How To Make It:

Blend the base: In a food processor or blender, combine drained beans, protein powder, sugar, salt, and peanut butter. Blend until smooth and dough-like.
Mix in chocolate: Stir in chocolate chips or chopped chocolate until evenly distributed.
Press into tray: Line a container or small tray with baking paper. Press the cookie dough mixture into the base. Freeze for 15–20 minutes to firm.
Make the caramel layer: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt peanut butter and coconut oil. Stir until smooth and pour over the firm base. Return to the freezer for 1 hour.
Drizzle: Melt dark chocolate using microwave or stovetop. Let cool slightly.
Slice with ease: Remove tray from freezer and slice into squares. Use a warm knife to get clean edges.
Final touch: Drizzle melted chocolate over the top. Store slices in an airtight container in the freezer and enjoy chilled!
