Does anyone have a recipe for a cake, cookies, or brownies that is ideal protein friendly? I am going crazy here!

IP has a chocolate crepe...also they have the chocolate shake... I hope your craving goes away, I crave peanut butter!!! PS I know they must have a bar with chocolate in it... I don't eat them so I don't know! The chocolate puffs are excellent!!

If I have a choc craving my fav is the ip choc drink omg its so good heated up and sometimes I add some peppermint extract or I'll have a bar they are really good too

I lived on IP Double Chocolate Bars and IP Chocolate Drinks. I also bought WFs Chocolate Syrup. Be sure to get some of these items in your home. I'm now in maintenance and don't have the luxury of having chocolate every day and it's a real struggle!!!

Can't you still have chocolate protein bars in maintenance?

Here's a collection of chocolate recipes I have.

Cupcakes
To make the cupcakes I beat 2 egg whites and 2oz of water until it is all foamy and then SLOWLY fold in the pudding packet of choice -- lemon (my personal fav), butterscotch, chocolate, vanilla, they all taste great especially dipped in the WF. I add whichever spices and extracts I feel like being creative with, along with 2 tablespoons of granulated splenda (probably about 1 individual splenda packet if you are using the yellow packages). Spray a muffin tray with olive oil cooking spray (a good way to get in some of that oil), and fill them up half way ( I usually get about 5-6 ) fill the empty ones with water so they cook evenly and bake for 20 minutes at 350F.

Jennydoodle pudding cake
Preheat oven to 350 degrees
In a blender, combine (2) egg whites, (1) t. vanilla and 2 oz. of water. Blend well
Pour liquid contents into a bowl, and gently fold in pudding packet. I usually add a little powder, mix it up, add a little more, etc... The final result is a "batter" similar to brownies. And yes, I lick the bowl and spoon
To bake, I use (2) small corning ware dishes, you could also make them in a muffin tin, and divide them into (3) equal muffins. I spray the bottom of the dish with Pam so the cakes won't stick.

The cakes will get VERY large while baking, and will deflate when cooling. If you put too much batter into a small baking dish, your cakes will literally explode in the oven. It is VERY important to only fill the baking dish or muffin tin 1/2 way. Which is why you will get 2 small cakes or 3 muffins.

-Bake at 350 for 15-16 minutes. Let cool and enjoy a mini cake.

(2) notes:
1). I have only tried this with Lemon, Butterscotch and Vanilla puddings. They have all turned out excellent! I haven't tried with Chocolate because I don't really care for the chocolate pudding, it is very chalky to me.
2). If you are making the cakes in a muffin tin, fill the empty muffin "holes" with water so that the cakes bake evenly.

Today I made chocolate pudding cakes with a little cinnamon and coconut extract with one splenda. I only used one egg white.

BASIC MOUSSE
1. Beat 2 egg whites with a pinch of sea salt, two pinches of cream of tartar, and 1-3 teaspoons sugar substitute like Splenda. Beat until peaks form and the whites are solid. Set aside in refrigerator.
2. Make any flavor Ideal Protein pudding according to directions.
3. Because the egg whites are not sweet, for some flavors of puddings, you may want to add additional spice to either the pudding or egg whites. (Stevia flavors to egg whites are excellent (like vanilla creme). Cinnamon goes well with many of the puddings as well)
3. Fold in egg whites (do not beat) until blended.

Makes two generous portions... which still only count as 1 non-restrictive!

TOPPERS
When ready to serve your Mousse, try crumbling 3-4 Ideal Protein soy balls on top. (i.e., Chocolate, Peanut, Apple Cinnamon). The crunch and sweetness really makes it special.

A sprinkle of cinnamon is good on many flavors.

Fresh basil or rosemary on strawberry is refreshing.

Yeah, but not IP bars. I stopped IP when I began P2 because of cost. I have found some super great chocolate and mocha wafers (die for). But I just found them a week ago, so I was really struggling for a few months (i.e. eating chocolate on nonfun days). But still I try not to have them until my P1 day. But you're right I can have them as a snack. it's just going back to a regular diet gives you many other options...

Due to this post I have lemon pudding cakes cooling (a bit late but I need to have my snack so 9pm it will be!) they looked like soufles! Fell like them too lol

They sound yummy! Enjoy!

Yeah....not so yummy! Don't like that lemOn pudding blech!

THANK YOU FOR POSTING THESE HERE!!!

Not a lemon pudding fan either, could enjoy them as waffles w/some WF Syrup though, they tasted like medicine to me otherwise!

yum!

I love the HealthSmart (NashuaNutrition.com)15 g protein Peanut Butter bars. They have a thick rich chocolate coating over smooth peanut butter. It's a challenge for me to have just 1, so when I'm in a rush and am on the go, I'll use one of them. I thoroughly enjoy it and this way there's no danger of having a second. I have them with 12-16 ounces of water/coffee/tea and in 15 minutes, am completely full and satisfied. By the way, same brand has a phenomenal 15 g protein variety package of bars, most of them chocolate, and I really liked each of them. Pretty unusual for me, I usually find a few of them tasting "off". Not so with Healthsmart chocolate bars.

Also, as I look for more and more alternatives - for the sake of variety and general interest, have found a number of the bariatric food products suitable.

What about the 25 calorie hot chocolate mix - since not in ketosis - these would work, yes?

Seen Chocolate, had to take a look. Great recipes, just got through copying them, thanks!
