About these Pumpkin Cookie Sandwiches:

Let's go beyond the classic cookie sandwich and let's make instead this healthier and improved version of them! I also wanted to include a twist, a fun a de delicious twist by just using Good Phats as my base, a chocolate chip cookie mix that will make things ever easier.


This cookie mix just saves us a lot of steps, ingredients and it also keeps things low carb. We are just adding some eggs and MCT (coconut oil and ghee also work!) for the cookies and the filling is also super simple to make and secretly packed with protein.


Key Ingredients:

Adding some greek yogurt for extra fluffiness and a satisfying filling. Also, I have been also obsessed with the Good Phats, the best chocolate chip mix and super versatile plus it's keto friendly... great great staple for fun recipes.



Cookies and pumpkin filling, the perfect seasonal cookie! These are simply perfect for meal prep, no need to bake anything at all to enjoy and attack that sweet tooth at any moment. The base is soft and the filling of these is creamy thanks the the greek yogurt... also source of probiotics!


The filling of the cookie sandwiches:

The filling is made with simple ingredients; I'm using Marigold Creamy Vanilla Grass-Fed Whey Protein (PURELYHL for discount), greek yogurt pumpkin puree and monk fruit as simple as that. Simple base, low in carbs and thick thanks to the whey protein.



Overall, these are the ingredients needed for these Pumpkin Cookie Sandwiches:
