Notes

Modified Versions:
  1. Sweetened Chocolate Protein-Powder: Use one large scoop of protein powder. Omit the dates and agave. Halve or omit the added cocoa powder, depending on how chocolate-y you like it. You can omit or keep the pumpkin seeds, depending on taste and texture preference.
  2. Unsweetened Chocolate Protein Powder: Keep the dates and agave and halve the cocoa powder. You can omit or keep the pumpkin seeds, depending on taste and texture preference.
  3. Protein Boosted Version: Keep everything the same as listed in the original recipe, but add in a half scoop of either sweetened or unsweetened protein powder. Flavor will vary, but this adds a bit more protein.
