Ingredients
Scale
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup protein powder (vanilla or chocolate)
- 10 Oreo cookies, crushed into fine crumbs
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

- In a mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, protein powder, honey, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and creamy.
- Add the crushed Oreos to the bowl and stir until fully incorporated. The mixture should be thick but easy to shape.

- Chill the protein balls in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
- Serve and enjoy! Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge.
