Macro Mike built these around Australian-grown faba bean protein, which mixes smooth rather than chalky and holds a soft, cake-like crumb once it hits the heat. There's no whey and no dairy, so there's none of the lactose that leaves a lot of people uncomfortable after something rich.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFaba bean also means no nuts in the formula – worth knowing if you've had to skip most of the plant protein category because it's built on almonds or peanuts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSweetness comes from coconut nectar with a natural blend of monk fruit and stevia rather than refined sugar, and cocoa and raw cacao carry the chocolate base. The dairy-free choc chips are folded through whole, so they melt into pockets rather than disappearing into the batter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pre-portioned sachets are the practical part. Each one is a complete serve, so there's no weighing, no half-used bag going stale in the pantry, and nothing stopping you throwing a couple in a bag for work or travel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDouble Choc Fudge\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRich and fudgy, heavy on the cocoa, with dairy-free choc chips melting through it. 187 calories and 13 g of protein per serve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCaramelised Choc Honeycomb\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe same chocolate base with caramelised honeycomb flavour layered over it, for something closer to a caramel slice than a brownie. 186 calories and 13.1 g of protein per serve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNutritional values are based on the dry mix and will vary with your choice of plant milk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow To Use\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePour one sachet into your favourite mug. Add 50–60 ml of plant-based milk and mix until fully dissolved. Microwave on high for 45–60 seconds, then allow it to cool for a few minutes – it comes out hot. Eat straight from the mug.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlmond, oat, soy and coconut milk all work. Almond or coconut give the richest result.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStir through extra choc chips or nuts before microwaving, or top with dairy-free ice cream, yoghurt, fresh fruit or nut butter. If you'd rather not microwave it, bake in a preheated oven at 180 °C for 8–10 minutes, or use an air fryer for a crisper top and a soft centre.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eStacks Well With\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHalf a scoop of \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/asnonline.co.nz\/products\/macro-mike-peanut-plant-protein\"\u003eMacro Mike Peanut Plant Protein\u003c\/a\u003e stirred in before microwaving turns either flavour into a peanut butter cup version and pushes the serve past 25 g of protein.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eServings:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6 sachets per bag (50 g each)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eProduced in a facility that also handles peanuts, almonds, cashews, hazelnuts and soy.
