Let them eat cake! well.... kind of...and Protein.
Okay. I have a problem with peanut butter. I decided to give it up, and that makes me pretty sad. I made something tonight to try to help with my PB craving.
Did it push away that PB craving?
Yes.
Was it the best thing I have ever eaten?
Probably not.
Would I make it again?
Most likely, but I would change a few things.
I think it sat too long while I took pictures so it seems to dry out a bit. Though I still totally ate the whole thing.
But you should share. Because A: Sharing is caring B: It is a lot of protein.
Ingredients (For Cake):
1 Scoop of protein powder. I used vanilla because it was what I had.
1 tbsp Cocoa Powder: I used this because I dislike Vanilla Protein powder.

1 Egg
1/4 tsp Vanilla Extract
