    2 servings

    Frosting:

    1. Preheat oven to 350°F and line a 9x9” baking pan with parchment paper.

    2. In a bowl, whisk flour, whey and whey-casein chocolate protein powders, unsweetened cocoa powder, zero calorie sugar replacement, instant coffee and baking soda.

    3. In a large bowl, whisk together hot water, applesauce, butter and lemon juice.

    4. Add dry mix to wet, and gently fold until just combined.

      DO NOT OVER-MIX or protein powder will make the cake dense.

    5. Pour batter into pan, and bake for 25-30 minutes.

      Don’t let the batter sit out.

      A tester inserted into the center should come out clean and center of cake springy to touch.

    6. Let cool in pan for 10 minutes then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely.

    Frosting:

    1. Let cake cool completely before frosting!

    2. Spread cool whip on top of cake, slice into 12 pieces and enjoy.
