These look delicious I can’t wait to try them!!!
Made these for myself, my son, along with a few of his football teammates….they loved it! I’m making the Protein bars next! Thanks for the recipes. 🙂
That is AWESOME! Love feedback like this. Thanks for letting me know how they came out. They will LOVE the protein bars!
These are delicious. I’ve made these about 3 times total now and they are best when you can sift in the powdered ingredients (to prevent clumps) but either way these are easy and great.
Glad you liked them. One of my first (and favorite) quick recipes!
So you have to eat 4 cups for the 160 calories?
Yes!
Can’t wait to try!:) Can i bring it on the way?
They melt so probably not unless you have a portable way to keep them cool! I hope you like them though!
This is a genius idea! Get that fix for chocolate peanut butter cups without eating the sugar and fat bomb of the real thing. Question for you, Derek. Do you have any tips for eating when you aren’t cooking? For example, family get-togethers at holidays, going to someone else’s house for dinner, etc.
Hey Eric! Thank you. I’ll do a video or article on this topic! I get asked it ton. Let me see how fast I can get it up!
Hey Derek! I am a vegetarian but really want to make this. What can I substitute the egg white with? I am thinking milk or vanilla Greek yogurt or something with a liquid consistency that also has protein?
Let me know.
Thanks
You could definitely try Greek yogurt! You could also blend some cottage cheese up and use some extracts to flavor it (if you like cottage cheese).
Have you tried making these with PB2?
Not yet! Maybe I should throw together another video on these with some different combinations!
can I use shakeology as the protein powder?
Thanks:)
Absolutely Joyce!
Derek, your recipes are amazing and make cutting so easy and so much fun. thanks a lot and keep up the great work!
Thanks Rushil! 🙂
Just made my first batch using mint choc protein powder cant wait to try them
Hi! I’ve really been wanting to try your recipes but I’ve got a question on this one. How much is 40 grams of protein powder in cups? Also, do you think you could come up with an ingredient substitution chart for whenever we’re out of or don’t like an ingredient? Thanks 🙂
