The winner of the Chobani giveaway is Danica! Danica won an entire case of Chobani fruit flavor yogurt! She is Cho-lucky!
Good news! I have two prizes for everyone else that entered the contest (and even for those of you that didn’t)…
- A coupon you can download for your next purchase of Chobani
- A great recipe inspired by Chobani T-shirts, because I think CUPCAKES are Nothing But Good!
Nothing But Good Cho-Chocolate Cupcakes
(Recipe adapted from Clean Eating Magazine’s Sour Cream Cupcakes, May/June 2009)Ingredients
- 1 cup unsweetened natural cocoa powder
- 1 1/4 cup Splenda for Baking, divided
- 1/4 cup vanilla protein powder
- 1/4 tsp kosher salt
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- 1 cup Chobani Plain 0% Greek Yogurt (NuVal score – 94!)
- 1/3 cup milk (I used unsweetened almond milk)
- 1 T olive oil
- 1/2 tsp vanilla
- 1 whole egg plus 2 egg whites
Frosting:
- 1/2 cup Chobani Plain 0% Greek Yogurt
- 1 T agave nectar (or honey)
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper cupcake liners.
In a large mixing bowl, combine cocoa powder, 1 cup of the Splenda, protein powder, salt, and baking soda.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together Chobani, milk, oil, vanilla, and whole egg.
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in wet ingredients. Combine everything with a rubber spatula.
Add egg whites to a large mixing bowl. Whip whites until they begin to get foamy. Add remaining 1/4 cup Splenda gradually to whites. Continue whipping whites into medium-stiff peaks.
Fold whites in thirds into cake batter with a rubber spatula.
Fill each of the 12 cupcake liners 3/4 full with batter. Bake for approximately 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of a cupcake comes out clean. Remove from oven and let cupcakes cool.
Combine the Chobani with agave nectar and frost your cupcakes. I topped mine with a piece of dark chocolate, but a red raspberry or strawberry would work nicely, too.
Now, I really must go eat another cupcake…they are Cho-Cho good!
