- 1 egg
- 1 scoop Vanilla Whey Protein Powder

Almond Brownies:

- Portion into cupcake cups then top and slightly press each oreo thin into brownie.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes. Use the toothpick test to check doneness.

Peanut Butter Cookies:
- While Almond Brownies are being baked, let's make your PB cookies!
- In a bowl add all ingredients and stir until your mix reaches a firm texture.
- Set up a baking pan with parchment paper. Use 1 heaping tbsp portions of PB dough and roll into a ball, flatten into a cookie shape and place of pan.
- Your dough will make 6 big cookies. You can also re adjust this to make smaller cookies.
- Bake in oven at 350F for 12-13 minutes. As soon as the cookies has a golden brown bottom, they're done.
- Let cool for 10 minutes.
Brownie Cookie Combo:
- Remove the brownies from the cupcake wraps, and using a small plate or spatula, gently press down on the brownies to flatten them.
- Layer your flattened brownies on your PB cookies so you can turn them into sandwiches!
- Using your icing, put in a ziploc bag( imitating a pipping bag) and surround the outside of the brownie. Then top with your second PB cookie.
- Eat your sandwiches!
