- 3 tablespoons maple syrup
- 3 tablespoons protein powder of choice
- 1 tablespoon + 2 teaspoons ginger powder

Instructions
- Step 1: Combine all ingredients, except the chocolate, in a large bowl. Stir with a spatula until it resembles a thick dough.
- Step 2: Roll the dough into ping-pong sized balls.
- Step 3: Melt the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl (or use a double boiler) in 20 second intervals. Stir the chips between intervals, taking care that they do not burn. If you’re having trouble melting, you can add in a few spoonfuls of coconut oil.
- Step 4: Drizzle or dunk the ginger balls into the melted chocolate. Place on a piece of parchment paper. Repeat with all remaining balls. Freeze to harden.
- Serve: Enjoy these directly out of the freezer for a chewy treat. Let it sit on the counter for 5 minutes to soften.
