Vegan Protein Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups

May 13, 2021

After battling with a dangerous Hersheys Peanut Butter Cup addiction, I created the best alternative recipe! Some might even say it’s much yummier than the original 😉

Packed with protein, so it will feel guilt free and made from only 5 ingredients!

All ingredients available Online & Instore 🍫🥜

INGREDIENTS:

🥜 1/2 cup of Macro Mike smooth peanut butter
🥜 2 tbsp of Macro Mike Chocolate peanut butter protein powder
🥜 3 tbsp organic maple syrup
🥜 1 tsp vanilla extract
🥜 1 & 1/2 cups of vegan 70% dark chocolate

METHOD:

1. Mix the peanut butter, protein powder, maple syrup & vanilla extract to form a thick paste.
2. Melt the chocolate in 20 second increments, be careful not to burn the chocolate!
3. Put your filling paste in the fridge while you begin to layer the bottom of your cupcake liners with chocolate + the sides.
4. Put them in the freezer for 10 minutes so they set.
5. Take the filling paste out of the fridge & chocolate liners out of the freezer – cover the chocolate bottoms of the liners with your filling paste.
6. Top with melted chocolate to create a 3 layer cup
7. Put in the freezer for 15 minutes

All done! Enjoy one at a time 😉
