Buckeye Protein Bites

With Valentine’s Day right around the corner, I wanted to share a better-for-you treat that has been taking care of my sweet tooth lately.  These protein-packed goodies have much less fat, sugar and calories than the originals but taste delicious!  As always, they contain AboutTime all-natural protein powder, which is by far my favorite on the market!  You can use my promo code HAPPILYHUGHES for 25% off your order!  Here are my Buckeye Protein Bites:

    This looks like a really tasty snack! I need to try using protein powder..I’m missing out!

  2. Can’t go wrong with chocolate and peanut butter, it is one of my favorite combos! Thank you for linking up with us for Meatless Monday!

  3. These look and sound so good! My boyfriend is so proud to be from Ohio, so I might have to make him a batch of these just to see him get a kick out of it. I’m looking forward to trying a batch of these for my training runs, too! Have you tried freezing them? I’m just curious if they freeze well. Thanks for sharing your recipe!

  4. I’ve never made or eaten a buckeye but adding protein is brilliant. I work with people that make them often. Think they would be open to the suggestion?

  5. Hi I’m coming over from Janelle’s post on these delicious little treats! I just had to have the recipe! I’m such a sucker for the duo of PB and chocolate! Pinning for later and also sharing this! Thanks!

  6. These look great! Chelsea had never heard of a buckeye so now I need to make these for her. Have you calculated the macros? I’d be interested to see the protein to calorie ratio.
