Chocolate Protein Puppy Chow
Ingredients
1 scoop Prodough Chocolate Mousse Whey Protein Powder
¾ cup chocolate melting chips
2 tbsp milk of choice
¼ cup peanut butter
5 cups rice or corn chex cereal
⅓ cup powdered sugar or powdered sugar alternative
Directions:
- Add whey, chocolate melting chips, milk, and peanut butter to a small saucepan over medium heat, whisking frequently. Heat until the mixture becomes a silky, homogeneous mixture.
- Add cereal and melted chocolate mixture to a large mixing bowl, and gently stir until the cereal is evenly coated.
- Add powdered sugar to the mixture and lightly toss until the cereal is coated. Transfer to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, and spread into a thin layer. Refrigerate until the chocolate hardens, about 20 minutes. Break into chunks, and enjoy!
- Note: extra credit! Mix the powdered sugar with a scoop of vanilla whey for some bonus protein in every bite!
