  • 1 cup (120g) vanilla protein powder
  • ½ cup (90g) chocolate chips

Wet Ingredients

  • ½ cup (160g) maple syrup
  • ½ cup (128g) peanut butter or almond butter

Instructions

  1. Combine ingredients: In a large bowl, mix the vanilla protein powder, chocolate chips, maple syrup, and peanut or almond butter thoroughly until a dough forms with a sticky and moldable consistency.
  2. Roll into balls: Using your hands, shape the dough into 12 equal-sized balls, about 1-inch in diameter each, ensuring they are compact to hold their shape.
  3. Refrigerate: Place the formed balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow them to firm up for easier handling and better texture.

  • Add a pinch of salt or cinnamon to the mixture for added flavor if desired.
