Suggest a better descriptionFirst, add the peanut butter and honey in a pot that is NOT on the burner. Once you have these two ingredients in the pot you can put it over a stove on low heat and stir constantly until it’s thinned out. This should only take about 2 minutes. Remove from heat, add your protein powder and oats, and mix it up. You may need to add a little water as the mixture will get super thick. Only add a tsp at a time until it reaches a consistency that is easy to mold but not too hard. I usually end up adding about 3 tsp. I put the mixture into a 9×9 glass dish and press it out into a square. Heat up your chocolate chips (I use 30 sec intervals in the microwave mixing in between- usually takes 90 secs total), and cover the top of your protein bars with chocolate. I throw them in the freezer for a few minutes to allow the chocolate harden then cut six lines down and one across for a total of 14 bars. After enjoying 1 (or 2 or 3) keep in the fridge. I take them out about 15 minutes before eating them so they can soften a bit.
Yeah, that was it. I know. Too good to be true you may be thinking? Think again. These are everything you’ll ever dream of. Enjoy! Please note that in the photo I did use about 1/2 cup of chocolate chips. At this point I eyeball everything!
