Ingredients
- 4 or 5 tbs Organic Coconut Oil or MCT Oil
- 1/3 cup Cacao Powder
- 1 tbs Vegan Chocolate Keto Protein Powder
- 2 tbs Organic Nut Butter (optional)
- 1/2 tsp Organic Mushroom Powder (optional)
- 1/2 tsp Maca Powder (optional)
- 5 to 10 drops Liquid Stevia
- 1/3 cup Chopped Gluten Free Pretzels
- 1/3 cup Puffed Rice Cereal Unsweetened
- Gluten Free Sprinkles (no artificial dyes)
Instructions
In a pot melt the organic coconut oil at the lowest heat. Slowly add in about 2 tbs of cacao powder at a time and stir often. Now add in the vegan chocolate protein powder, liquid stevia and optional mushroom powder and maca powder. Keep stirring often to ensure ingredients are well mixed. Optionally, you can also add 2 tbs of your favourite nut butter until it is the consistency of melted chocolate. Split the chocolate mixture into two pots and slowly add the chopped pretzels in one pot and the puffed rice in the other. Stir each to coat them in the chocolate mixture. Once coated remove from heat. Take the heart shaped metal cookie cutters and place them on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Fill each heart shaped cookie cutter with either the pretzel or puffed rice mixture. Top each heart with gluten free sprinkles that are not made with food dye or gluten. Lastly, gently place the cookie sheet in the freezer for approximately 2 hours. Remove from the freezer and enjoy!
