Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Cups







 

 

Makes ~12 Large Cups

Ingredients: 
 
1 cup PB powder, I used PB Fit
6 tbs of milk, separated I used almond milk 
2 scoop vanilla protein powder
2 tbs coconut oil 
1 1/2 cups of semi-sweet chocolate chips 

Directions: 
  
Line muffin tin with liners. I highly recommend silicone liners. 
 
Filling
  1. Mix PB powder and protein powder in a bowl. 
  2. Add in 1-2 tbs at a time of milk and mix thoroughly. Repeat until mixture becomes sticky/tacky. If you can grab it and roll it into a ball, you've added enough liquid. Over doing liquid is o.k., it will just be more messy creating the cups but equally as delicious.
Chocolate Coating
  1. Add chocolate chips and coconut oil to a bowl and melt in a microwave, 30 seconds at a time, stirring in between. You can also melt over a stove top using the double broiler method. 
  2.  Scoop 1 tbs melted chocolate into each muffin space and freeze 10 min. 
  3.  While they are freezing roll PB/protein mixture into ping-pong sized balls.--a little more than a tablespoon.
  4. When frozen, place PB/protein ball filling on top of frozen chocolate. Gently press on the ball and spread evenly over the bottom chocolate layer. I found dipping my finger in a little water helped do this easily.
  5. Scoop 1 tbs on top of filling and ensure it is covering all of it. 
  6. Freeze for at least 20 min. 
  7. Pop them out of the mold and store in the fridge or freezer. 

Enjoy!
