Ingredients

  • 2 cups rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup vanilla protein powder
  • 1 cup all-natural drippy peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup water + 2 tablespoons*
  • 1/3 cup white chocolate

Instructions

  • Place all ingredients into a high-speed blender.
  • Blend on high for 2-3 minutes, stopping to scrape the sides as needed.
  • Add more water by the tablespoon as needed in order to form a doughy ball. The goal here is for the cookies to hold shape, but to be soft enough to press your thumb into for the thumbprint.
  • Once you've gotten the desired texture, use a 1.5-tablespoon cookie scoop to scoop dough into your hands.
  • Roll into balls and place onto a baking sheet. Repeat until all dough is gone.
  • Use a teaspoon or finger to press a hole into each ball to create the thumbprint.
  • Next, melt 1/3 cup of white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl.
  • Use a 1/2 teaspoon to spoon melted white chocolate into the center of each thumbprint.
  • Place entire baking sheet into the freezer and freeze for a half hour to set the white chocolate.
