Preheat oven to 350°F and line an 8x8” baking pan with parchment paper.
In a bowl, whisk flour, whey and whey-casein chocolate protein powders, unsweetened cocoa powder, zero calorie sugar replacement and baking soda.
In a large bowl, whisk together hot water, applesauce, butter and lemon juice.
Add dry mix to wet, and gently fold until just combined.
DO NOT OVER-MIX or protein powder will make the cake dense.
Pour batter into pan, and bake for 20-25 minutes.
Don’t let the batter sit out.
A tester inserted into the center should come out clean but moist, and center of cake springy to touch.
Filling:
When cake is still hot, poke holes in cake(using rounded end of wooden spoon) using about 1” apart.
Condensed Milk: In a bowl, whisk milk and protein powder.
Caramel: In another bowl stir almond butter powder, peanut butter, caramel syrup and water.
Add milk/water little at a time.
Pour protein ‘condensed milk’ into holes; Fill completely.
Then pour sugar-free ‘caramel’; Fill and spread excess around.
Let cake cool completely.
Then place in fridge about 4 hours.
Toppings:
Spread cool whip on top of cake, top with toffee bits and chopped chocolate.
Slice into 9 pieces, drizzle with caramel syrup and enjoy.
