- Freezing Instructions: Layer bars in a freezer safe bag or container, with a piece of parchment paper between layers, and freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator or on the counter before eating.
- Protein Powder: Use your favorite kind. Chocolate, vanilla, or plain would all work great for this recipe, or try half protein powder and half unflavored collagen peptides.

- Chocolate Protein Bars: Use chocolate protein powder.
- Nut Butter: Swap out the peanut butter for almond butter, cashew butter, or sunflower butter.
