Course: Dessert
Cuisine: American
Keyword: chocolate, peanut butter, protein, protein powder
Servings: 3 /4 cup
Author: Katie Higgins

Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp cocoa powder
  • 3 tbsp protein powder
  • 2 tbsp milk of choice
  • 4 tbsp pure maple syrup (or stevia to taste)
  • 4 tbsp almond butter or nut or seed butter of choice

Instructions

  • If not already soft, gently heat nut butter until easily stir-able. Blend everything together until smooth. It's smoothest if you use a small blender or food processor but can definitely be done by hand. For the stevia version, add extra milk of choice as needed. For optimum freshness, store leftovers in the fridge for up to 10 days.
