Notes
- Measure the butter solid but melt it before mixing.
- Carton egg yolks may not work the same as fresh.
- The protein powder you choose can alter the texture and the flavor of the protein cookies
- You need to bake the gluten-free cookies at 325 (not three fifty!). The lower heat helps them from drying out.
- Make sure to take them off the pan to cool on a rack. Otherwise, they continue to cook and the more they cook the drier they become.
