Yields: 2 servings

Serving size: 1 cookie

Prep time: 20 min

Cook time: 6 minutes

Ingredients:

• 1 Double Chocolate Chunk Quest Bar®
• 1 scoop Quest® Vanilla Milkshake Protein Powder
• 2 ½ tablespoons unsweetened almond milk
• 1 teaspoon granulated zero-calorie sweetener
• 2 lollipop sticks
• 1 oz sugar-free white chocolate
• 1 drop green food coloring
• 4 sugar-free chocolate chips

Method:

 Preheat oven to 350°F.

 In a medium microwave-safe bowl, heat unwrapped Double Chocolate Chunk Quest Bar® for 9 seconds.  Break into 4 even pieces.

 Coat two large squares of wax paper with cooking spray.  Place the bar pieces on the paper and cover with the second sheet.  Roll each piece to approximately ¼” thickness.  Shape into 4 even circles using a cookie cutter.

 Place cookie circles onto a nonstick baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silpat.  Bake for 6 minutes, or until cookies are lightly browned.  Remove to cool.

 In a small bowl, mix the Quest® Vanilla Milkshake Protein Powder, almond milk and zero-calorie sweetener until a smooth, thick icing is achieved.  Mixture will be very thick.

 Divide icing evenly onto all four cookies and spread.  Lay a lollipop stick in the center of one cookie and sandwich the other cookie on top.  Press down gently to secure the stick and both cookies together.

 Microwave the sugar-free white chocolate for .45 seconds.  Stir.  Microwave 10 additional seconds, if needed.

 Remove 1 teaspoon of the white chocolate and add 1 drop of green food coloring.  Stir well. Spoon the melted white chocolate onto the top and sides of each cookie (do not frost the back).  Place two sugar-free chocolate chips as eyes onto the front. Let harden slightly.  Spoon ½ teaspoon of the melted green chocolate onto the top of each snowman to create a hat.

 Continue to embellish the snowman, if desired.
