Weights are estimates. Together, the ingredients weigh about 440 g before cooking, which is about 75 g per serving.
Steps
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, monkfruit sweetener, protein powder, PB powder, and a pinch of salt.
Add the Premier Protein shake one tablespoon at a time, mixing thoroughly between additions, until the mixture reaches a thick, dough-like consistency that can be shaped.
Divide the dough into 6 equal portions and shape each into an egg-like oval. Place them on a tray lined with parchment paper.
Place the shaped eggs in the freezer for about 20-30 minutes to firm up before coating.
In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine the sugar-free chocolate chips and oil. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is completely smooth.
Dip each chilled egg into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is fully coated. Return the eggs to the parchment-lined tray.
Place the eggs back in the refrigerator or freezer until the chocolate coating has fully set.
Notes
To ensure the best texture, add the liquid protein shake slowly; you may need slightly more or less than 3 tbsp depending on the brand of protein powder used. Store in the refrigerator.
