 Kevin and I were debating this, but neither of us know the answer. I love the low sugar hot cocoa mix you just add water to I find it to be a satisfying treat with fluids. I thinking of making some from scratch at home (nonfat powdered milk, splenda, cocoa powder and SF pudding mix) Now for the question. Could I also add some Choc Protein powder to this? We were thinking that heat compromises the protein powder, but I know Kelly D bakes protein bars, so it must be ok? You know me, I love to get the most protein bang for my buck! Any thoughts or insight....... or better yet a recipe???? I'd appreciate it mucho much!

 According to the panel on my Champion Chocolate protein powder, it can be added to hot or cold cereal, and baked goods. pancakes mixes and yogurt.

Are you satisfied with the Champion protein powder? I've been using Vitamin World's and while the taste is ok [the vanilla is way too sweet for me], no matter how I mix it, it clumps to the top which i hate!

 I am happy with Chamion, Dymatize and American Sports Nutrition products. I probably like them because I ordered them "flavored." I have peach cobbler, banana scream, orange dreamsicle, chocolate peanut butter and more flavors like that. I purchased them from supplimentwarehouse.com. Prices good bu****ch the shipping, especially on free or closeout items.

I have done a little bit of baking with it, with no problems.

I have also over-heated one with SCARY results.  The Unjury Chicken Broth turned into a Jr. High science experiment when I failed to monitor the recommended  temperature limit of the water I mixed it with.

So MY suggestion would be to heed the label.  If it gives you a temperature limit, observe it.  If not, ENJOY!
