Instructions: In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free rolled oats and vegan chocolate protein powder. In a saucepan over low heat, melt together the smooth peanut butter, maple syrup, unsweetened cocoa powder, and unsweetened almond milk. Stir until smooth and well combined. Remove the saucepan from heat and add in the dairy-free chocolate chips, vanilla extract, and salt. Stir until the chocolate chips are melted and the mixture is creamy. Pour the chocolate peanut butter mixture over the dry ingredients in the mixing bowl. Stir well to combine, ensuring all oats are coated. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Using a spoon or your hands, drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto the parchment paper, forming cookies. Place the cookies in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to firm up. Once firm, remove from the refrigerator and enjoy your gluten-free, vegan, and protein-packed no-bake cookies!
