Recipe: Whey Protein Chocolate Fudge Brownies
I love making these to bring to work as snacks during the week. I developed this recipe after I realized how much money I was spending ducking into the gym after work to pick up my favorite whey protein brownie snacks. Instead of quitting my habit, I decided to make my own! These brownies make great snacks for people on the go who have demanding training schedules. If you need to eat every few hours but you’re sick of chicken and rice, try these treats.
