It is a dear friends birthday today and her favorite combo is chocolate and coconut.
So in honor of her I created “Mounds” protein bites.
It is delicious easy and gives you some good protein to fuel the body all in the process!
Ingredients:
2 scoops of chocolate whey protein powder
3 tablespoons of nut butter ( I used 1 Tbsp of almond, 1 Tbsp of sun butter, 1 Tbsp of cashew)
1 ripe banana mashed
3 Tbsp of unsweetened shredded coconut (divided)
1 1/2 Tbsp of unsweetened cocoa powder
1 Tbsp of raw honey
1 Tbsp of dark cacao chocolate chips
1 tsp of coconut creamer or milk
1 Tbsp of coconut flour
Directions:
In a large mixing bowl combine protein powder, cocoa powder, nut butter, coconut flour, creamer, and honey, mix well.
Next, add mashed banana and with a hand mixer beat until completely mixed.
Then add 1 Tbsp of coconut and chocolate chips and mix with a large mixing spoon.
Roll into 1 to 2′ balls and top with remaining coconut.
Place in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to an hour to let settle (for faster results place in the freezer).
Serve and Enjoy!
