Protein Peanut Butter Cups
Chocolate high protein peanut butter cups are a healthy snack recipe that's packed with protein!
Servings: 18 - 20 protein cups
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup peanut butter or allergy friendly sub
- 1/4 cup protein powder (32g)
- 1/8 tsp salt
- 2/3 cup chocolate chips or sugar free chocolate chips
- 2 tsp coconut oil or vegetable oil (optional for a smoother sauce)
Instructions
- To make chocolate protein peanut butter cups, carefully melt the chocolate chips. Stir in the optional oil until smooth. Spread about a half teaspoon up the sides of mini cupcake liners. Stir the nut butter, salt, and protein powder until thick and smooth. Spoon a little over a teaspoon into each chocolate coated liner. Top with remaining chocolate sauce. Either chill ten minutes to set or wait a few hours and the chocolate peanut butter cups will set on their own. Once the chocolate shell hardens, liners should peel off easily. Store leftovers in a cool, dry place.View Nutrition Facts
