Protein Peanut Butter Cups {Clean Eating}

Protein Peanut Butter Cups {Clean Eating}
UPDATE: I have had a few people comment that they don’t harden very well, so I have REVISED the recipe to add in 2 TB of melted coconut oil. *ALSO I now use my silicone baking cups, and they hold the shape much better! A yummy Healthy Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup thats under 100 calories?! Shut the Front DOOR! Yes its true Folks! You can have chocolate and gain muscle As most of you know, I discovered PB2 (Powdered Peanut Butter) a couple weeks ago! I fell in LOVE immediately and have been looking for new things to try with it! PB2 only has 45 Calories for 2 TB, compared to (typical) Peanut Butter that has 210 Calories for 2TB!! Mix together the Coco Powder, Greek Yogurt, and Chocolate Protein Powder. Slowly one TB at a time, add water, until the mixture is easy to pour (NOT THICK). Next (in a separate bowl) mix together your PB2 & water. You may have to slowly add water so that this mixture is also a liquid consistent. First pour your chocolate mixture into the bottom of the cupcake liners, about a quater of the way up. Then Pour your PB2 mixture in. And one more time, Top it off with some more of the Chocolate Mixture. NOTE: You don’t want to fill these up too high since they are mostly “liquid”. Then pop them in the freezer for 15 minutes. That’s It!! NO BAKE Protein Peanut Butter Cups Ingredients You’ll Need: -4 Cupcake Liners -2 TB of PB2 -2 TB of melted coconut oil -2 TB of water (*may need more) -3 TB of Plain Greek Yogurt -1 TB of coco powder (unsweetened) -1 Scoop of Chocolate Protein Powder *Optional: -2 Stevia Packet or a spoonful of Honey *For Taste **I have had a few comments about these being very bitter, if you need to add MORE honey or stevia till you reach the desired thickness. Mix together the Coco Powder, Greek Yogurt, melted Coconut Oil, and Chocolate Protein Powder. Slowly one TB at a time, add water, until the mixture is easy to pour (NOT THICK).

Now just pop them in the freezer for about 30 minutes to an hour and your all done! I store my leftover ones in the freezer in tupperware containers. They are a great snack when Im having a chocolate craving!
