Thin Mint Protein Bars 🍫🌿
Makes 7 bars.
Ingredients
Chocolate cookie crust
• 1½ Tbsp coconut oil
• ½ Tbsp honey
• 1 Tbsp black cocoa powder
• ⅛ tsp peppermint extract
• 17 Simple Mills Chocolate Thins
Protein layer
• 3 scoops chocolate protein powder (I used chocolate )
• ¾ cup black cocoa powder
• ¼ cup monk fruit sweetener
• 1 Tbsp coconut oil, melted
• ½ tsp peppermint extract
• Up to ⅓ cup Fairlife milk
Instructions
1. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper.
2. Combine the coconut oil and honey in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave briefly until melted. Stir in the black cocoa powder and peppermint extract.
3. Pour the chocolate mixture into the lined loaf pan. Arrange the Simple Mills Chocolate Thins on top, then place the pan in the freezer while you make the protein layer.
4. In a bowl, mix the protein powder, black cocoa powder, monk fruit, melted coconut oil, and peppermint extract. Add the milk a little at a time, mixing until the mixture comes together into a thick, doughy consistency. Be careful with this, it will get doughy faster than you think so stir a lot in between. You may not need all of it.
5. Lightly wet your hands and press the protein mixture evenly over the chilled cookie crust. It will be messy but wetting your hands will help. Then use a spatula to press down and smooth it out.
6. Freeze for 30 minutes, then lift from the pan and slice into 7 bars.
