Step 1
Start by putting the peanut butter, protein powder, black garlic, and Neufchatel cheese into a mini food processor. Give everything a few quick pulses until it’s all mixed together smoothly. Then, scoop out the mixture and roll it into about sixteen small balls, roughly an inch each. Once your balls are shaped, gently roll them in sanding sugar so they get a nice little coating. You can enjoy them right away or pop them in an airtight container and keep them in the fridge for later. They make a great little snack whenever you need a quick bite!
