July is my month people!! Did you know that July is Ice Cream Month!? As if anyone needs an excuse to enjoy more ice cream, am I right? I’m no stranger to fitting ice cream in my macros on a regular basis, and Swell, The Next Wave of Ice Cream, makes it so easy! Did you know that Swell Ice Cream has more protein per serving than any other better-for-you ice cream out there?! Every single flavor they offer has 10g per 1/2 cup serving, and less than 2.5g of fat! I just CAN’T STOP SHOUTING ABOUT THIS!! My favorite way to eat Swell Ice Cream is on top of this warm, fresh, berry mug cake cobbler!
The Vanilla Bean flavor is magical with this berry mug cake recipe. I always grab a few flavors from my local Smith’s. You can find Swell Ice Cream all over the U.S. To find a location near you, use the location finder >> HERE. The hub’s favorite flavor is Mint Chip, duh. I also love the Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip and Salted Caramel Crunch. This summer has been so fantastic you guys. My hubby and I snuck off to Salt Lake City, UT for almost a week in June, we recently went to Lava Hot Springs, ID with my family, then to my brother-in-law’s grandparent’s beautiful cabin in Mammoth, UT, and we’re now flirting with the idea of sneaking in a quick trip to the beach with the kids before the school year starts. For us, summer means travel as much as we can, enjoy all the things, and Crossfit our hearts out when we are in town. I’d say we’re doing a pretty good job of it all so far.
Now on to this lovely berry mug cake cobbler recipe and the details about the macros! I always set aside a good amount of carbs for the end of the day. These summer days are sometimes long, and I love nothing more than treating myself to some dessert as a reward for surviving and working hard. The macros for just the cake are very reasonable in my opinion, especially for a cake! Macros for just the cake: p9.7 c40.9 f2.3. Macros for 1/2 cup Swell Vanilla Bean: p10 c19 f1.5. I love topping this cake with 1-2 tablespoons of walnuts (depending on how much fat I have to spare), defrosted blueberry “juice”, and sometimes some whip cream! If you give this recipe a try, please let me know!

Ice cream is my jam too! SOOO good! Love Swell and your berry cobbler mug cake to go with it. Such a great idea to use pancake mix to make it.
Pancake mix for cobbler topping? How much fun! I’d never thought of that idea, but must try it now.
I don’t know what I like better, the cobbler or the ice cream. Together they sound AMAZING!
