Most of us love cake. I know I definitely do! What I don't love is all the sugar, fat, and calories that come in cake.
That's why I'm a huge fan of protein powder mug cakes! You can take your favorite flavor of protein, a few other ingredients, and have your own high-protein cake in minutes.
One of my absolute favorite mug cake recipes right now is cookies and cream. It really hits the spot when you are in need of something sweet!
Also, you can experiment with slight variations of this recipe to find your favorite formula.
