Instructions

Step 1

Combine all the ingredients together until dough forms. If your dough is dry (depending on the protein powder you use) you may want to add a tbsp of melted coconut oil to bring things together to form a cookie dough texture).

Step 2

Frost with your favorite frosting. I use the Simple Mills or Birch Bender brands, to keep this whole-foods based. Or you can make your own cashew frosting. I added a little pomegranate juice to my frosting to make it the pink color. Frost & place in the freezer for an hour or two to firm up before cutting into bars.

Step 3

Store in the freezer & let thaw a few minutes before eating.
