After seeing so much Easter candy in the stores, I knew I had to create some protein versions for you. Ditch the artificial sugary stuff, and make yourself some Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Eggs!

bitten chocolate covered protein peanut butter egg drizzled in peanut butter on a white plate and surrounded by colored paper shreds — Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Eggs

I like to keep my recipes as simple as possible. The filling for these Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Eggs is made from natural peanut butter, Warrior Blend protein powder, and a little water. Simple as that! And the coating is a 3-ingredient chocolate made from coconut oil, cacao powder, and stevia. A delicious combination!

There's no baking involved here, so it's a quick recipe, too. After mixing the filling ingredients and forming egg-shaped mounds, mix up the chocolate coating and give the eggs a double dip. A few minutes in the freezer, and they're set!

For the peanut butter drizzle (not included in the macros), warm some peanut butter and mix with a little melted coconut oil.

With these sugar-free Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Eggs, you can skip the store-bought Easter candy and still feel like you are indulging! Give them a try!

Ingredients

Peanut butter protein filling:

¼ cup natural peanut butter 64g
¼ cup Warrior Blend Vanilla protein powder 25g
2 tablespoons filtered water 30ml

Chocolate coating

2 tablespoons raw coconut oil 28g, warmed to liquid
2 tablespoons raw cacao powder 11g
1 packet stevia 1g

Instructions

Mix the peanut butter and Warrior Blend protein powder, adding the water as necessary.
Line a small tray with parchment paper.
Form the peanut butter protein mix into egg-shaped mounds, and place on parchment-lined tray.
Put the peanut butter protein eggs in the freezer for a few minutes, and mix the ingredients for the chocolate coating.
Remove the peanut butter protein eggs from the freezer. Using a fork, dip each in the chocolate coating, and then place back on parchment-lined tray.
Place the tray in the freezer for a few minutes, then repeat the previous step, giving each piece a double coating of chocolate.
Freeze for a few minutes more to set.
If desired, drizzle with some warm peanut butter mixed with a little melted coconut oil (not included in the macros here).
Enjoy! and store in the refrigerator.

Notes

A note about substitutions: If you use whey protein in place of the Warrior Blend protein, you'll need less water and you'll want to freeze them a little longer (~15 minutes) before dipping in the chocolate coating. You can use cocoa powder in place of the cacao powder. You can also substitute other natural sweeteners in place of the stevia.
