Instructions

  • Line a 7 x 5-inch loaf pan or dish with parchment paper on the bottom and sides leaving some overhanging to act as a handle tog et the bars out easier for cutting.

Bar Base

    Add more milk if too dry, coconut flour if too wet. Taste test and add more honey or vanilla extract if you think it needs it.
    Scoop half the dough mixture into the lined pan and spread out evenly using the back of a spoon. Adding half of the sprinkles randomly partway.

Protein Frosting

  • In a bowl, mix vanilla protein powder, yogurt and coconut flour until smooth. Mixture should be thick but smooth and spreadable. Add milk if too thick, coconut flour if too thin.

    Place in freezer another 10 minutes while you melt the chocolate drizzle topping.
