In a large mixing bowl, combine the whey protein powder, rolled oats, and a pinch of salt. Stir to distribute the dry ingredients evenly.
In a microwave-safe bowl, gently heat the peanut butter and honey (or maple syrup) in 15-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth and well combined. Be careful not to overheat.
Add the warmed peanut butter and honey mixture to the dry ingredients. Stir until partially combined.
Slowly add the almond milk and vanilla extract to the mixture. Stir until the dough comes together and is slightly sticky but manageable.
Fold in the dark chocolate chips, if using.
Using your hands, scoop out approximately 2 tablespoons of dough and roll it into a ball. Flatten slightly to form a cookie shape. Repeat for the remaining dough.
Line a tray or plate with parchment paper and place the shaped cookies on it. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to set.
Store the cookies in an airtight container in the fridge for up to one week or freeze for longer storage.
