Instructions

1

Mix the ingredients

Combine all main ingredients in a bowl, adding milk gradually until the dough holds together without being sticky.

5 min
Protein powder absorbs liquid differently by brand—start with 15 ml milk and add more as needed.
2

Roll into balls

Scoop the dough and roll into 6 evenly-sized balls with clean hands.

5 min
Lightly wet hands to prevent sticking.
3

Freeze the balls

Place the balls on a plate and freeze for 30 minutes to firm up before coating.

30 mintimer 30 min
This prevents the balls from falling apart when dipped in chocolate.
4

Melt the chocolate

Microwave the dark chocolate and coconut oil together in 20-second bursts, stirring between each, until smooth.

2 min
Do not overheat—chocolate can seize if too hot.
5

Dip and finish

Dip each chilled ball into the melted chocolate, letting excess drip off, then sprinkle with flaky sea salt.

5 min
Work quickly so the chocolate coating sets evenly.
6

Chill to set

Refrigerate the coated balls until the chocolate is completely set, about 3-5 minutes.
