My son absolutely loves it when I bake cookies to sneak into his high school lunch bag. His friends gaze at his lunch enviously, and I’m pretty sure he lets them have a bite or two once in while. Although these are packed with chocolate chips and peanut butter cups, I feel good that I’m able to sneak a little bit of peanut butter protein in there as well as some whole wheat flour and oats. They make for a hearty and filling dessert.
These are a sturdy cookie… so you don’t have to worry about them crumbling apart in the lunch box. And they freeze well too- so you can keep baggies ready to go in the freezer (and they’re safe there from spontaneous munching, right??!!)
