Sometimes you just want something sweet, right? Most sweets are high in sugar and fat with little or no protein. These no-bake bites are packed with flavor, provide 4 grams of protein and 2 grams of fiber, and are chewy, crunchy and delicious. They also freeze beautifully and can be used for workouts or an end-of-day petit treat. Bon Appetit!
