I really love cake. It is pretty hard for me to control myself when I’m around a good piece of cake. A few friends and I smashed 4 pieces of cake this weekend, after eating a huge meal of Mexican food! So, I decided to make this Microwave Pumpkin Protein Cake that you can indulge on without any guilt!

So, in my opinion, all cake is good. But, cake that you can make in a microwave in a couple minutes is even better. That is where my friends at Lil Buff come in. They make delicious, high protein, healthy microwave protein cake mixes. In this particular one, I used their Pump-it-Up pumpkin spice mix. Check out their site, and use my code “CAKE-MACROCHEF” for $3 off your order, or click the links above.


After I made the cake, I topped it with a protein pumpkin peanut butter sauce. It is basically just vanilla protein powder, pumpkin, peanut butter, and some almond milk. Lastly, I sprinkled the cake with the sprinkles that came with the Lil Buff cake mix.
