  1. In a large mixing bowl, add the vanilla protein powder, chocolate chips, maple syrup, and peanut butter. Mix until a cohesive dough forms, about 2-3 minutes.
  2. Scoop small portions of the mixture and roll them into balls, aiming for 1 inch in diameter; you should get around 12 balls.
  3. Place the rolled protein balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet or plate and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  4. After 30 minutes, remove the cookie dough protein balls from the refrigerator and serve as a nutritious snack or dessert.
