Looking for KaylaB's Cake Shake recipe
Ha, I don't really remember it either. It's more of a consistency thing.
Scoop of protein powder
1 tbsp? cocoa powder
sweetener of choice, to taste (start at 1-2 packets, or try davinci syrups)
1-3 Tbsp oil (depends on fat needs)
and then I think 1/8-1/4 tsp baking soda
Enough water to make brownie consistency
I know the microwave time was like 30-40 seconds only.
This was from one of your earlier posts from 2011 - I've gleaned a lot of DS info by using the search function above:
Several folks from this forum have asked for the recipe. This is KaylaB's discovery on the DS forum but I make it about 4 times a day so I share it a lot.
How I make it:
3-4 T splenda
1 T packed dark cocoa
1 scoop chocolate protein powder
1/4 tsp baking powder
1 tsp vanilla extract
3 T oil
water to make a thin non grainy batter
Mix WELL.
I use a 20 oz heavy Corningware mug that I found at Walmart. What you cook this IN varies the cook time.
Taste the batter. If it tastes good the cake will too. Nuke for 35-45 seconds. If the result moves when you tip the mug it is liquid at the bottom (like a molten cake). Do NOT over cook.
Top with something low carb and yummy. I use Land O Lakes Sugar Free whipped cream. Even cooked perfectly it is a little dry.
You MUST experiement with the amount of oil and water and the cook time. But finding the right ratio for you will be well worth the effort.
The way I make it it has 26 protein and about 6 carbs.

Thanks Corbin. I am trying to remember how I ate when I was losing weight and maintaining. I keep losing the same 10 over and over (and I'm not complaining...it used to be 100 not 10) and this is something that I know helped me tremendously. I have a terrible sweet tooth and when left to my own devices I eat sugar and gain weight... go figure, right?
This is really a life saver.

Eggface has a bunch of mug cakes on her site. I've always had good luck with her recipes. :)
