Protein Cake

[aintnosunshine]

This is an awsome recipe i have discovered in a small bowl put your peanut butter 1 or 2 Tbsp.With your protein powder(sometimes it's a full scoop for me and sometimes half a scoop). Add a packet of splenda (if desired) and mix. Add a tad bit of water or Milk until it's a paste like consistency or like pudding. Microwave for 45-50 seconds or until it's a cake like consistency. Eat and you will be amazed how much it tastes like cake or a brownie.

Okay...I'm posting back because I've been making these for the past few days. For those of you who are lo carbing, dieting whatever...these are a pretty good substitute for browny cravings. Keep in mind...I'm not a candy bar, super sweet freak anyway, so this may be why I appreciate these. I just like something once in a while and these satisfy the craving!! Thanks for posting this..it's worth resurrecting.

One more thing...I added whole walnuts and they were even better!!

This didn't work well for me... I started out wrong, too much milk, then I added more protein powder to compensate.. and had to microwave for at least 2 minutes to get it to not be soupy..

If you use one scoop, about how much liquid do you use? 1 or 2 tbls? I really want this to be good! I need some sort of after dinner "treat" that isn't ice cream!x(

I'm not sure I got the consistency right, but it sure tasted good! I used a vegan chocolate/p.nut butter protein powder (1 half scoop), 2 tbsps of p.nut butter and a SMALL amount of soymilk. I stirred until it made a paste (very thick but not dry) and microwaved for 40 seconds. The microwave dried out the texture and gave it a 'cakey' type feel (although it didn't look like cake at all), and tasted great! YUM! Thanks for posting!

I tried it and it worked. Next time I'll use Chocolate protein powder instead of vanilla and add the nuts. It makes a BIG brownie. LOL!

This is really good--a GREAT way for me to get my protein in! I hate protein drinks....

So, is it cheating if you add a scoop of ice cream??? }(

Thanks for the recipe!

I'm going to try again with 1/2 scoop of powder and start with a tablespoon of milk this time.. I did add the walnuts, but because I added too much milk, it was awful!x(

Couldn't check the forum for a few days due to computer problems.

Glad some of you liked these!! Perfect substitute for a lo carber. I used vanilla protein powder and added pure cocoa powder, but I'm going to try finding chocolate protein powder in the future. I also used 1/2 scoop protein powder, 2 tbls natural peanut butter, a little rice milk (or water), and walnuts. I wave them for about 50 seconds.
