Microwave Protein Mug Cake Recipes: Black Forest and More

This is one forest I don't mind getting lost in. In college I used to hang out errr study at a coffee shop near my campus where they served the most unbelievable Black Forest Cake I indulged in much too much. Waxing nostalgic for the cherry chocolate yumminess I created this much healthier version...

Shelly's Black Forest Protein Ice Cream

1 cup Vanilla Soy Milk (or Regular Milk)
2 scoops of Chocolate Protein Powder
1 Tablespoon Sugar Free Black Cherry Torani Syrup
1/4 cup Cherries (fresh or frozen), chopped
1/2 a slice of Shelly's 5 Minute Sugar Free Black Forest Cake, chopped (recipe below)

Mix together milk, protein, and syrup. I used this gadget to mix it up. It makes it airy and lump free. If you don't have one just toss it in a blender on super high. You want it fluffy almost double in size. Pour into ice cream maker. Follow your machine's instructions for freezing. 5 minutes before done add cherries and cake chunks.

You can eat it right away it is soft serve-ish but I like to put it in the freezer to set for an hour.


Shelly's 5 Minute Sugar Free Black Forest Cake

1 Egg, beaten
3 Tablespoons Milk
2 Tablespoons Sugar Free Black Cherry Torani Syrup
1 Tablespoon Canola Oil
3 Tablespoons Multigrain Pancake Mix
2 Tablespoons Cocoa
1 scoop Chocolate Protein Powder
Pinch salt
1 - 2 cup Measuring Cup or Microwave Safe Mug

In a measuring cup or microwave safe mug, Mix egg, milk, syrup and oil and combine thoroughly. In a separate bowl, mix pancake mix, cocoa, protein powder and salt. Tip dry into wet and stir till combined. Nuke in microwave for 2 minutes (my microwave is getting old and needs 20 seconds added now.)

Let it sit for three or so minutes (it pulls away from the sides) before tipping the cake onto a plate. Yields 4-5 slices.

I know. 2 Ice Cream post in a row. I'm on an Ice Cream kick. I'm sitting here eating it for breakfast. OMG! soooo good. It's supposed to be 90 degrees this weekend so my machine will be in overdrive. For those of you not on the Protein Ice Cream bandwagon yet (or still digging out from the deep freeze) I promise I'll post a non ice cream post manana.
