NEW RECIPE - High Protein Strawberry Fudge Bars...

Well the first lot were a disaster, just a goooey mess, that wouldn't set,.......but not to be beaten, I tried orange and the consistency was much better, actually like a dough.
I measured the same amount of ingredients in both attempts..............the only difference being........the first lot used cheap H&B whey and the second lot used pro peptide???. The pro peptide have turned out excellent. The H&B is a whey concentrate, wheras the pro peptide contains whey protein isolate and hydrolyzed, whether this makes any difference, I havn't got a clue???.............but the second batch is much better.

I would post some pics, but don't think I can cos I ain't got 50 posts yet :( .............but I'm working on it

Here you go mate here are your pics.

thanks Gaz, Gordon Ramsey...I'm not !!!!

No probs mate.

Last lot look good.

Taste lovely but have a few questions.

There isn't enough protein and cals in one serving so do I a: Use double of the ingredients and make 8 bars at around 40g protein each.
B: Make two batches up and eat two at one sitting?

I found it difficult getting all the mixture into a container before putting in the frisge and a lot of the mixture was left still in the mixing bowl!

You could double the amounts mate.

What i normally do is say i want 48 grams of protein in one meal, i actually work out how much protein is in the whole of the contents, then from that, work out how many grams of protein is in 1 gram of the mixture.

Then it is simply a matter of divinding that number by '48' and then weighing that portion.

Let us know what you think.

So how many grams of bar do you need to get 48 g of protein?

By the way, the come out very sticky and difficult to move from tray, to scales, to tub! Any suggestions?

Just made up a few trays, really good, nice one mate

Well it depends on exact weights of ingredients, but 44 grams is normally around 90-100 grams of the actual fudge bar.

Cool, glad you like them.

If i double the amount in the ingredients on page 1 that would give me 8 bars at near 40g protein per bar right?

Can i use ground almonds instead of normal?

Yes, i believe it would.

Yes ground almonds would be fine.

Haven't had a chance to read all the comments yet but looks good! Just wondering if you can taste the PB? I really can't stomach it and the smell alone makes me wretch but all the recipies for stuff like this seems to include it!

Made my second batch tonight. Taste amazing, they really are addictive.

I used the same quantities as on the front page but cut into 4 instead of 8 for adequate protein. Thanks for the wonderful recipe Gaz, huge convenience for work too!

How do i post a photo of mine in here?
