  • 2 tbsp mocha protein powder (I use Vega Brand)

  • 1 16 oz package dark chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Place all of the ingredients besides the cocoa, protein powder and espresso in a food processor and process until combined.

  3. Place mixture in the freezer until somewhat firm, about 20 minutes.

  4. Roll mixture into 1" balls (about 1 tbsp worth) and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

  5. Place back in the freezer to chill for 30 minutes.

  6. Melt dark chocolate in the microwave or broiler style. Transfer into a deep cup or bowl for easy dipping.
