These look so amazing--I wish I had the recipe around Thanksgiving time when I was struggling with what to do with pumpkin! I ended up making up my own oatmeal pumpkin cookies but they were horrible :(
I'll save this one for next time!
What a great energy cookie! They look yummy and so healthy!
I am really loving the fact that this is healthy and tasty! What makes the chocolate chips different are they sugar free? See my husband and I are on a diet and we are trying to find ways to *coughs* have are cake and eat it too. But often times I find that light foods tastes not that great.
Meg, these look super! I think I'm going to try making them :o).
Awesome, I'm starting to think about trying to be more careful about what I eat, I'm going to have to try these!
Mmm, lovin' those "pump it up"-style cookies!! :-D
These look yummy! I love pumpkin!
That looks like a fantastic energy cookie! I'm definitely going to have to try this recipe. :)
uh oh, you got me craving more pumpkin :)
These cookies look wonderful - so healthy and delicious!
Now I'm going to have to buy more Pumpkin! I thought I was done with all the pumpkin goodies but these look too good to pass up!
Are these flourless? I don't see flour listed as an ingredient...
Ooo and I LOVE those chocolate chips, they are so mini yet full of flavor!
Meg-A!! These cookies look amazing. I love how you put protein powder in them. Makes me feel like I could eat 8 of them :)
Yum! Very creative!
Those look really good, Meg! Another great way to use pumpkin!
These look great! I'm always looking for healthy, fun snacks with protein to keep me going during the day (especially on days when I go running!) I'm definitely bookmarking these to try them sometime. Thanks for posting!
those sound wonderful! on my recipe list FOR SURE now! :)
yummmmmm
Thank you for getting back to me! I was reading in the Cake Bible that milk actually makes the chocolate more bitter...This is wonderful! I probably have to buy them at a health food store huh?
They sound great. I like baking with protein powder more than I like drinking it in a shake. I want to make these, but I also want to make everything you've made so they will have to go on the waiting list!
oh yummmooo! they look amazing it's like all my fav ingredients conveniently packed into one baked good!!
Wow, awesome cookies!
Gorgeous! Real energy cookies!
Cheers,
Rosa
These sound perfect. I used to make something similar in a bar with the protein powder.
Thanks so much for stopping by my blog and giving me hair opinions! I hope you have a wonderful day :)
Now there is a good breakfast cookie!
MMM those look fantastic! I love the addition of the protein powder - pretty tricky! :)
These sound so delicious. I'm always looking for new ways to get more protein, these are perfect!
Thanks!
Oh yum! Love the extra bump from the protein powder!

These look so healthy!
Great idea! These would be perfect for hikes, camping, and packed lunches.
This cookie has it all!
I had a can of pumpkin in my cupboard - should have known to come to your site to see what to do with it!!
Congrats on your new domain name! That's such a big step!
Those cookies look so good. I love when cookies have a secret ingredient like protein powder. These would make a great pre-workout snack! Then I could say I'm eating a cookie before the gym and people would be jealous ;o)
Looks great Megan. I love pumpkin and still have 4 cans from the holidays. I think I know what I'll do with them!
I love cookies like these. They're perfect for sending with the hubs for a mid-afternoon snack
these sound fantastic! I'll totally have to give them a try :) I love chocolate whey protein yum!
Oooh, these look SOO good.
Thank you for sharing the recipe!
These look like a great pre or post workout snack. Thanks!
Wow sounds really healthy and looks really yummy!
