Well I made several of these and if you use this method it raises 4X and comes out like
food or Shoney's hot fudge cake
Ingredient List:
1 egg
1 Tbs unsalted butter
1 Tbs heavy cream or half%half
1 Tbs sugar [use a SF equivalent]
1 Tbs Jay Robb's vanilla (or chocolate) whey protein with stevia
1 Tbs unsweetened dark chocolate cocoa powder
1/1 tsp cream of tarter (optional but improves texture)
Method:
Melt butter in a ramiken, add cream and the dry ingredients. Whisk egg well then whip it in. Microwave mixture lightly covered till cooked dry. Top with melted LC chocolate and or whipped cream.
This is delish-- the protein acts like gluten does in a bread recipe to make it rise. If you want fancy, just separate the egg white, whisk with the cream of tarter then fold in with the rest of the mixed ingredients (I haven't tried this yet).
The dog was really begging, but only got a small taste. I had two myself with a cup of decaf, I hope the caffeine in the cocoa doesn't keep me awake

The left over cake got very moist overnight in the fridge and it was great this morning with coffee and a few dollar store cashews!

calling Chocolate an aphrodisiac is probably stretching it a bit, but eating chocolate does make you feel good and can actually induce or 'mimic' the feelings of being in love.

Avocado, broccoli, onion, garlic and most nuts are also somewhat toxic to dogs
