So the cupcakes pictured below aren’t the prettiest on the planet … in my defense, they were my first try. They were pretty darn tasty though! At 190 calories for both of them and with 26 grams of protein, who can resist?

Chocolate and PB-frosted cupcakes

Ingredients

Cupcakes
3/8 cup (1/2 packet) IsaLean Pro vanilla shake
1 egg white

Frosting
1 tbsp. cocoa powder
1-2 tbsp. PB 2 (or to taste)
1/2 packet of stevia (or to taste)
1 tbsp (or so) of water

How to:

Stir the shake powder and egg white together in a small bowl. It will be thick. In each of two small bowls (I used Pyrex custard dishes), spoon in half of the mixture. Microwave for 50 seconds to 1 minute. Mixture will rise. Remove from microwave. Cakes should come out of the bowls pretty easily.

In another small dish, mix cocoa, PB2 and stevia with a small amount of water. Mix together, and spread on top of the cupcakes. Eat.
