Choc Chip Cricket Powder Cookies

 
Everyone loves a great cookie, and we can make it more nutrient dense by adding cricket powder. Try making your favourite cookie recipe and replace about 1/3 of the regular flour with cricket powder. You’ll get the same cookie that you love, but it will be higher in protein, amino acids and B12 Vitamins. If you’re stuck here’s my delicious Cricket Powder Choc Chip Cookie Recipe.
These cookies are so yummy (even if I do say so myself), but also so satisfying. Because they are high in protein you won’t find yourself eating the whole batch at once.

You can also purchase our Choc Chip Cookie Mix, so all you need to do is mix and bake.

• 110g softened butter
• 105g brown sugar

7. Using a tablespoon, scoop out balls of the dough and roll them between your hands to make them an even shape.
