Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1/2 cup natural peanut butter or creamy almond butter
- 1/2 cup vanilla protein powder or unflavored collagen protein
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions
- To a mixing bowl, add the almond flour, nut butter, protein powder, honey, vanilla and salt. Using a rubber scraper, mix the ingredients well until well incorporated. Dough will be thick.
- Add in the chocolate chips and stir to incorporate into the dough.
- Using a cookie scoop, scoop out dough and roll into balls. Place the balls on a sheet pan covered with parchment paper or waxed paper (so the balls don't stick to the pan.) Once all the dough has been rolled into balls, freeze the balls for 1-2 hours.
