Here are a couple recipes that can be used in P3. One is a Chocolate Microwave Cake and the other is a Zucchini Carrot Cake.

Chocolate Microwave Cake:

Mix all dry ingredients in mug, add egg and blend thoroughly. Add milk, oil and vanilla and mix. Place in 1000 watt microwave for three (3) minutes. Do not cover mug. Cake will rise over top - do not be alarmed. Let cool and place on plate. Add a little whipped cream to top or carb wise ice cream.

Zucchini Carrot Cake:

2 eggs
1/2 C Oil
2/3 C Spenda
1/2 C plain yougart
1/2 C Vanilla flavored whey protein powder

Preheat over to 350.

Whisk eggs until well blended, all all ingredients and mix well. Add zucchini and carrots last.

Coat ring mold or bundt pan with nonstick cooking spray and add batter.

Bake for 45 minutes. Turn out onto wire rack to cool.

Cream Cheese Frosting:

3/4 C Heavy Whipping Cream
1 pkg Cream Cheese (softened)
1/2 C Splenda

Whip heavy cream until stiff. In separate bowl beat cream cheese until very smooth, then beat in splenda and vanilla. Mix in heavy cream at lowest speed until smooth. Frost cake.


Hope everyone enjoys the recipes. They are both very good.
