Vegan Protein Pretzel Cookies
Let's cut right to the chase....these things are AMAZING because
SWEET & SALTY are made for each other,
and here's why:
- The receptor in your body responsible for transporting sugar to your cells can only do so when sodium is present
-
So, salt actually does brighten the taste of something sweet
-
Your tongue actually has additional receptors that can only taste sweetness when salt is present, so you would be missing out on the fullness of flavor without it
-
We are hardwired to crave junk food at times….whether it’s chocolate candy or the crunch of salty chips, so when we marry the two, Sweet & Salty together, it’s EXTRA SATISFYING!
So…..tell us, are you a fan of Sweet & Salty?
RECIPE:
- Just make our EZ Protein Cookie Dough (see a previous post)
- Add a little between two pretzels
- Freeze for 10minutes
- Melt some chocolate chips
- Dip then and let them dry
Just kidding, go ahead and eat them all!
