Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Truffles

'

Can you tell I've been on a protein truffle kick lately?

Is it really that apparent?

I think I might have developed a protein truffle obsession. I can't get enough of these lately, and I'm totally ok with that.

5 things you need to know about these:

1. Bet you can't eat these without smiling (I couldn't anyways)
2. You'll have a hard time believing these are "protein" truffles
3. If you do roll the outsides in peanut flour...don't forget to grab some milk
4. Add your coconut oil in 1 teaspoon at a time (protein powders vary in consistency so you may need more or less to form your truffles)
5. If you'd like the truffles to harden up a bit, just refrigerate them for 30 minutes or so
