Tired of protein shakes
Get a box of sugar free pudding mix. Put the pudding mix in a bowl with a scoop or two of protein powder (you can use chocolate pudding and chocolate protein powder, or vanilla protein and vanilla pudding, or you can use different flavors, like chocolate pudding and cappuccino protein powder to make mocha pudding), add milk and mix as directed on the pudding package.

Sure you can use cocoa. Use water or milk, whichever you prefer. If you want extra protein, use milk. If you want to keep calories low, use water.

You have to do the math. How many ounces of pudding does one box make? Two cups? 16 ounces? So if there is 30 grams protein in 16 ounces, 30 divided by 16 is 1.875, so there is almost two grams of protein per ounce. So two ounces would be roughly four grams of protein.
