It doesn’t even hold a candle to oven-baked cake, either, so there’s really no reason to eat it, other than instant gratification. I calculated the calories in this recipe (using almond milk and Ghirardelli double chocolate chips) and when it came in just under 200 calories, I had to give it a try. It was moist and fluffy/custardy (if that even makes sense), compared to dense and spongey. It’s miles better than the “standard” mug cake! Now let’s hope I don’t make it a too frequent habit and save it for a special treat… Thanks for sharing!
