no bake protein brownie cups

So I usually try to start my recipe posts with some kind of story or witty humour or something, but all I really want to do today is jump right in and talk about these no bake protein brownie cups so that you can hop off your computer or phone and go make them.

Which I know is presuming a lot, so I guess I should say “so that you can hear me out and decide if you wanna go make them.”…  [And then go make them]. Because honestly? HONESTLY?? These guys are pretty epic.

I mean, there are recipes where I take my first bite and I’m like… “Oh yes, this is delicious. Exactly what I was going for.” And then there are recipes where I take my first bite, my eyes go all wide, and it’s just like ho.ly.SH*T THIS IS AMAZING!!!!

These cups are part of that second group.

Ingredients

• 1 cup (180 g) vegan chocolate chips
• 1/4 cup (28 g) coconut flour
• 1/4 cup (20 g) unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1/2 cup (40 g) chocolate or vanilla protein powder*
• 6 tbsp (90 ml) non-dairy milk
• 3 tbsp (60 g) brown rice syrup**
• 3 tbsp (48 g) seed or nut butter

Directions

1. Line a muffin pan with 12 paper or silicone liners. Set aside.
2. Add 2/3 cup (120 g) of the chocolate chips to a microwave safe bowl and microwave in 1 minute increments until the chocolate is fully melted, stirring between each round. Alternatively, you can also melt the chocolate in a saucepan set over low heat.
3. One the chocolate is melted, fill each muffin liner with about 2 tsp (10 ml) of melted chocolate and use the back of a spoon to bring some of the chocolate a little over halfway up the sides to create a cup. Place the pan in the freezer to set.
4. While the chocolate is setting, prepare the brownie filling by adding the remaining ingredients (coconut flour through nut butter) to a large mixing bowl and mixing until all the ingredients are well combined and a dough forms. Depending on the ingredients you use, you may need to add a splash of extra milk or a small sprinkle of coconut flour to get the right consistency. The mixture should stick together easily when pressed without being overly sticky or wet.
5. Using a tablespoon, roll the dough between your hands to form individual balls and then flatten them slightly so that they resemble the shape of the muffin cups. Place one of these discs into each of the muffin cups and use your fingers to gently flatten them so they press up against the sides.
6. Melt the remaining 1/3 cup (60 g) of chocolate chips, and add a generous teaspoon to each of the cups to cover them up. Sprinkle on any desired toppings (salt flakes, sprinkles, shredded coconut, etc.), and then place them in the freezer for a minimum of 10 minutes to allow everything to set. Store the cups in an airtight container the fridge for up to a two weeks, or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
