Ingredients

• 1 cup Chocolate protein powder
• 1 cup Natural peanut butter
• 0.25 cup Coconut oil
• 0.25 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 0.25 cup Honey (or maple syrup for vegan option)
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 pinch Pinch of sea salt
• 0.5 cup Chopped nuts or seeds (optional)
• 0.25 cup Dark chocolate chips (optional topping)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the chocolate protein powder and unsweetened cocoa powder. Stir until well combined.

Step 2

In a microwave-safe bowl or small saucepan, melt the coconut oil and peanut butter together until smooth and fully liquid. If using a microwave, heat in 20-second intervals, stirring in between.

Step 3

Add the melted peanut butter and coconut oil mixture to the dry ingredients in the mixing bowl.

Step 4

Stir in the honey (or maple syrup for a vegan option), vanilla extract, and a pinch of sea salt. Mix until a thick, smooth fudge batter forms.

Step 5

If desired, fold in the chopped nuts or seeds for added crunch and texture.

Step 6

Line a 9x5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper. Press the fudge mixture evenly into the pan, smoothing the top with a spatula or the back of a spoon.

Step 7

Sprinkle the dark chocolate chips on top, gently pressing them into the surface if using.

Step 8

Refrigerate the fudge for at least 2 hours, or until firm and set.

Step 9

Once set, remove the fudge from the pan using the parchment paper and cut it into 16 squares.

Step 10

Store the fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week or in the freezer for longer storage.
