Notice how all my combinations were sweet there? Hmm...I'll get round to blogging savoury soon, I promise!
Anyway, when I finally got my mitts on some of Sci-Tec Direct's incredible white chocolate and pistachio whey protein, I knew exactly what I was going to create. White Chocolate Pistachio Protein Cookies...hI mean, just how scrumptious do these look?
I originally made them with this delicious White Chocolate Hazelnut Spread from Protein Pick and Mix, but then Hognuts only went and created one of the most delicious nut butters I've ever tried - Pistachio Ice Cream Cashew Butter.
Perfect! What could be better to test out that nut butter dream than with these healthy, scrumptious cookies? Made free from refined sugars as ever, and also easy to make Paleo (just use ground almonds instead of oats), these cookies are my new favourite. They even got the toddler thumbs up!
