Instrucciones para la impresión en alta definición
- Line an 8-inch x 8-inch square pan with baking paper. Slightly oil the paper with oil spray and set it aside.
- Pick your favorite chocolate chips, I used 53% cocoa vegan chocolate chips, but any chocolate chips works. Use dark chocolate like 85%, for less added sugar.
- In a saucepan, add the chocolate chips and coconut oil. Bring over low-medium heat, stir with a rubber spatula until the chocolate is melted and shiny.
- Remove from heat, stir in peanut butter until creamy and smooth.
- Fold in soy puffs, and stir to coat evenly with the melted chocolate.
- Pour into the lined tin and press firmly into an even layer.
- Pop in the freezer for 12-15 minutes to harden.
- Remove from the freezer, set it aside for 10 minutes at room temperature to soften and make it easier to cut into bars. If you are cutting the bars when too cold, the bars are brittle break into small pieces.
- Release on a chopping board, and using a long sharp knife, cut it into 8 bars.
- Store in the fridge to firm up again.

Ingredientes y sustituciones
You only need 4 simple ingredients to make these bars.

- Chips de chocolate amargo – These provide the chocolate flavor and structure to the bars. You can use any percentage, but using 85% or sugar-free chips will reduce the added sugar.
- Aceite de Coco – This helps the chocolate melt smoothly. Any oil, like light olive oil, also works.
- Soy Protein Puffs – These are the key to the high protein content and provide a crispy texture. They are a complete protein. As a swap, you can use puffed quinoa or puffed buckwheat, which are also high in protein. Puffed rice will also work for the texture but won’t add protein.
- Mantequilla de maní – This adds flavor and helps bind the bars. You can also use other nut butters like almond or cashew butter, or sunflower seed butter for a nut-free option.
How to Make Protein Crisp Bars
This is a really easy recipe to whip up. Here’s how in pictures.

Pour the chocolate chips and coconut oil in a bowl and melt the mixture (bain-Marie or microwave).

Incorporate the peanut butter and stir in the soy crisps.

Keep mixing the batter until the crisps are well covered in chocolate.

Spread the mixture into an 8-inch square pan lined with parchment paper.

Spread some melted chocolate on top of the bars and freeze them for 12 minutes.

Let them warm up before slicing them with a knife warmed up under hot water.
Consejos de Carine
Let me share a few more tips to help you make really delicious bars.
- Choose Chocolate Wisely – Select chocolate based on your dietary goals. For lower sugar, opt for 85% dark chocolate or sugar-free chocolate chips. For sweeter bars, use 53% or semi-sweet chocolate chips.
- Optional Oil – You can skip the coconut oil. It mostly helps the chocolate melt smoothly.
- Añade ingredientes divertidos – Sprinkle toppings like unsweetened shredded coconut, sprinkles, sliced almonds, or sesame seeds on top of the bars before they set.
- Incorpora grasas saludables – Swap some of the soy puffs for seeds or finely chopped nuts to add healthy fats to the bars.
- Opción sin frutos secos – While peanut butter tastes great, feel free to use sunflower seed butter for a nut-free alternative, or almond butter for even more protein.
- Soy Puff Alternatives – If you can’t find soy puffs, puffed quinoa or puffed buckwheat are good high-protein substitutes. Puffed rice will also work for texture, but it does not contain much protein.

I didn’t weight the bars sorry, but I cut 8 bars from a 8 inch pan. Nutrition panel is for one bar.
Excellent bars! I added chia seeds, ground flax seeds, and protein powder. I didn’t have the soy protein cereal so I substituted rice crispies. I used olive oil in place of coconut oil. I will definitely make them again. Thank you for sharing your recipe .
That sounds delicious !
