Ingredients

  • 1 cup pumpkin purée
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt
  • 0.66 cup monkfruit
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1 cup dark cocoa powder
  • 2 scoops protein
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt
  • 0.33 cup powdered monk fruit
  • 0.5 scoops protein
  • tbsp sf jelly-o pudding mix
  • 4 Oreo thins
  • 2 tbsp oil for chocolate drizzle

Tips

  • Use regular pumpkin, not organic (organic pumpkin has a stronger pumpkin taste).
  • Sweet potato puree is the best alternative
  • Replace monkfruit with any granulated sweetener.
  • Use dark cocoa powder for best flavor. (Dark cocoa also hides the pumpkin better).
  • Use a high quality protein that mixes well
  • Do not overbake or they will lose fudginess! take them out right when toothpick comes out clean.
  • Put them in the fridge! The texture and flavor is even better chilled.
