Protein Cookie Dough Bark

Ingredients

• 1 cup almond flour
• 1/2 cup vanilla protein powder
• 1/4 cup coconut oil (melted)
• 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
• 1 1/2 cups dark chocolate chips (divided)
• 4 ounces semi-sweet or bittersweet chocolate (chopped)
• 1 teaspoon coconut oil
• Sprinkles
• Mini M&M candies (I used peanut butter)
• Crushed peppermints

Steps

1. 1

   In a mixing bowl, stir together the almond flour, protein powder, coconut oil, and maple syrup until evenly combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.

2. 2

   Line a baking sheet that will fit in your freezer with parchment paper. Press the cookie dough into an even layer on top. Pop into the freezer to set for about 30 minutes.

3. 3

   Place a heatproof bowl on top of a saucepan of simmering water (don't let the water boil). Add the chocolate. Melt gently, stirring often with a rubber spatula, until the pieces are nearly melted completely. Remove the bowl from the pan. Add the coconut oil, then continue stirring until smoothly combined.

4. 4

   Pour the chocolate over the cookie dough bark and spread into an even layer. Immediately add your toppings of choice. Let set a few minutes, then break into pieces and enjoy!
