Ingredients
  

  • 3 tablespoons coconut butter
  • 3 tablespoons cream cheese
  • 2 tablespoons Vanilla protein powder
  • 1 drop green food colouring optional
  • 1 teaspoon peppermint essence
  • 10 grams 90% dark chocolate, chopped sugar free

Instructions
 

  • Put the coconut butter and cream cheese in a microwave safe bowl.
    Microwave on high for 30 seconds and then stir to combine. Microwave for a further 20 - 30 seconds or until the butter and cheese combine completely. 
    Add the protein powder and peppermint essence (and food colouring if using) and combine thoroughly, ensuring the colour is mixed right through. 
    Once almost completely cool, stir through the dark chocolate and shape into two small bars. Refrigerate until hard. 
    These are best eaten the same day. They are reasonably firm at room temperature but are best straight out of the fridge.
