Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup whey protein powder, vanilla flavor
- 0.5 cup dark chocolate chips
- 0.5 cup white chocolate chips
- 0.25 cup dark chocolate, melted (for stripes)
- 0.25 cup white chocolate, melted (for stripes)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy.
Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until the wet ingredients are well combined.
In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt, and whey protein powder.
Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing just until incorporated.
Fold in the dark chocolate chips and white chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
Scoop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches (5 cm) between each cookie to allow for spreading.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once the cookies are cool, drizzle the melted dark and white chocolate over the tops of the cookies to create a striped pattern. Let the chocolate set before serving.
