Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

3/4 cup Pillsbury Funfetti Cake Mix
6 tbsp Dymatize Elite Vanilla Casein Protein Powder
2 tbsp Cellucor Whipped Vanilla Whey Protein Powder
1/3 cup light brown sugar
2 tbsp rainbow sprinkles

Wet Ingredients

1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
1/4 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
1/4 tsp almond extract

Instructions

Heat-Treat Cake Mix: Microwave the Funfetti cake mix for 30 seconds to eliminate any potential bacteria in the raw flour. Allow the cake mix to cool completely before incorporating into the recipe.
Cream Butter and Sugar: In a mixing bowl, beat the softened unsalted butter and light brown sugar together until the mixture becomes light, fluffy, and creamy, forming the base for the dough.
Combine Proteins and Cake Mix: Add the vanilla casein protein powder, whipped vanilla whey protein powder, cooled cake mix, almond extract, and almond milk to the creamed butter and sugar. Mix gently until just combined to preserve the dough’s soft, dough-like texture.
Add Sprinkles: Fold in the rainbow sprinkles gently to evenly distribute the colorful pieces without breaking them.
Serve or Store: Enjoy the protein cookie dough immediately as a delicious snack, or transfer it to an airtight container and refrigerate for up to one week to maintain freshness and flavor.

Notes

Heating the cake mix is crucial for safety given the raw flour content.
For a dairy-free version, verify that protein powders and butter alternatives are suitable.
Adjust almond milk amount slightly if dough is too dry or too wet.
Store refrigerated and consume within one week for best taste and safety.
Use gluten-free rainbow sprinkles if needed for dietary restrictions.
