Notes
Storage:
Place the Peanut Butter Cookie Poppers into an air-tight container lined with parchment paper and store them in the fridge. Alternatively, you can add plastic wrap to a lined plate. They will last 7-10 days in the fridge.
You can also freeze them in an airtight container or a Ziplock bag for up to 2 months. Allow them to thaw on the counter for a few minutes before enjoying.
Tips + Modifications:
I like to chill my cookie poppers in the fridge for an hour before enjoying.
No need to add salt to the cookie poppers if your peanuts are salted.
If you'd prefer a more chocolatey vibe, swap the vanilla protein powder for chocolate.
