Oh my, I can’t believe that May is coming to an end — my health and fitness life has been very surreal with this COVID19 situation and quarantining. While more and more of life’s things are making it back on the essential list, most of us are still practicing social distancing, doing as many things as we can (or want to) virtually, and taking life at a slower pace.

What have you been doing with your quarantine time? If you are like many (and me), you may be baking like crazy . . . to deal with these crazy times. You could call it anxiety-baking, stress-baking, or even “procrastibaking”! This sort of baking helps increase feelings of comfort among chaos and serves as a special little indulgence when feeling isolated and a little deprived.

But don’t worry, my Mocha Cappuccino Protein Cheesecake Brownie is a low-cal, protein-packed option that is amazingly delicious, too! Just 167 calories per serving and over 22 grams of protein!

It’s also gluten-free and Paleo, if those are dietary concerns.
