Ingredients
- 100g white chocolate (melted)
150g peanut butter (melted) 2 scoops Impact Whey Protein (Vanilla) - 1 tbsp. maple syrup

Method
- First, prepare a cupcake tray with 6 cake cases. Then melt half of the white chocolate and pour a layer into each cake case. Chill in the fridge until set.
- Now mix together the melted peanut butter, vanilla protein, and maple syrup — you should get quite a solid, almost dough-like consistency. Divide this into the 6 cupcake moulds on top of the white chocolate layer.
- Add the remaining melted white chocolate on top of the peanut butter filling and chill in the fridge again until set, usually around 1 hour.
- Enjoy immediately or keep in the fridge for when you’re craving something sweet.
