Chocolate Protein Mug Cake

A single serving guilt-free snack that'll cure your sweet tooth.

Finding recipes for healthy snacks filled with protein that actually taste great are hard to come by. I remember when I first made a mug cake - it was absolutely awful! But I've tweaked recipes over the years and this version is THE BEST. Plus, I never feel guilty for eating it! It has over 30 grams of protein and doesn't contain a ton of preservatives.
