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:
- Bet you can't eat these without smiling (I couldn't anyways)
- You'll have a hard time believing these are "protein" truffles
- If you do roll the outsides in peanut flour...don't forget to grab some milk
- 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)
- If you'd like the truffles to harden up a bit, just refrigerate them for 30 minutes or so
