0.25 cup unsweetened almond milk

1 tbsp creamy almond butter

1 tsp pure maple syrup

0.25 tsp baking powder

PREPARATION

• 1

  In a large microwave-safe mug, whisk together the chocolate protein powder, cocoa powder, baking powder, and sea salt until no lumps remain.

  Add the egg, almond milk, and maple syrup to the mug and stir vigorously until the batter is smooth and well combined.

• 3

  Fold in half of the dark chocolate chips into the batter.

• 4

  Spoon the creamy almond butter directly into the center of the batter, pressing it down slightly so it is covered.

• 5

  Sprinkle the remaining dark chocolate chips over the top of the batter.

• 6

  Microwave on high for 60 to 90 seconds, checking at the one-minute mark to ensure the edges are set while the center remains slightly soft.
