3 Ingredient Not Healthy Mug Cake

Super late last night I threw together a healthy cookie recipe with protein powder, oats and almond butter. Then, I woke up this morning and saw it was National Chocolate Cake Day. Of course I had to celebrate with a chocolate mug cake.

So today I have two recipes for you – a  healthy choc-oat cookie recipe AND a not so healthy, but easy and delicious 3 ingredient mug cake.

Let’s go with the super easy one first…

3 ingredient CHOCOLATE Mug Cake

Ingredients:

• 1/4 cup powdered sugar
• 1.5 Tb. cocoa powder
• 1 egg
• dash salt (you can skip this if, but it helps bring out the sweetness)

Directions: Spray microwaveable mug with non-stick spray.

Mix egg in a bowl. Add sugar, cocoa powder and dash of salt. Combine. Pour into sprayed mug.

Microwave for 45-60 seconds. It will puff out of the mug, but collapse back down when it turns off. (Micro less time if you want it gooey.)

Top with powdered sugar or frosting of your choice.

And if you’re on the 24 day challenge or some other clean eating effort you can try this protein packed recipe…

 

Choc-Oat Protein Cookies Recipe

Ingredients:

• 1/3 cup almond butter
• 1/3 cup oats
• 1 package chocolate protein powder
• 1/3 cup egg whites
• 1/2 tsp. each: baking powder, salt, vanilla extract
• optional: packet of stevia or other sugar sub

Directions: Heat oven to 350 degrees. Combine oats, protein powder, baking soda and salt. Add almond butter, egg whites and vanilla extract. Mix well.

Drop by the spoonful onto greased cookie sheet. Bake 7-9 minutes or until done.
