These EASY Protein Chocolates are a no-bake, high-protein treat made with simple ingredients like protein powder, cocoa, nut butter, and natural sweeteners. Perfect for a post-workout snack, healthy dessert, or on-the-go energy boost.

Ingredients

  1. 1 cup protein powder (vanilla or chocolate flavor)
  2. 1/4 cup cocoa powder
  3. 1/2 cup nut butter (almond, peanut, or cashew butter)
  4. 1/4 cup coconut oil or butter
  5. 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
  6. 1 tsp vanilla extract
  7. Pinch of salt
  8. Optional: mini chocolate chips, chopped nuts, shredded coconut

Instructions

In a mixing bowl, combine protein powder and cocoa powder.

  1. In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the nut butter and coconut oil together until smooth.
  2. Remove from heat and stir in honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, and salt.
  3. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until a smooth dough forms.
  4. If the mixture is too thick, add a splash of milk or water to loosen.
  5. Spoon the mixture into silicone chocolate molds or roll into small balls and flatten slightly.
  6. If using add-ins, press them gently into the tops.
  7. Freeze for 20–30 minutes or until firm.
  8. Pop the chocolates out of the molds and store them in the fridge or freezer.
  9. Enjoy whenever you need a protein boost or a sweet treat.

Notes

  • For a vegan version, use plant-based protein powder and maple syrup.
  • Nut-free option: substitute sunflower seed butter or tahini.
  • Store in the fridge for up to 1 week or freeze for up to 2 months.
  • Keep chilled for best texture as they may soften at room temperature.
