Protein Powder Mugcake

SO i found a recipe for a particular flavor of this and I tried it with my own flavor and Voila it really works, and is awesome and if you use the right stuff its fat free sugar free and loaded with Protein.

Basically it is a scoop of your favorite flavor Protein powder, I used Syntrax Matrix chocolate, but i know its made with Peanut Butter cookie flavor as well and i think it'd work with just about any flavor that you would make a cake out of.

Basically in a mug or coffee cup, microwave safe, you take 1 scoop of Protein Powder, add 1/8th teaspoon of baking powder and mix thoroughly. Then add non dairy Creamer, ( i use the coffee mate sugar free italian sweet cream) until it is cake batter consistency. stir it up and microwave for 45 to 60 seconds. then let it cool a little , (not too much though) and top with sugar free whipped topping or sugar free choclate drizzle or your favorite sugar free caramel or flavored Syrup etc, . It basically make a mugcake like a lava cake, and the way i make it it has zero fat, zero sugar and about 100 calories. So if you need that cake like fix ( please use responsibly) then this is awesome and you get ( my version) 24 grams of Protein as well.

It really is excellent!

Let me know what you think.

I'm going to try that. Pre WLS I used to make one that I adapted for my allergies. I used half the sugar and subbed the flour for a half powdered flax, half whole wheat flour or almond meal and I use coconut oil instead of butter. I already figured out making pancakes with Protein Powder. Maybe I'll play around this weekend and try a Protein powder one. I'd love a chocolate cake.

Thanks! Gonna try that. I've been doing versions of Eggface's Protein powder cakes but this seems so much simpler!
