These chocolate squares are one of my favorites. With a bit more protein than your typical chocolate bars, they are great for long runs, where it can be tricky to consume adequate protein.
I found they taste better a day or two after making. Just after hardening, they might be a bit gooey – like caramel bonbons. But after a few days, their texture becomes much smoother.
