Double Layer Chocolate Cake







     Sometimes dreams really do come true!!!  Case in point, my Double Layer Chocolate Cake!  Not only is this BEAUTIFUL to gaze upon, the taste knocked my socks off!  And if life wasn't already good enough, an 1/8th of the cake is only 219 calories, 8g net carbs and 22g protein.  Doesn't all this just put a smile on your face!?  I know it does mine  ;)

2 Tablespoons unsweetened Cocoa Powder
1 scoop Quest Chocolate Milkshake Protein Powder
