These peanut butter cups will be gone before you know it! Store in the fridge for a refreshing mid-day pick-me-up. Recipe yields 14 mini cups.
Ingredients:
1 scoop chocolate peanut butter cup protein powder or less depending on how runny your peanut butter is.
¼ cup natural smooth peanut butter
1 cup dark chocolate chips
2 tbsp coconut oil
Sea salt for topping (optional)
Directions:
1, First, start by lining a mini muffin tin with 14 muffin liners and set aside.
2. In a small bowl mix the peanut butter and protein powder together. Start with 2 tbsp of protein powder and continue adding more until your peanut butter mixture reaches a malleable consistency. This will depend on how smooth your nut butter is, usually natural peanut butters are runnier and will require a whole scoop of protein powder.
3. Scoop out about 1 rounded teaspoon of the peanut butter mixture and roll it into little marble sized balls and set aside.
4. In a microwave safe bowl melt the dark chocolate chips and coconut oil in 30 second increments, stirring each time until the chocolate is completely melted.
5. Scoop 1 tsp of the chocolate mixture into the bottom of each of the muffin liners then freeze for 10 minutes or until the chocolate solidifies.
6. When the chocolate hardens, place the rolled peanut butter balls on top and flatten them using your fingers or the back of a spoon.
7. Add 2 more teaspoons of melted chocolate on top of the peanut butter layer and sprinkle some sea salt on top. Repeat this process with all the peanut butter cups and place the muffin tin back into the freezer for the chocolate to harden.
8. Store these chocolate peanut butter protein cups in an airtight container in the freezer for maximum freshness.
