Jessy's Fav Mint Fudge Pudding Cookies

I used an existing Jello gelatin recipe and changed it up to come up with this recipe. I added my favorite things and took out things I didn't like. I love Jello Pudding and you can make this recipe in any flavor pudding that you like. I added protein powder and used soy flour because I am always trying to cut back on carbs. You can use regular flour in place of these if you like. These cookies are also very good frozen. These are not quite as tasty as regular cookies but hit the spot if you are looking for a protein enriched dieter's cookie.
