These espresso-chocolate nutty protein cups are the perfect pre-workout fuel
These espresso-chocolate nutty protein cups are the perfect fusion of almonds, coffee and dark chocolate. A perfect pre-workout bite.
Ingredients
28g Whey Protein Pow mix
2tbsp almond butter
1tbsp of your sweetener of choice (try Sukrin’s granulated erythritol, coconut sugar or granulated stevia)
20ml freshly-brewed espresso, to bind
Method
Melt your chocolate in a bain marie (a glass bowl on top of a pot of boiling water).
As the chocolate melts, make the filling of your cups by mixing the rest of the ingredients together, adding a tiny bit of coffee at a time, until you get a thick mixture. Taste the mixture, but try not to eat it all!
When the chocolate has melted, pour half of it between six truffle paper cups. Then, add a dollop of the filling on top and cover them with the rest of the melted chocolate. If you want to make them bigger, all you need is to use regular-sized muffin cups.
Put them in the fridge for 40 minutes and then just ‘unmold’ and enjoy!
