Ingredients

Protein Angel Food Cake:
  • 7 egg whites from the egg not carton
  • 1 tsp cream of tartar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 to 3 tsp stevia or other sweetener of choice
  • 2 Tbsp vanilla protein powder (15g)
Cream Cheese Frosting:
  • 8 oz. Greek cream cheese
  • 1/2 cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt (112g)
  • 1/2 package sugar free cheesecake Jello pudding mix (14g)
  • 1 tbsp zero-calorie sweetener
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk (60g)
Topping:
  • 180 g strawberries sliced
  • 1 tbsp confectioner’s sugar optional

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 315 °F. Spray any cake pan with cooking spray. I usually use a springform pan or a bundt cake pan.
  2. Crack eggs and discard or save egg yolks for later use. Place the egg whites in a medium sized mixing bowl.
  3. Add vanilla, stevia, and cream of tartar to egg whites and beat with a hand mixer until firm peak forms (I did about 5 minutes on high speed).
  4. Using a spatula, fold in a protein powder carefully as to not deflate the egg white mixture.
  5. Place batter in cake pan and cook for 15-20 minutes or until top of the cake starts to become golden brown. When done, let cool. Then place in fridge.
To Make Cream Cheese Frosting:
  1. In a medium sized mixing bowl, add cream cheese, sweetener, jello pudding mix, yogurt, and almond milk. Mix with a hand mixture until all is combined. Keep stored in fridge until cake is chilled and is ready to frost.
To Assemble:
  1. Place cake carefully on the surface you plan to serve it. It has the potential to stick to the pan so it is easier to go ahead and a set it up this way!
  2. Using a spatula, carefully frost cake. Cake is fragile so do so gently.
  3. Top with fresh strawberries and confectioner’s sugar if desired. Slice, and enjoy!
