I just made these but with chocolate fudge flavoured protein powder, and I rolled mine in finely desiccated coconut.
I got 11 balls out of mine, they're smaller than the ones in the photo. I used 60 grams of PP, 14 grams of coconut oil, 25 grams of coconut flour and 10 grams of the desiccated coconut. Comes out to 50 calories a ball, with 4 grams of protein and 2 each of fat and carbs.

Another mfp member posted this recently, I haven't tried them yet, but they sound good and easy to make.
" in sauce pan combine 1/2 cup preferred milk & 8 tblsp peanut butter & 1 tblsp+ honey. Warm up on low heat to melt & add cinnamon & 1 1/2 cups protein powder of choice (vanilla or chocolate peanut butter are great). Add uncooked oats & mix. Place in waxed 9x9 or other pan & pat firmly & freeze for 20 minutes. Then cut and pre-package servings. Calories and fat can be determined by you by adding any extras such as a handful of raisins & or top with a sprinkle of choc. chips or coconut or dried fruit/nuts/flax seed/chia seeds etc. Options are endless!"1 -

lots of other really good uses for protein powder (or not) too0 -
Protein balls are great if you want to pack on muscle. If your trying to lose weight... I find I can smash a truck load of them cos their delicious. So probably not good for weight loss.0

its the calorie deficit that's causing you to lose weight, not the protein.0 -
Correct but, high protien diets keep you fuller for longer. I wasnt as hungry. At that point in time i was also on a strict 1700 diet as well couting macros and everything0
