To a medium mixing bowl, add the peanut butter, protein powder, maple syrup, and salt. Mix well until a thick dough forms.
Scoop a heaping tablespoon of dough and roll it into a ball, then place it on a parchment-lined tray. Flatten it with your palm into a thick disc, then use your fingers to shape it into a rounded oval. Gently press inward along one of the longer sides to create an indented curve, giving it a pumpkin shape. Pinch a small piece of additional dough into a short, stubby stem and gently press it onto the top of the pumpkin. Repeat with the remaining dough. Freeze for about 20 minutes, or until firm.
Add the chocolate chips and coconut oil to a separate bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until melted and smooth.
Dip each pumpkin into the melted chocolate, turning to coat completely. Lift it out with a fork and let any excess chocolate drip off before placing it back on the parchment-lined tray. Freeze for about 20 minutes, or until the chocolate has hardened. Enjoy!
