Chocolate Protein Cake

Chocolate Protein Cake

I have 2 words for you.

Eat. Cake.

This recipe was done in collaboration with FitFluential and Designer Whey. Two of my favorite brands  I love doing recipes for Designer Whey because I get to be really creative. I get to take a non-typical baking product, and bake with it!

I’m pretty much eating my screen as I type this…

The way I made this cake is gluten free, but you can sub the gf flour for normal flour or even whole wheat flour. I topped my chocolate protein cake with a blob of drippy almond butter and some unsweetened shredded coconut.

I just at the screen again.

So instead of eating your screen…here is the recipe

Yay for the weekend.
