Prep Time: 20 min
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup peanut or almond butter
- 1/3 cup natural vanilla protein powder
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- pinch of salt
- stevia, to taste
- 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips (we used this brand sweetened by stevia)
- 1 tbs coconut oil or unsalted butter
- 10 cake pop sticks
Instructions
- In a microwave safe bowl, heat peanut butter for 30-60 seconds or until very soft and creamy.
- Stir in your vanilla, stevia and salt, and mix well.
- Slowly add in your protein powder until a very thick, dry dough forms.
- Form peanut butter dough into 1″ inch balls and then insert one of your cake pop sticks.
- Place cake pops into the freezer for 5-10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a small saucepan heat coconut oil and dark chocolate over low heat, and stir until melted.
- Remove cake pops from the freezer and place on a piece of parchment paper.
- You can either dip the cake pops into the dark chocolate or spoon the dark chocolate on top of each cake pop.
- Once each cake pop is covered in chocolate, let cool and chocolate harden.
- Store in the refrigerator and enjoy!
