- Melt dark chocolate with coconut oil, pour it over the base, and spread evenly. Refrigerate for about 30 minutes, then slice and enjoy.
Notes
- Adjust the texture as needed: The dough should be soft and easy to handle. If it feels too dry, add a little water. If it’s too sticky, add a bit more protein powder.
- Press firmly: When shaping the mixture, press it down really well into the container. This helps the bars hold together and gives that perfect fudgy bite.
- Use a hot knife for clean slices: Run your knife under hot water, dry it, then slice for neat, bakery-style bars.
