I just found this recipe online and thought I would share it. FYI, I JUST made these now so I haven't eaten them but I taste-tested a bit of the "batter" and they seem great to me and sooo easy to make!
1/3 cup natural peanut butter
1/4 cup honey
1 scoop chocolate whey protein powder
3 tbsp ground flaxseed
3 tbsp dark chocolate chips
Don't do anything at all but mix it in a bowl until it is combined. The batter will be thick, but all of the powdery stuff should be incorporated (it took awhile several minutes of stirring for that to happen for me, but it does happen--don't add any extra liquid to it!)
Make into balls! Obviously, the calorie and protein content will depend on the brands of peanut butter and protein powder you use. My powder has a bit less protein than average (I use Jillian Michaels brand right now because it is the cheapest one I could find). It would also depend on how many balls you make. The person who made this recipe made 14 balls. Mine made 10, and I wouldn't want them any smaller than that.
If you decide to make them, let me know how they turn out and if you like them!
