Equipment

  • Tablespoon or small cookie scoop

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Start by placing ½ cup of peanut butter and ¼ cup of honey into a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave the mixture on high for about 20-30 seconds until softened. Remove and stir until smooth.
  2. Add 1 cup of vanilla protein powder into the melted mixture. Stir until a thick dough forms. If too crumbly, add a tablespoon of milk or water to soften.
  3. Gently fold in ¼ cup of rainbow sprinkles until evenly distributed without overmixing.
  4. Use a tablespoon to portion the dough and roll each portion into 1-inch balls. This should yield about 12-15 balls.
  5. Roll each ball in extra sprinkles until fully coated for added sweetness and visual appeal.
  6. Refrigerate the rolled protein balls on a parchment-lined tray for about 20 minutes to firm up before enjoying.
