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.
