just a sugar fix.
• Clean ingredients: No refined grains, just almond flour, clean whey, and natural mix-ins.
• Lactose-friendly: Naked’s whey isolate has only ~0.1 g of lactose, reducing the risk of digestive discomfort.
• Sugar-free sweetness: Swap in a sugar-free sweetener and enjoy that bakery flavor without overloading on sugar.

A Quick Look at Naked Nutrition’s Vanilla Whey Isolate

Before we dive fully into cookie mode, let’s talk about the MVP protein powder here: Naked Whey Isolate (Vanilla, 2 lb)

• Sourced from premium farms: The whey comes from grass- or pasture-fed cows in New Zealand, Ireland, and the UK.
• Ultra-pure formula: Only four ingredients, and none of them are artificial.
• Low in lactose: With just ~0.1 g per serving, it’s a gentler choice for people who are sensitive to dairy.
• Protein-packed: A full serving provides ~30g of pure whey isolate.
• Clean and tested: It’s gluten-free, soy-free, and undergoes third-party verification for quality.

All that to say, it’s not just “any protein powder.” This is the kind of clean, minimal-ingredient whey that makes sense in a recipe you want to feel good about.

Tips & Tweaks for Maximum Deliciousness

• Make them extra chewy: Slightly underbake, then let them set as they cool.
• Double the batch: These store well in an airtight container, making them perfect for breakfast, snacks, or post-workout fuel.
• Flavor swap: If white chocolate isn’t your vibe, dark chocolate or peanut butter chips work beautifully.
