Ingredients

½ cup chocolate pea protein blend 50g
¼ cup chocolate whey protein powder 23g
1 tablespoon coconut butter 16g
few drops butterscotch flavor
¼ cup water 59ml
1 tablespoon honey 15ml, or agave nectar
2 tablespoons shredded unsweetened coconut 15g

Instructions

Mix the protein powders in a bowl, and set aside.
Mix the coconut butter, butterscotch flavor, water, and honey in a separate bowl.
Pour the wet mix into the protein powders, and mix until combined.
Form mix into balls or bars. Coat in shredded coconut.
Freeze for 15 minutes to firm up (or refrigerate for a few hours, or just eat them soft!).
Enjoy! Store in the refrigerator.

Notes

A note about substitutions: because each type of protein powder has a distinct flavor and texture, I would not try substituting different types of protein powders in this recipe. If you don't like coconut, replace the coconut butter with any kind of nut butter, and omit the shredded coconut coating.
