Butterfinger Inspired Protein Stuffed Dates with Peanut Butter & Chocolate
These stuffed dates with peanut butter taste just like butterfingers and they're packed full of protein! The filling is made with peanut butter, protein powder, crunchy rice krispies, and honey. Each one is drizzled with chocolate and sprinkled with flaky salt.
Ingredients
- ½ cup Vanilla Protein Powder
- ½ cup Crunchy Peanut Butter
- ⅓ cup Honey
- ⅓ cup Rice Krispies
- 24 oz Dates (or about 30 medium sized dates or so)
- ½ cup Dark Chocolate Chips
- 1 teaspoon Coconut Oil
- 1 teaspoon Flaky Salt
Instructions
- Mix together protein powder, crunchy peanut butter, honey, and Rice Krispies until everything is mixed together and combined.
- Remove the pit from about the dates and stuff with 1 teaspoon or so of the protein mixture. If dates are larger, use more.
- Once they’re all stuffed, add your chocolate and coconut oil to a microwave safe glass dish and microwave for 30 seconds at a time, stirring between sessions, until chocolate is melted and hot.
- Drizzle melted chocolate over the top of the stuffed dates and finish with a sprinkle of flaky salt.
- Place in the fridge for at least 30 minutes for the chocolate to harden before serving or adding to a ziplocok bag or tupperware.
Notes
These are best kept in the fridge for around 1.5 weeks.
