Preheat oven to 350°F, line 8 cups of a muffin pan with cupcake lines, and lightly spray insides with cooking spray (or use non-stick pan).
In a large bowl, whisk flour, chocolate protein powder, unflavored protein powder, coconut flour, unsweetened cocoa powder and baking soda.
In another bowl, whisk together hot water, applesauce, melted butter, lemon juice and vanilla extract.
Pour wet mix into dry and whisk until just combined.
DO NOT OVER-MIX or protein powder will make the cupcakes dense.
Pour batter into cupcake cavities, dividing equally.
Batter should be ¾ way to the top (it will overflow if too much).
Bake for 15-16 minutes; Don’t let the batter sit out.
Toothpick inserted into the center should come out dry.
Cool for 10 minutes, then remove from pan.
Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely, about 15 minutes.
Filling:
Let cupcakes cool completely.
Use a tsp measure to make a hollow cavity at the top of the cupcakes (go about half way deep).
Fill few chopped almonds and 2 mini marshmallows into cupcake hollows, then cover with small piece of cupcake top (which was removed).
Chocolate Protein Frosting:
In a bowl, combine Greek Yogurt, protein powder and cocoa powder and mix until smooth.
Continue to mix; Frosting will come together. Add milk if needed to thin.
Scoop out and spread frosting on top of cupcakes. Sprinkle on more chopped almonds and mini marshmallow.
