Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Brownies |
Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Brownies*
1 (16 ounce) jar peanut butter (or almond butter)
ready to mix together |
1 1/4 C. pure maple syrup
1 T. pure vanilla extract
1/2 C. dark cocoa powder
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1 C. dark chocolate chips
Blend together the peanut butter, eggs, maple syrup and vanilla. Sift together and then blend in the cocoa powder, baking soda and salt. Fold in chocolate chips, reserving 1/8 cup to sprinkle on top of the brownies. Pour batter into a 9 x 13 inch greased pan. Bake at 325 degrees for 35 - 40 minutes.
* You can easily substitute any nut butter you prefer instead of peanut butter (almond butter is my other favorite), and for a slightly more indulgent version, add in 8 ounces of melted dark (70% cocoa) chocolate.
