To my everlasting joy the answer is YES! These chocolate peanut butter cupcakes are delicious, packed with protein and veggies, are easy to make, and they are actually healthy!

So if you find yourself craving sweets after a workout you can choose this healthier option and feed your muscles the protein they need to heal!

I first stumbled across this recipe through Shape Magazine. I noticed that they took the recipe from: http://youngmarriedchic.com/ which is a very cool blog.

If you’re ready to try it I posted the recipe below:

For the frosting:
1/2 c. natural peanut butter
1/4 c. Greek yogurt
1 tsp. vanilla
1/2 tsp. stevia or other sweetener
Honey for drizzling

Stir together the peanut butter, Greek yogurt, vanilla and Stevia. If you prefer a sweeter icing, add more sweetener to taste. (1 packet was enough for me). Ice the cupcakes right before serving. Drizzle honey over top. Due to the lack of fat in the recipe and the Greek yogurt in the icing, if not eaten immediately, the cupcakes should be kept in the refrigerator.
