The Reward (Instructions):

Blend the Base: Add medjool dates, oat flour, vanilla protein powder, and peanut butter to a food processor. Blend until you get a thick, sticky dough. If it’s too dry, add 1–2 teaspoons of water and blend again.
-
Form the Balls: Scoop out about a tablespoon of the mixture, roll it into a smooth ball, and place it on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Insert a toothpick into each ball and freeze for 10-15 minutes.

Melt the Chocolate: In the meantime, melt the dark chocolate chips with coconut oil. Use a microwave or double boiler until smooth. Pour into a narrow cup for easy dipping.
-
Dip and Decorate: Remove the balls from the freezer and dip each one halfway into the melted chocolate using the toothpick. Place them back on parchment, twist out the toothpick, and smooth over the hole with your finger.
- Chill and Enjoy: Let the chocolate set in the fridge until firm. Enjoy your high-protein indulgence!
