Notes

  • The chocolate protein mug cake recipe makes one small serving. It does deflate ever so slightly but not much.
  • Some of the texture depends on how large your mug is and how dispersed the ingredients are. Use a regular-size coffee mug for best results.
  • You can add chocolate chips or sprinkles to the mug cake however it’s actually better to add them on top after.
  • Definitely let the protein powder mug cake cool for thirty seconds as it is HOT.
  • If using a vanilla protein powder, add in 1 teaspoon cacao powder to the mixture.
  • Don't skip the baking powder and soda even though they're small amounts. It really helps the mug cake from deflating!
