    An irresistible Oreo Protein Cake topped with a Peanut Butter frosting for the cookies and cream flavor with a bonus. This simple protein cake uses chocolate protein powder, is sugar-free and has very little butter; Definitely better than other recipes out there!

    2 servings

    Peanut Butter Frosting:

    1. Preheat oven to 350°F and line bottom of 2 7” round cake pans with parchment paper; Spray sides with cooking spray.

    2. In a bowl, combine gluten free all purpose flour, chocolate protein powder, black cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Set aside.

    3. In a large bowl, whisk Greek yogurt, milk, melted butter, egg, egg white and vanilla.

    4. Add in dry mix in wet and fold using a large spoon or spatula.

      DO NOT OVER-MIX or the cake will be tough because of the protein powder.

    5. Divide mixture among both baking pans.

    6. Bake on center rack for 20-22 minutes.

      A tester inserted into the center will come out clean and top springy to touch.

    7. Transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely.

    Frosting:

    1. In a small bowl stir together cool whip, peanut butter powder and peanut butter.

    2. Spread half mixture on one cake layer, place second layer on top, and spread remaining frosting on top.
