Steps
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350 °F) (350°F (180 °C)). Prepare individual baking tins or molds by greasing them lightly with oil or cooking spray, or line them with parchment paper.
Add the Greek yogurt, egg whites, cookie-flavored pancake mix, and vanilla- or cookie-flavored protein powder to a mixing bowl.
Mix the ingredients thoroughly until the batter is smooth and evenly combined, with no visible dry pockets.
Add unsweetened almond milk a little at a time, mixing after each addition, until the batter reaches the desired consistency.
Add dark chocolate pieces to the batter and fold them through evenly.
Transfer the batter to the prepared baking tins or molds, dividing it evenly between two servings. Do not overfill the tins, as the mixture may rise substantially during baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20–25 minutes, monitoring closely toward the end so the mixture does not overflow or 'explode.' The cakes should be visibly set and lightly firm in the center.
Remove from the oven and allow the cakes to cool briefly in the tins before serving.
Notes
The creator noted in a comment that the recipe was originally intended to be a cake but unexpectedly turned out this way, apparently because of the protein mix. The amount of milk and chocolate is intentionally left flexible in the source.
