Ingredients

1/2 cup CARNATION BREAKFAST ESSENTIALS® Rich Milk Chocolate Powdered Drink Mix
cooking spray
2 ripe avocados, mashed
1/2 cup honey
1 cup peanut butter
2 eggs
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup miniature semisweet chocolate chips

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil; spray lightly with cooking spray.
2 Place avocados into a blender or food processor. Add honey and blend until a creamy mixture forms and no lumps remain.
3 Add peanut butter, eggs, cocoa powder, and drink mix to the blender. Process until smooth. Add vanilla extract. Scrape down sides and blend until no powder is present.
4 Pour batter into a large bowl. Mix in chocolate chips; batter will be sticky. Drop scoopfuls of batter onto the baking sheet. Press down slightly batter to make a cookie shape.
5 Bake until center is no longer soft, about 12 minutes. Cool for 3 to 5 minutes on baking sheet, then transfer to a rack. Store cooled cookies in the refrigerator.
