¡Hola! I’m writing today from the island of San Cristobal in the Galapagos! I’ve been a bit disconnected out here, but I’m excited to have Wi-Fi today and give you this recipe for delicious Chocolate Chili Peanut Protein Chews!

While I was on Kauai, I loved cooking and baking with local ingredients. I found some Thai chili peppers and thought they’d be great in a recipe with chocolate. Add in some peanut protein, and these Chocolate Chili Peanut Protein Chews were born!

I did a bunch of adventure sports while on Kauai, and it was great to have a kitchen and make most of my own food and snacks. In case you missed them, I also made Meyer Lemon and Starfruit Protein Cupcakes, Tropical Protein Truffles, Thai Peanut Protein Cake, and Banana Pudding Protein Cake, all with Jamie Eason’s line of protein powders from Labrada. They travel quite easily, packed in eco-friendly bags!

And in case you’re interested, I’ll post a link to some travel photos when I return from the Galapagos. This place is amazing, too!

Notes
A note about substitutions: because each type of protein powder has a distinct flavor and texture when baked, I would not try substituting different types of protein powders in this recipe. (See my Recipe Basics video for examples of what goes wrong when you use the wrong protein powder.) You may be able to use powdered peanut butter like PB2 in place of the peanut protein, but you'd want to add some sweetener.
