One Minute Chocolate Cake in a Mug

By Kathy C.

(can be gluten-free!)

If desired, top with Healthy Chocolate Frosting.

Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon plus 2 tsp cocoa powder
• 3 tablespoons spelt flour (or white, or Arrowhead Mills gf)
• 1/8 tsp salt
• 2 tsp sugar or evaporated cane juice (edit: xylitol works as well)
• 1/4 tsp baking powder
• 1 stevia packet (or 1 tablespoon more sugar)
• 2-3 tsp coconut oil or vegetable oil (Edit: many commenters have said it still tastes good if you sub applesauce or mashed banana. But I can’t personally vouch for the results if you make that substitution.)
• 3 tablespoons milk of choice (I used almond milk)
• 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract

Preparation

Step 1

Mug cake recipe: Combine dry ingredients and mix very, very well. Add liquid, stir, then transfer to a little dish, ramekin, or even a coffee mug. Microwave 30-40 seconds. If you don’t want to eat it straight out of the dish, be sure to spray your dish first (and then wait for it to cool before trying to remove it).
