PB + Choc Protein Squares

1. In a mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter and honey (or maple syrup) until well blended.
2. Stir in the protein powder and salt until everything is evenly combined. The mixture should be thick and sticky.
3. Line an 8x8 inch baking dish with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides for easy removal later.
4. Press the mixture evenly into the lined baking dish using a spatula or your hands, making sure it’s tightly packed.
5. Drizzle with chocolate now or wait until after cutting.
6. Place the baking dish in the refrigerator for at least 1-2 hours to chill and firm up.
7. Once chilled, lift the parchment paper to remove the peanut butter protein mixture from the baking dish. Place it on a cutting board and cut into squares or bars of your desired size.
8. If you didn't add chocolate before, you can do it now (or totally omit) and top with flakey sea salt if using.
9. Store the PB protein squares in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week and enjoy!
