Sugar Cookie Energy Bites

You guys, sugar cookies hold a such a special place in my heart that I had to make a version to store in the freezer so that they would be accessible at all times 🤣 it also helps that these are actually a healthy snack!

I used to LOVE those Lofthouse cookies that come out every season (I still do, I just don’t eat them quite as often now 😆) and these Sugar Cookie Collagen Balls remind me of them!

Made with simple ingredients, an added protein-boost from the collagen powder, healthy fat from the cashew butter, and even a little bit of fiber from the coconut flour… these are the PERFECT snack or treat.

Here is what your batter should look like before you roll it into balls. It’s soft but also easy to work with (aka not sticking to your hands!)
