Me at work all day: "Can I be home baking yet?!" I am in a baking mood and was so eager to play in the kitchen. I made....one of the most incredible desserts.... Holy molyyyyyy it's delicious. Cookies and cream protein donutsssss using the new cookies and cream quest bar!! Heyoooo, the crunchy bits are awesome.Cookies and Cream Protein DonutsMakes: 4 donutsDonut Base

- 1 TBSP almond meal/flour
- 1/2 scoop chocolate whey protein
- 3 egg whites

Preheat the oven to 350 F. Grind the oats into a flour. Then add the remaining donut batter ingredients and blend again. Spray a donut mold pan with nonstick spray. Pour batter amongst 4 donut molds. Bake at 350 F for 10 minutes.For the topping, use a handblender to blend 2/3 cup lowfat cottage cheese, 1/2 scoop vanilla whey protein, and 1 stevia packet. Then split this mixture in half in two separate bowls. Add 1 tsp unsweetened cocoa powder to one of the halves. This way you have two separate icing flavors to use together on each donut. Once you've iced the donuts, crumble 1/2 cookies and cream quest protein bar amongst the top of the donuts.Nutritional info for 1 donut before toppings: 67 calories; 2 g fat, 6 g carbs (2 g fiber), and 7 g proteinNutritional info for 1 donut after toppings: 123 calories; 3 g fat, 10 g carbs (3 g fiber), and 17 g protein
