"Today's recipe doesn’t contain any protein powder, instead the protein comes from chickpeas. I haven’t been a huge fan of chickpeas before, but with this recipe we became best friends. THIS TURNED OUT DELICIOUS and the truffles really melt in your mouth🤤
The truffle consists of a fudgy cookie dough base, made from chickpeas, followed by a layer of gooey salted caramel to finally be covered in chocolate with no added sugar. There is, like always, no added sugar in this recipe. I don’t think I need to say much more 🙈😋 It is definitely one of my best recipes."

Method
Step 1

Step 2
n a bowl, mix together chickpeas and peanut butter to a thick batter. Add all the other ingredients and mix again. Taste so you are happy with the amount of sweetener. Finally, stir in the chopped chocolate.
Step 3
Roll into 15-20 balls and let it cool in the refrigerator while you are making the salted caramel sauce.
Step 4
Salted caramel layer In a saucepan, mix water and vita fiber at low temperature (3 out of 9). When you can see it boiling in the corners, it is almost done.
Step 5
Add NJIE protein milkshake to the saucepan and stir around (constantly) with a spoon at mid-temperature (3/4 out of 9). It took me about 10 minutes until I was happy with the consistency of the salted caramel sauce.
