What does your mug shot look like? No, not the one with you wearing pinstripes and a grumpy face. Take a peek at your coffee cup. A mug with nothing more than a strong brew is criminal. But you can redeem yourself with this simple, two-minute recipe. It makes a single-serving protein brownie, so you aren’t handcuffed to an entire chocolate cake or three dozen cookies. After all, hanging around the healthier crowd will help keep you out of trouble.
