Instructions

Method by eatwithclarity.com. Cook it from their page if you can, so the people who developed and tested it get the visit.

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
2. Line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper and set aside.
3. In a mixing bowl, whisk together all wet ingredients aside from the coffee/hot water until smooth.
4. Add in the dry ingredients, making sure to spoon and level the flour, protein powder and cocoa. Do not pack them into your measuring cups!
5. Whisk just until the dry ingredients start to blend into the batter, then pour in your brewed coffee or hot water.
6. Whisk until smooth. The batter will be on the thicker side.
7. Transfer to your prepared pan and bake for 22-28 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. The top may crack slightly as it bakes, this is normal.
8. Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for about 15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to finish cooling.
9. While it cools, make the frosting. Beat the butter with an electric mixer for about 2 minutes, then mix in the cocoa powder.
10. Add in the powdered sugar, then the vanilla and milk until you get your desired consistency.
11. Once the cake is completely cooled, add the frosting, slice and enjoy!
