Vanilla Almond Protein Cups
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup creamy almond butter
- ¼ cup + 2 tablespoons Vital Proteins Vanilla & Coconut Water Collagen Whey
- 1 tablespoon + 1 teaspoon honey
- 9 oz. dark chocolate, chopped
Instructions
- In a bowl combine almond butter, Collagen Whey & honey and stir until combined. In a microwave safe bowl, add 8 oz of the chopped chocolate. Microwave the chocolate for 30 seconds at a time, stirring between each time, until fully melted (about 2 minutes and 30 seconds total). Then add in the remaining ounce of chocolate and stir until melted. This helps temper the chocolate!
- Take your silicone cup mold and add 1 teaspoon of chocolate to each cup. Use the end of a wooden spoon to swirl the chocolate up the sides of the mold. Place the mold in the refrigerator for about 5 minutes to firm the chocolate up. One chocolate is set, scoop the almond butter mixture into balls (about 1 heaping teaspoon of it) and add 1 ball to each cup.
- Then scoop the remaining chocolate on top of the almond butter until the cup is full. Once they are all filled, place cups in the refrigerator (on a cookie sheet for stability), until set.
- Pop out of the mold and enjoy! Keep them in the refrigerator for best texture!
- *Note: You will not use all of the almond butter mixture! Keep the extra in the fridge for snacking or you can use more chocolate and make more!
- *Makes 30 cups!
