Homemade protein bars?

Options
I have a tub of Optimum Nutrition Natural Chocolate flavored protein powder that I don't really care for all that much, so I wanted to put it to use and make some chocolatey protein bars with it. Does anyone have any good recipes?? I don't have any peanut butter in my house (it's kind of my dietary downfall...), so I can't use that. But I have pretty much anything else that a recipe would require!

Please help! I need to make space in my pantry and this tub takes up so much space! Haha.

    I know ON isn't the best tasting, but there are a lot of proteins out there that taste worse.
    I just mix em up and chug when I buy a bad tub.


    I also mix mine with oats and peanut butter (youd have to buy PB tho)^^ and make "proats" or "sludge"

    check out bodybuilding.com and search for those terms, you'll find some great recipes. Bodybuilders get creative.

    I use Dymatize Whey Protein Powder and it's REALLY good tasting. Mixing it with Almond Milk is a breeze to drink.
