COREY AND ELLEN'S PROTEIN
BARS
Ingredients:
1/2 cup peanut butter or hazelnut butter
1/2 cup water
4 small packets Splenda
1/4 to 1/2 cup baking cocoa (to taste)
7-8 scoops vanilla 100% whey protein powder
Preparation:
Mix in a large bowl the peanut butter, water, and Splenda to a
smooth consistency. Stir in cocoa and mix until smooth. Add seven
scoops of the protein powder, using a pastry blender and probably
your hands eventually to make a ball of dough. If it is too sticky
to work with, you can add the eighth scoop of protein. Sometimes
we microwave the whole thing for 25 seconds to soften up the oil
in the nut butter, which makes it easier to get it all mixed in.
You want to end up with a ball that you can roll out into a "log" about 10 inches long. Then, use a sharp knife to cut off pieces (we do either 1 or 2-oz. pieces). Put the pieces in a storage container and refrigerate; they'll be firm soon and ready to eat!
