Get 2 desserts in 1 and for one with this Chocolate Cheesecake Protein Mug Cake, but still keep it sugar free and healthy. A high protein chocolate cream cheese mug cake made with whole wheat pastry flour and protein powder, and filled with a low fat Greek yogurt-cream cheese mixture.
Protein Cheesecake Filling:
Lightly grease a large 1-1½ cup (8-12 oz) ramekin or mug.
In a bowl, mix whole wheat pastry flour, cocoa powder, protein powder and baking powder.
In another bowl whisk almond milk, egg white, coconut oil and vanilla.
Add dry mix to wet and stir lightly to form batter.
Do not over-mix, or the cake will be too dense from wheat flour and protein powder; Small lumps are okay.
In a small bowl, stir together cream cheese, yogurt, almond milk and protein powder.
Transfer ¾ of the batter into the mug/ramekin.
Add cream cheese mixture.
Pour remaining batter on top and spread.
Microwave on high for 55-60 seconds or until the top is just set and mostly dry to touch. Microwave additional time at 5 second intervals if needed.
Let cool a few minutes, invert onto a plate and dig in!
