Ingredients
- Shortbread
- 1 cup Almond Flour
- 1/4 cup Vanilla Protein Powder
- 2 Tbsp Coconut Oil, Melted
- 2 Tbsp Pure Maple Syrup
- Caramel
- 1/3 cup Cashew Butter
- 2 1/2 Tbsp Pure Maple Syrup
- 1 Tbsp Coconut Oil, Melted
- 1 whole Collagen, 1 scoop
- 1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract
- Coating

And YES this is the same recipe as my viral Protein Twix Bars, just in a fun and festive heart shape!
Process
- Combine shortbread ingredients together, then press down into the bottoms of your hearts. Place in the freezer while you make the caramel
- Mix together drippy nut butter, syrup, vanilla, coconut oil, and collagen until smooth
- Pour overtop shortbread layer and freeze for 30min+
- Melt chocolate and coconut oil. You will have extra, but you want enough to dunk your bars to fully coat
- Dip your hearts in chocolate, dab to allow excess to drip off, then place on parchment paper
- Optionally sprinkle with flakey sea salt
Find the heart mold I used HERE
Well worth the few bucks. Use it to make my Reese’s hearts or Reese’s S’mores Hearts! (yes these are basically like a reeses and a smores had a [healthy] baby!!)
I love that these are no bake and made with wholesome ingredients- a true act of love showing your Valentine you care about their health and what they put into their body!
Variations for Dietary Preferences
- Peanuts – can sub for cashew butter or sunbutter
- Almond flour – can sub for oat flour in the shortbread base. If it’s too crumbly add a little bit more syrup
- Coconut oil – can sub for another neutral oil, such as algae oil or avocado oil
- Protein powder – can be subbed for oat flour
- Collagen – if you’d prefer not to use it just leave it out. It adds a bit to the gooeyness, but the caramel will still taste great without it
