Fill each indent with1 teaspoon of the peanut butter mixture (lust divide up the mix between the popsicles). Then insert a popsicle stick into each one. Place the pops on a parchment-lined tray and freeze for 2-3 hours until firm.

Sprinkle with flaky salt if desired, then chill until chocolate has set.Once chocolate is set and crisp, enjoy your Protein Pops.
