- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 scoops vanilla protein powder 50-60 grams
- 2-3 Tablespoons milk any kind

- Stir very well to combine — it will seem too thick at first and can be difficult to mix, but use your muscles and it will come together. Use your hands towards the end to press in the last few bits and knead the mixture together.
- Once everything is evenly mixed, use a small cookie scoop to portion the dough into balls. Use your hands to roll them smooth. If you find that the balls are not holding together, add the extra Tablespoon of milk, or even a few drops more, to the mixture. Stir it in well and try rolling again.
- Store tightly covered in the refrigerator for up to one week. Enjoy!
