I try to avoid whey protein as it affects me slightly. Therefore I was started searching for some alternative options and came across MyProtein's Vegan options. I decided to try their protein vegan chocolate baked cookie.
When it comes to protein cookies, you cannot expect much. When I decided to purchase these cookies I did not have high expectations.
My thoughts when I opened the box is, that is a lot of cookies...I hope they taste good, otherwise, this was a waste of money. The price of these vegan chocolate baked cookies is £15.99 for 12 cookies.
Appearance-Opening up the packet, first thought, a decently large cookie, thick and very dark in color. There is a good amount of chocolate chips too.
Texture- Soft and crumbly
Smell- Chocolatey, no off-putting smell.
Taste- First bite, reassured me of its chocolate flavor. This cookie is super chocolatey, a little too chocolatey for me. Often people say, if you are going to eat a cookie you need to eat all of the cookie, who eats half right? Well me...half of the cookie is just enough to satisfy my sweet and chocolatey craving. Sure, you can eat the whole cookie, but you will definitely need to down some water after eating one of these. While they are dense cookies, they are soft but a little chewy.
They do not have the best nutrition out there with 38g carbs, of which 16g are sugar, fat is 8.6g and protein 13g per cookie. I guess you might just buy this as a treat and get the added benefit of some protein.
Do I recommend these cookies and would I buy them again?
Yes to both. They are a good tasting cookie, sure the nutrition is not the best but if you eat half or even eat it now and then it is fine!
