Protein Peanut Butter Truffles

June 13, 2016 By Holly

Happy Monday everybody!! I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend and I thought maybe it would be cool to start the week with another non super duper,  crazy bad for you recipe today, but these are so good I promise you won’t be disappointed. 

protein-peanut-butter-truffles-cls| HollysCheatDay.comI have been seeing variations of this recipe on different fitness Youtubers that I follow and though I’m usually suspicious at how tasty ‘healthy’ or ‘high protein’ recipes actually are, these were not disappointing, at all.  These are crazy satisfying, super easy to make, and the perfect mixture of salty and sweet, and hello peanut butter. 


protein-peanut-butter-truffles-bite| HollysCheatDay.comAlso, there is zero guilt in eating these, because these are pretty darn healthy for you too.  Do note that these little protein peanut butter balls definitely need to be kept refrigerated because they tend to be a bit soft at room temperature, but other than that these are awesome.  Thank you so much for stopping by and have a wonderful day!!

    I just want to let you know that I tried this today and absolutely loved it. I have been a vegan for almost 2 months and never knew this stuff could taste so good. While I still have cravings for a good steak once in a while, recipes like this keep me fro cheating so thanks so much :).
