Description

Warm ooey gooey chocolate cake in a mug. Quick and delicious dessert especially for the late night sugar cravings.

Ingredients

  • 4 Tablespoons All-purpose Flour
  • 1 Tablespoon Brown Sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Splenda
  • 2 Tablespoons Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
  • 1 pinch Baking Powder
  • 1 pinch Salt
  • 1 whole Egg
  • 2 Tablespoons Skim Milk
  • 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil, Plus 1 Teaspoon For Greasing The Mug
  • 1 Tablespoon Powdered Sugar For Dusting (optional)

Preparation

Prep: Grease the microwavable mug with teaspoon of oil, making sure to evenly grease the top edges so that cake doesn’t stick to it in the microwave.

In a bowl add flour, sugar, Splenda, cocoa, baking powder and salt. Mix to combine everything evenly.

Add egg to the greased mug and whisk with a fork for 30 seconds. Add milk and oil and whisk for a minute.

Add 2 tablespoons of the mixed dry Ingredients to the mug and whisk into a smooth batter using a fork. Add the remaining dry Ingredients and whisk everything together for 1 minute.

Microwave for 1 minute and 30 seconds. (Check with a toothpick; if cake batter is still gooey, microwave for up to 10 seconds more.)

Decorate with powdered sugar and serve warm.

This was so much fun to make and perfect for a late night sweet tooth. My son put cinn and choc chips in his as did my hubby. We got home late after a basketball game and fired up the grill for hamburgers and this was great for our sweet tooth. I can’t wait to try your other recipes.
