If you’re anything like me, you grew up loving sugar. Candy, cookies, cake… whatever you could get your hands on. However as we mature and grow, we come to realize that living off of cocoa pebbles and cupcakes is not only unrealistic.. it’s incredibly unhealthy (darn it!). The good news is, with the right ingredients, you can “have your cake and eat it too”. Having one of those childhood sugar cravings? Give this healthy cake a try!
Done with school stuff for today.
good-night meal because I’m craving chocolate sooo bad.

(If I eat this post-workout, I don’t use peanut butter or any healthy fats. They slow down digestion which defeats the purpose of the fast-absorbing whey protein powder and whatever simple carb I include).
