No Bake Protein Bar Recipe

I saw this on MyFitnessPal and I'd like to try it at some point in the future.  =)  (I just copied and pasted what the poster on MFP had typed up - including the picture.  So, none of the thoughts expressed are mine.)


Butterbean and coconut dark chocolate bars 


 

Ingredients: 

Small can of drained butter Beans (120g drained) 
40g unflavoured or vanilla protein powder, I used plain (I had ran out but I would of used about 60g) 
25g desiccated coconut
25g clear honey 
15g virgin coconut oil
15g Dark chocolate ( I used 85%) 

Blend everything in food processor except the oil and the chocolate. 

My mix was a little too runny as I ran out of powder, making them again I would use about 50-60grams instead of 40. 

Spread the mix into a flat container (Tupperware kind of thing, about 6"x 3"). If the mix were thicker then you could form bar shapes 

Freeze then cut into bars. I cut mine into 4 pieces 

Once frozen melt the oil and chocolate together and drizzle over the bars. 

Refreeze then eat! (As you can see I ate one already)
