Take a Table spoon of peanut butter

Actually there is a similar recipe on here that I read the other day, except instead of rolling it into a ball and freezing it you use the mixture as "icing" on rice cakes or shit like that...either way it sounds good, and damn easy. Peace.

i make these all the time, they are a great late night snack, i usually keep one beside my bed and eat it when i wake up through the night... i like to use crunchy peanut butter for some added texture... good recipe brother

word of warning. they taste like crap when you puke them up. found that out today
OMG, this seriouslly is the answer to all my problems about not knowing what sweet I want to eat because Im on such a strict diet. I havent had a candy bar in I dunno how long and this will cut my cravings for sure.
Im so stoked to make these right now and try them tomorrow at work. I have a fridge and freezer but I gotta defrost the freezer at work.
Im the only one who uses them so thats a plus too.

that's a good idea. i used to do the honey too but i decided to cut it cuz of the added sugar.

The whole idea with adding oats makes it exactly like the no-bake cookies we used to get in grade school. Except these have about 30g protein

Do you guys add a ton of ingredients together in a bowl, then roll individual balls, or do you add enough ingredients into the bowl for one ball, then roll?

I make about ten at a time and freeze them.

it do it one at a time so i can be exact with the nutritional value in each one. i used to mix all of em togther at once then just make a large loaf of it and cut a piece off when i was hungry.
look tasty have you done them with different flavors of pro?

is it just me, or does anyone else think these would be really good straight out of the freezer and eaten like cereal in a bowl with milk on them?

Thanks for that word of warning bro. I just ate some of these, and I was planning on puking them up, but thanks to your advice I think I will reconsider.
Keep those words of wisdom coming.

I know it has been asked but it hasn't been answered... How long do you freeze them? I wanna do these tonight so should I live'em in the fridge/freezer over the night? or is that too much

On top of that, which is a good question, is there a more exact recipe, like how much milk? I would be really pissed if I fucked it up and wasted a bunch of good peanut butter and protein...

well, I just made the stuff, don't add too much milk, only a tiny drop ... honestly if you mix it too easy you probably added too much milk
also I just rolled the balls into some instant cooking oats, it kinda looks like a rafaello bon bon, if you know what that is

Thanks man, that helps... and I have got PLENTY of oats, I will have to make these soon.

whenever i've made them I've just used one scoop that came with the whey per PB ball

I just got done making some, and by sprinkling some flour on the mixture and dusting my hands with it, it was alot easier to mix it and make it into the balls. Cant wait to try it, finally something thas cheap AND convenient.
Is it ok to substitute water for the milk? And one ball equals over 25 grams of protein? Is it decent for a cut?

yes, you might not even need water... I only use a splash of milk, and I mean about 1 oz or less
we can't tell you how muc protein the ball is gonna have... if you use 50g of whey and you make 5 balls, then one ball is gonna have 10g of whey protein (and a bit of protein from the pb)
it's decent for cut/bulk if it fits your macros

definitely try it bro... it tastes kinda like snickers (especially if you use crunchy pb) and you're eating clean food
This sounds really good, except if you puke it up. LOL.

idk about one big batch, I usually roll them into medium sized balls... as I said earlier it helps a lot if you roll them in some oats, so they don't become sticky
I just put'em in the freezer on a plate, an hour or two is plenty but sometimes I leave'em there for the next day
