How to make Chocolate mug cake
Egg-less
- In a preferably microwavable mug add flour, cocoa powder, salt and baking powder.
- Add milk, oil and sweetener of choice.
- Mix everything together until smooth. Mind to scrape the side of the mug several times.
- Put the mug into microwave oven for 60 – 120 seconds depending on the power level used. Use a smaller mug when making this cake first time. Once the cake is poking out of the mug, we can take a note of the time needed for it next time.
- With baking powder only we get an airy, crumbly texture.
- It keeps as well as any cake but it will shrink in size.
Enjoy!

- It’s denser and chewier than the cake with baking powder and it gets heavier over time. Enjoy right away or keep it in the fridge.
