Very interesting brother. Do you mind sharing the recipe with me. Not familiar with this mug cake.
Of course!

Take a coffee mug and spray the sides with some cooking spray or butter. Then it's--

1 egg or 1/4 cup egg whites
Tbs milk or milk substitute
Tbs flour or cake mix
1/4 tsp baking power
Scoop of whatever flavor protein you're craving

Stir all that together in the mug and microwave it for 45-60 seconds. It will rise and you'll think it will overflow. If it does, just stop the microwave for a couple seconds and start it back up. If you cook it too long it will become very spongy and dry. But there's also a bit of a learning curve since microwaves vary.

Enjoy!

How many times have you went through the Cooking with whey thread and saw how many mug cakes I made?








They take a matter of 2 minutes to make lol
I've honestly never paid enough attention to see it called a mug cake or seen a recipe for it. I usually skim through that until something jumps at me. Still not seeing a recipe with what you shared so I guess we can add another check to the total. 🤷‍♂️
After further review I see I had quoted another user as well. Appreciate the help per usual Bob. Love when you try to steer me to another 10 min video everytime. Lol

To be fair, Bob’s cakes look much better than mine. And I’m sure I got the initial idea from his thread.

Just had one using Strawberry Cheesecake. Surprisingly tasty. No berry taste but the cheesecake flavor gave it a nice sweet finish

Well I appreciate the quick recipe question solution you gave me. See what i did there? Lol
In any case whether they are inferior or not it was quick and to the point. You are appreciated my dude! :)

Right? Sometimes it seems like you are stabbing someone's dog when you ask to have a simple recipe posted. Lol
I've often times been sent on scavenger hunts in hopes to be helped find a recipe when I see something I wouldn't mind adding to my quick and easy treat recipe list.
He came back with a great quick and easy response that made my day! Good guy right there!

I’m glad i didn’t buy cake pop. Just tried it today and wasn’t impressed
This is often the case. One person's treasure is another's trash. People raved about blondie and I couldn't even finish a tub because I wasn't a fan at all. Many people rank snickerdoodle at the top of their list and I truthfully haven't included it in an order in years and would be ok with never having it again even though it is something I can enjoy. Just so many other flavors that I prefer over it and just not my cup of tea. We often see so many different responses where 1 user now puts it in their top 3 and another claims they can't understand why we even produce it. Everyone's tastes vary but too often times folks act as if their reaction to a flavor is shared across the whole customer base.

Any 4th of July deals on select coming up? I’ve been out of FCC select for a few weeks which is unacceptable. Still need to try cake pop and maybe strawberry cheesecake as well

His recipe turned out just about perfect. Only issue was it made me realize I need better tasting protein powder (normally just get pretty plain/bland flavors since I typically blend it with a lot of fruit/vegetables...which mask just about any protein flavor). For this go-around I ended up cheating and adding some caramel syrup to make it taste better.

Hell yes my dude! Well it is appreciated! I think all of us gym rats have at least some fat kid blood in us. Always looking for some type of treat to sneak in and still keep my macros good. Sweets are for sure my weakness. :)

Not sure how it happened but the wife dropped my second and last tub of cake pop select from the pantry and dumped about a quarter of the tub out onto the floor. Man was I half tempted to salvage what I could into a separate container to use when I run out and am jonesin.

FCC is top notch and CnC was once my top flavor. Good share on the sale my brother.

Getting down to about half a tub left before I run out of cake pop. Absolutely love this flavor so I'll have to stock up on more. What's everyone using right now?

There aren’t any better codes than 15% are there? Debating on buying one of the 7x 5 serving sample packs to try strawberry + cake pop for the first time and give some of the flavors I haven’t had in awhile another shot

After talking to the big guy I got a confirmation that we aren't offering any more deals at this moment. Keep your eyes peeled though because who knows what will come soon. :)

About to give cake pop a try mixed with WCM. Seems like a very strange combo but with me having both containers cracked at the moment I'm gonna try it anyway. I'll let you all know how it goes. :)

Well the cake pop and white chocolate ming mixture in the ninja with some milk and ice was actually pretty damn good. The WCM was pretty over powering as i kind of expected but the cake pop was evident and added a nice little touch it. Not bad at all.

Well my order of cake pop select is in now. We shall see if I can make these final few scoops stretch until the goods arrive. It will be difficult but I'll just mix it with others to stretch it as long as possible.

Who would be interested in a Select Cake Pop promo or giveaway. It would either be for 1 or 2 winners who would get a 27 serving tub on the house just for leaving a review upon completion of the product. I'm thinking we would start out with 1 winner unless we hit a certain quota of submissions then a 2nd tub would be given to another lucky winner. Show me some likes or replies to prove to the big guy the promo would be worth having. :)

I tried this once...only once. It was weird. As for mixing, cake pop does well with both FCC and snickerdoodle.
With FCC I’m reminded of yellow cake with chocolate icing. A snickerdoodle mix gives it carrot cake (without the cream cheese icing) flavor.

To me cake pop alone with milk is underwhelming but really shines in about any other situation. It brings out stuff in other flavors and bakes/fries up awesomely!

I wouldn’t enter a promo but I would throw my support behind it!

Cake pop reviewer right here! I’ve tried all of the flavors except cake pop, WCM and strawberry cheesecake. I love Select and how thick it mixes. I haven’t had a flavor I didn’t like.

The promo hasn't been decided so I don't have many details to give. But it would most likely be for people looking to try it and haven't yet.

Random post, but I picked up a tub of PES select frosted chocolate cupcake yesterday...You guys absolutely nailed the flavoring, it quickly jumped into my top 5 flavors of all time. Looking forward to the next insider so I can stock up!

I agree this is a very underrated flavor, the best in their lineup IMO.

Also I’d be down for a promo on cake pop!

I think a good portion of our followers have raved about FCC no doubt about it. Definitely an extremely good flavor.

I'm pushing for the promo brother!

Well, I haven't bought any PES Select in quite a while. Would be interested in trying some Cake Pop. Looking for an alternative to Sparta...

Alright my brother. Another tally for a possible promo push! Truth is I've been told it is a possibility but there has to be enough interest shown to be made possible. So if you are interested and lurking just drop a like on my initial comment where I brought up the possibility or better yet throw a like and a comment here explaining you are interested. Lets make this happen! Promos will continue If the interest on our initial home base here at AM is still strong. With so many different outlets now where we are featured I want to continue to show my gratitude to our fellow AMers. I just need a little help with the push from you fine folks. :)

Alright guys. I'm extremely pleased to be able to let you all know I got the go ahead for a promo. I'll be hopefully and most likely getting it up by the end of the week. Trying to decide what exactly I'm going to do for the promo, but it will most likely be for a tub of cake pop to applicants who have not tried the flavor yet. If we have enough people applying I've been given the green light to possibly make it 2 winners who will each receive a tub a piece of Select Cake Pop. The number of promo winners will be completely depend on how many applicants show interest. Thank you all for throwing the likes and comments up after I requested it. Your continued support and interest is what allowed me to make this promo happen!
