Protein Costco Chocolate Cake

Deliciously moist chocolate cake packed with protein for a guilt-free indulgence.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1 cup protein powder
  • 1 cup light flour alternative
  • ½ cup reduced-fat milk
  • ½ cup cocoa powder
  • ¾ cup sweetener of choice
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • A pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Prepare a 9-inch round cake pan by lightly greasing it or lining it with parchment paper.
  3. Combine the Greek yogurt, reduced-fat milk, eggs, and vanilla extract in a large mixing bowl and whisk until smooth.
  4. Mix the protein powder, light flour alternative, cocoa powder, baking soda, sweetener, and salt in a separate bowl.
  5. Combine the dry mixture with the wet ingredients and mix gently until just combined.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and gently tap it on the counter to release air bubbles.
  7. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  8. Cool the cake in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack.
  9. Slice and enjoy your cake, optionally topped with Greek yogurt.

Notes

For a vegan option, use flax eggs instead of regular eggs and dairy-free yogurt.
