Chocolate Covered Cherry Protein Packed Cookies

This recipe is my own creation and is a compromise recipe between my husband who gets mad at me for making sweets because he tries to stay very healthy and fit... and me, who loves chocolate and a little dessert. I too enjoy a healthy lifestyle, but a girl needs her chocolate!
