Don't worry about the marshmallows in these - they only contribute a few calories. If they bother you that much leave them out...they're still good.

Premise - carbs from oats, good protein, good taste...

Ingredients:

8 scoops chocolate whey protein powder

2 cups rolled oats

1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs

1/4 cup cocoa powder, unsweetened

1/3 cup malt-sweetened chocolate chips

1 cup mini marshmallows

1/2 cup granulated Splenda (or a few packets)

1/4 tsp salt

1/2 to 3/4 cup unsweetened applesauce

Instructions:

In a dry blender, process 1 cup of the rolled oats into flour. Add the oat flour to the remaining cup of rolled oats in a large bowl, and mix with the remaining dry ingredients. After the dry ingredients are thoroughly mixed together, add 1/2 cup of the applesauce and stir. If mixture is too dry, add more applesauce 1 tbsp at a time. It will seem like there is not enough applesauce at first, but keep stirring, and it will mix. Try to use as little applesauce as possible, because it’s easy to make the mixture too saucy.

Cut 8 squares of aluminum foil, about 6X10 inches each. Lightly coat the interior with a cooking spray. Spoon out an equal portion of the mixture onto each foil square, and roll them into a bar shape. I fold them like tamales, folding the ends over as well.

Bake the bars in the foil in a preheated oven at 350-degrees F, for 15-18 minutes. *Be sure not to overcook*

Makes 8 bars.

Macronutrient Profile (each bar):

K/cal - 295

Protein – 27 g

Fat – 6 g (3.2s, 1.7m, 1.1p)

Carbohydrates – 35 g (5 g fiber; 11 g sugar)

Yeah, John was kind enough to email it to me last week. Can't wait to try it. I go grocery shopping on Sunday for the week, and I am getting the ingredients. Thanks again, John. You are a genius!

NICE website, John! I bet you can attract the attention of some co-eds with that site.

Hey Johnka, I am going to substitute the applesauce for yogurt, cause I aint got applesauce right now. I also only have ON Whey Vanilla ice cream so I will try these 2 substitues and let you know how it turns out.

I followed the recipe, except I used 2 fat free chocolate pudding instead of applesauce and vanilla whey. They turned out really good. I like them, and mine have a bit more sugar cause of the pudding. Next time I will try the yogurt.
