1/2cupchocolate chips
Instructions
First thing you need to do is pre-heat the oven to 375F.
In a pot, boil water on the stove.
Before adding the sweet potatoes to the recipe, you need to boil them to soften them up. To speed up the boiling process, chop up the sweet potatoes first.
Add the chopped sweet potatoes to the pot, then boil for 8-10 minutes, until soft. Once the sweet potatoes is soft enough to be easily poked with a fork, it's finished boiling.
Once the sweet potatoes are ready, remove the water, then add them to a large mixing bowl.
Take a fork and mash the sweet potatoes together. Once the sweet potatoes are mashed up, add in a 1/2 cup of almond butter, one whole egg, then mix it all together.
Once it's mixed together, add 1 tbsp of honey, then mix the batter again.
Next up, add 1 serving of egg white or whey protein powder to the bowl, along with a dash of cinnamon, a dash of Himalayan pink sea salt, and finally a 1/4 tsp of vanilla extract for flavor. Mix it up one more time.
The last step is to add 1/2 cup of chocolate chips to the batter. Give the batter a few gentle stirs to allow the chocolate chips to start melting. This will also help spread out the flavor of the chocolate chips to give each cookie a nice chocolate taste.
To make each chocolate chip protein cookie, add a decent sized tablespoon of the cookie batter mixture to a baking sheet, topped with parchment paper.
After adding 9 cookies to the baking sheet, we still had approximately enough batter left to make another 5 cookies. Depending on the size of your baking sheet, you may need to bake these cookies in batches.
Add the baking sheet to the pre-heated oven at 375F, then set your timer for 10 minutes. However, make sure you keep an eye on the cookies, because they will bake quickly.
After 10 minutes is up, they should be good to go. Remove the cookies from the oven, and let them cool down for a few minutes. Add the remaining cookie batter to the baking sheet, and bake the rest of the cookies the same way.
Once the cookies are cooled down, take a bite to see how they taste.

It’d be great if they actually turned out 🙁 They were so gooey that I just had to eat them with a spoon haha. I don’t even think baking it longer would have helped. I did the ten minutes….
How many sweet potatoes did you use? In the ingredient list it said “one medium sweet potato”… but in the video it certainly looks like you are using several potatoes…
love your videos, thank you sooo much for sharing!! I bought your cook book, and im super excited for a recipe that doesn’t have coconut!!! yayy Did you use protein isolate?? or impact whey?
I’m planning to make this at the weekend! It would be helpful if someone just cleared this up for me though- I thought a Paleo diet meant no dairy- isn’t chocolate chips a dairy product and whey protein also derived from cow’s milk?

Awesome video 🙂
I thought you said in another video to remove belly fat you need to
eliminate all sugars.
Anyway it looks delicious.
So how many calories would a cookie have?
It’d be great if they actually turned out 🙁 They were so gooey that I just
had to eat them with a spoon haha. I don’t even think baking it longer
would have helped. I did the ten minutes….
Spent an hour and a half making these, sooo good, good for post workout,
keep it coming!
Spent an hour ans a
How many sweet potatoes did you use? In the ingredient list it said “one
medium sweet potato”… but in the video it certainly looks like you are
using several potatoes…
Instead of the non flavored powder and chocolate chips, could you add a
chocolate flavored protein mix like muscle milk?
These are that good ive already made two batches, have no cinnamon so tried
ginger and nutmeg…very good
what do you think of oat milk???
can i replace sweet potato with pumpkin??
Great video ..def. going to try to make these
Look good but I am a bit confused. I thought whey and chocolate are from milk, and milk is not considered Paleo is it?
could you add baking powder and still be paleo approved?
I wonder if I could replace the sweet potato with bananas…
love your videos, thank you sooo much for sharing!! I bought your cook
book, and im super excited for a recipe that doesn’t have coconut!!! yayy
Did you use protein isolate?? or impact whey?
Yay for this recipe!!! Yay, yay, yay!!!!!
ehm.. I´m not completely sure, but isn´t paleo diet a no-milk? and whey
protein is milk so maybe not a paleo recipe? But hey, they sounds
delicious!
OMG looks awesome!
Thank you!!!!! Amazing looking!
I’m planning to make this at the weekend! It would be helpful if someone
just cleared this up for me though- I thought a Paleo diet meant no dairy-
isn’t chocolate chips a dairy product and whey protein also derived from
cow’s milk?
How do you shit with a low carb diet. Don’t your anal bleed?
What could I use instead of almond butter? It’s difficult to find where I
live.
So excited to make these. I have been waiting.
You forgot the measurements
Braddd, do you think a plant based protein powder would work as well? I
can’t have Whey 🙁
How much sweet potato did you use? measurements?
Looks awesome Brad, I’m just a little confused about the chocolate being
Paleo? Is there a specific kind that you use? Thanks for all the videos.
Been waiting for these. Looks awesome. I prefer whey protein isolate.
Just wondering what you prefer? Thanks for the vid.
