Peanut Butter Chocolate Mug Cake. A 3 minute dessert to add to your Rolodex of dessert recipes
Having a quick recipe like this one can always help save you in a pinch. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been craving a treat and had nothing available so I reached for something more indulgent then I had originally planned. This mug cake only takes a couple of minutes to make. It’s certainly no regular cake and honestly it’s a 5/10 but it solves a problem and cures my sweet tooth so I consider that to be a win. Sometimes I don’t want to wait 25 minutes for something to bake and this fills that gap wonderfully.
INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup (113g) unsweetened applesauce
1 scoop (30g) whey protein
2 tbsp (10g) cocoa powder
2 tbsp (10g) powdered peanut butter
1/4 tsp (1mL) vanilla
1 egg
1/2 tsp (2g) stevia
1 tsp (5g) rainbow sprinkles
PREPARATION
1. Mix everything in a mug and stir until incorporated
2. Microwave 2-2.5 minutes.
❓I don’t have applesauce, what can I swap it for?
❗️Butter, a banana, maybe yogurt. The point of these recipes is to make them as macro friendly as possible. Enter: the applesauce. If you’re going to use butter or change up the recipe you’re probably better off just making the real thing. If you don’t have applesauce where you live, make it. It’s not hard. Or get it online.
❓Can I use vegan protein powder?
❗️I don’t know. Probably. I have never used vegan protein one time in my life and I hope I never have to. This would probably be a better cake if it was made with casein but every time I make something with casein someone whines about how I “only use casein in my recipes and I don’t have any.” and “You should really consider using more available ingredients”. Well that’s because it works better, Kristen. Buy some. Do you want a dog shit recipe or something that’s actually good?
❓Do I have do use the sprinkles?
❗️It’s so obvious that you can leave them out.
❓Can I use regular peanut butter?
❗️yes. Only use 1 tbsp and it will be more calories though.
