Strawberry shortcake is good. But, it is even better when it has protein in it. And, even better than that when it has protein and can be made in about 5 minutes in the microwave. So, I pretty much made you guys the best strawberry shortcake ever in the form of this strawberry shortcake protein mug cake.
Mug cakes are definitely one of my favorite things to make. They are so quick, easy, and delicious. And, you can pretty much customize them any way you like. I’ve got all sorts of different mug cake variations. If you want one with some chocolate and peanut butter, click here. Or, you want one with blueberries? We’ve got that!
Anyway, back to the star of this show, the Strawberry Shortcake Protein Mug Cake. I used my BSN Syntha-6 Strawberry Milkshake protein powder. It seriously tastes like a strawberry milkshake. I don’t know how they did it, but it’s awesome.
I used to love strawberry milk when I was younger. Seriously, I wouldn’t be able to go to bed without some strawberry milk. This recipe took me back to that. It’s no artificial strawberry flavor here, just pure juicy, strawberry flavor to make the most delicious strawberry shortcake protein mug cake.
If you like strawberry shortcake normally, then you will absolutely love this one. I would argue it’s the tastiest I’ve ever had, but also packed with protein and way lower calories than your typical strawberry shortcake. There is no reason not to enjoy this one!
