Questions People Ask

Can I use another protein powder?
Yes. Protein powders absorb liquid differently. Add milk one teaspoon at a time if the batter is stiff and stop cooking as soon as no liquid batter remains.
How do I know when it is done?
Use the visual cue in the directions. Mug width and microwave power change the time, so cook in short bursts after the first check.

Storage

Best eaten fresh. If needed, cover and refrigerate the cake for up to 1 day. Warm briefly and add the icing after reheating.
