Protein-Packed Peanut Butter Cups

Protein-Packed Peanut Butter Cups

(Recipe By Stacy Makes Cents)

Ingredients:

    4 Tbsp. melted extra virgin coconut oil (extra virgin is a MUST–unless you hate the taste of coconut!)

    1/2 cup natural peanut butter

    1/4 cup cocoa powder

    stevia extract to taste

    1 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract

    1/2 scoop protein powder

Method:

Stir everything up and pour into 5-6 silicon cupcake liners (or 5-6 full-sized muffin tins). Place in the freezer for about 15 minutes. Enjoy!

Note: These do melt quickly, so it’s best to keep them in the freezer when you’re not eating them.

I purchased the coconut oil and protein powder used in this recipe from Vitacost.com. I LOVE shopping at Vitacost because 1) I don’t have to leave the house, and 2) They have GREAT prices on natural foods and supplements!
