Dark Double Chocolate Coconut Protein Macaroons

Ingredients

  • 2 cups coconut flakes or shredded coconut
  • 1 scoop Solgar® Grass Fed Whey to Go® chocolate protein powder
  • 2 tbsp granulated stevia (or preferred sweetener)
  • 2 tbsp pure maple syrup
  • 1 tbsp milk
  • 1 tbsp dark chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350F. Add coconut flakes to food processor. Blend until just before it starts to get paste like (before it turns into coconut butter).
  • Add protein powder, stevia, maple syrup, and milk. Blend briefly until a smooth batter is formed.
  • Spray a baking sheet with nonstick spray or line with parchment paper. Use a 1 1/2 tbsp. cookie scoop to scoop out 8 macaroons onto baking sheet.
  • Bake for 8 minutes. The bottom edges of the macaroons should be golden brown. Let macaroons completely cool.
  • Once cooled, melt dark chocolate chips. Put melted dark chocolate into a small plan storage bag. Cut off the end and pipe a drizzle of chocolate over top of each macaroon.
  • If desired, add a sprinkle of coconut over top.
