1 Cup Chocolate Almond Milk

Combine all dry ingredients in large mixing bowl. Whisk all dry ingredients together.

Combine all liquid ingredients in large mixing bowl. Whisk all liquid ingredients together.

Place all the whisked together dry ingredients into the bowl with the liquid ingredients.I used a kitchen aid to mix all ingredients together. You can also you mixing beaters as well.

Once all the ingredients are perfectly blended together place the mixture into a greased 9×9 cake pan.

Smooth it all out to make sure that the mixture is even so it bakes properly.

Place in cake pan in the oven at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.

You will know the cake is done when you can place a knife into the cake and it comes out clean.

Allow cake to cool while you make the frosting.

In a large mixing bowl combine these ingredients for the frosting.

¼ Cup Ricotta Cheese

¼ Cup Plain 0% Fat Greek Yogurt

2 Teaspoons Unsweetened Coco

1 Teaspoon Truvia

1 Scoop Chocolate Whey Protein

3 TBSP Peanut Butter

Mix all ingredients together the same way you did for the cake batter.

Now back to the cake. Take a knife and cut around the edges to free the cake from the pan. Take a dinner plate and place it onto of the cake. In a quick motion flip the cake pan over so it is now upside down. You may need to hit the bottom of the cake pan to free the cake from the pan. Slowly pull the pan up allowing the cake to be freed onto the plate. Be sure to do this carefully so the cake does not come out in pieces. Keep hitting the bottom of the cake pan until it is freed.

Now you can frost the cake to your liking.

Now here comes the best part. EAT, ENJOY AND BE HAPPY. You are eating chocolate cake that won’t hang your midsection. GET EXCITED!
