Triple Chocolate Protein Bars

This is actually the first protein bar recipe I tried, and the one that received the best reviews. It was also probably the easiest, though they are all fairly similar, and definitely the most chocolaty. I am not going to give away the recipe for this one - it is just too yummy and deceptive, and if I reveal the ingredients, I may not have so many willing tasters anymore, and my baking may not be trusted again. (Hint, the ingredients are high protein, see High Protein Ingredients at the link here).

I will go through the procedure of this recipe, but I won't give away the details of the actual recipe. Basically it is a recipe I created myself where I combined some high protein ingredients, some healthy grains, some healthy sweeteners, and a good dose of cocoa powder and chocolate chips. To give them a little extra presentation and flavor, I drizzled a little melted chocolate over them after baking as well.

The result? A fudgey, dense, and oh-so chocolaty brownie-like bar. Yes, the texture is not as light and fluffy as a brownie, but it basically seems like a healthy brownie. I was told it tasted just like a Vector bar, but I've never had one so I cannot confirm that, nor am I sure if that is a good thing or not. The bars were gobbled up while still warm - so they were a little messy, but finger-licking good. And I assure you, they are indeed a healthy, high-protein bar that id great on the go (though perhaps a tad rich for breakfast).
