Begin by preparing a double boiler or setting a heatproof bowl over a pot of simmering water. Add the dark chocolate to the bowl and let it melt slowly, stirring occasionally.
Once the chocolate is completely melted, remove the bowl from the heat and stir in the almond milk, chocolate protein powder, peanut butter, honey, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Place the rice cakes on a lined baking sheet or tray, ensuring they are not overlapping.
Using a spoon, generously coat each rice cake with the chocolate protein mixture, using the back of the spoon to spread the mixture evenly over the surface of the rice cakes.
Place the chocolate-coated rice cakes in the refrigerator and allow them to set for at least 30 minutes, or until the chocolate has hardened.
Once the chocolate has set, remove the rice cakes from the refrigerator. They are now ready to be served or stored in an airtight container for future consumption.
Enjoy these high protein chocolate rice cakes as a satisfying post-workout snack or a nutritious energy boost throughout the day.
