Line an 8 x 8 baking dish or loaf pan with baking paper and set aside. (Loaf pan will yield thicker bars).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flours, protein powder, granulated sweetener and mix well.
In a microwave safe bowl or stovetop, combine the nut butter and liquid sweetener and heat until melted.
Pour the wet mixture into the dry and mix well- Mixture should be crumbly. Add the chopped macadamia nuts and mix until fully incorporated. Using a tablespoon, add the milk of choice, until a thick firm batter is formed.
Transfer to lined baking dish and press firmly. In a small bowl, mix your 'white chocolate' ingredients and drizzle lightly over the bars and refrigerate. Once firm, cut into bars and enjoy!
Notes
* Adjust accordingly- If your protein powder is sweetened, you may need to reduce. ** Depending on the brand of protein powder and coconut flour you use, you'll most likely need more- adjust accordingly. *** If you don't want to follow this step and don't have dietary restrictions, you can sub your favorite white chocolate chunks on top. These bars are best kept refrigerated for the best texture, but can be enjoyed at room temperature or thawed from the freezer.
