Calories: 230

Ingredients
  

  • 1/4 cup natural peanut butter
  • 2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 scoop chocolate protein powder
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 2 tbsp chopped pecans plus extra for topping
  • 1 tbsp almond milk as needed
  • Pinch of salt

Method
 

  1. Add the peanut butter, cocoa powder, chocolate protein powder, honey, and salt to a mixing bowl.
  2. Stir until a thick, fudge-like dough forms, adding almond milk a teaspoon at a time if too dry.
  3. Fold in the chopped pecans.
  4. Press the mixture into a small lined dish or shape into bite-sized balls.
  5. Press a few extra pecan pieces on top for garnish.
  6. Chill in the fridge for at least 15 minutes until firm.
  7. Slice into squares if using a dish, or serve the bites as is.

Notes

Buy pecans in bulk from the baking aisle rather than pre-packaged snack bags — a small handful goes a long way toward the rich, nutty crunch this dessert needs.
