Ingredients
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup runny peanut butter
- 1/2 cup vanilla protein powder
- 2 overripe large bananas
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Blend the Base: Add the peanut butter, vanilla protein powder, and overripe bananas to a food processor. Blend until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy, ensuring an even consistency.
- Fold in Chocolate Chips: Remove the blended mixture from the processor and gently fold in the chocolate chips, distributing them evenly throughout without breaking them.
- Portion into Cups: Line a muffin tin with parchment paper or use silicone muffin cups. Divide the mixture evenly among 8 cups.
- Freeze: Place the muffin cups in the freezer and allow them to set for at least 2 hours or until firm.
- Serve: Keep the fudge cups stored in the freezer. Before eating, let them sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly for best texture.
Notes
- Use overripe bananas for maximum sweetness and softness.
- Runny peanut butter works best for easy blending; if using thick peanut butter, warm it slightly.
- Vanilla protein powder adds flavor and boosts protein content; you can substitute with another flavor if desired.
- Store fudge cups in an airtight container in the freezer to maintain freshness.
- Letting them thaw for a few minutes before serving enhances the fudge cup’s creamy texture.
