✅ Press the base layer firmly into the pan for a solid foundation.
✅ Chill between layers to keep them distinct and well-formed.
✅ Use high-quality dark chocolate (70% or higher) for a rich taste.
✅ Store in the freezer for a firmer, candy bar-like texture. Or store in an airtight container in the fridge for a softer texture. Both options are delicious!
How to Make it - Can't get easier!
Step 1: Make the Base Layer
1. In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, 1 scoop of protein powder, honey, and milk. Stir until the mixture forms a dough-like consistency. Add more milk, one teaspoon at a time, if needed to bring the mixture together.
2. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper and press the dough evenly into the bottom of the pan. Use your hands or the back of a spoon to smooth it out.
3. Place the pan in the freezer while you prepare the second layer.
Step 2: Make the Middle Layer
1. In the same bowl (no need to wash it), mix together applesauce, 1 scoop of protein powder, and PB Fit powder until smooth.
2. Remove the loaf pan from the freezer and spread this mixture evenly over the base layer.
3. Return the pan to the freezer for about 30 minutes to firm up.
Step 3: Make the Chocolate Topping
1. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt dark chocolate chips and coconut oil in 15-second intervals, stirring between each interval until smooth. 2. Pour the melted chocolate over the middle layer and spread it evenly with a spatula or spoon.
3. Sprinkle a pinch of sea salt on top for added flavor.
Step 4: Chill and Serve
1. Place the pan back in the freezer until the chocolate hardens (about 10–15 minutes).
2. Once set, remove from the pan using the parchment paper, slice into bars, and enjoy!
