So, without further ado, here are the four protein-packed, chocolate cake recipes you need to get baking today…
Individual Chocolate Cakes
These mini chocolate sandwich cakes are made with a certain hidden vegetable (we promise you won’t notice), whey protein and a tasty Greek yogurt icing, meaning they’re packed full of protein and micronutrients. That’s what we call a dessert with benefits! Find the recipe, here.

Molten Chocolate Mugcake
It’s the ultimate dilemma; you’ve really been craving a slice of gooey chocolate cake but you want neither to spend 2 hours baking one nor stray too far from your nutritional goals. Never fear, this chocolatey dessert is the perfect solution. Made in a mug in the microwave, this high protein cake with a melting chocolate centre will help you hit your protein goals and save you from slaving away in the kitchen – it’s a win win situation!

Sweet Potato Brownies
Making brownies with sweet potato might sounds weird, but just stick with us. Sweet potatoes are chocked full of vitamin A which is key to a healthy immune system and also good vision. They have the potential to help regulate our blood sugar levels too. What a humble hero!
