An easy and healthy Protein Chocolate Lava Cake for One made with protein powder and cocoa powder. This protein lava cake is sugar free and has the molten chocolate center with no butter needed - a perfect indulgent dessert!
Preheat oven to 350°F, and lightly grease a 1 cup (8 oz) ramekin or mug.
In a bowl, mix flour, cocoa, chocolate protein powder and baking powder.
In an a bigger bowl whisk egg, milk, yogurt and vanilla extract.
Add in dry mix and stir to form a smooth batter. Do not over-mix, or the cake will be too dense.
Taste the batter for sweetness; Add a pinch of stevia or a bit of sugar or honey/maple syrup if you'd like!
Transfer ⅔ of the batter into the mug/ramekin.
Sprinkle on chocolate chips.
Pour remaining batter on top.
Bake for 20 minutes; Top should be mostly set, but still soft and wobbly. It will harden when cool.
Let cool a few minutes, invert onto a plate and dig in!
