Microwave Eggless Chocolate Mug Cake is one of my new favourites. The beauty of this recipe is you will never have to worry that your sweet tooth will go unsatisfied again with a microwave cake you can make in minutes.
This Microwave Eggless Chocolate Mug Cake could not be more authentic. Made from the usual suspects for a chocolate cake recipe — like flour, chocolate, butter, sugar etc — this decadent chocolate cake with that special soft texture is the perfect end to any day. Now instead of making a whole cake you can have just 1 serving in no time at all. And this cake batter can sit in its little mug in the fridge for up to 3 days, so you can enjoy a single-serving treat anytime!
For this recipe, I have replaced the butter with olive oil and sugar with honey to make it a little guilt free. But feel free to retain it in its original form. Both ways it tastes awesome!
What is a mug cake?
A cake that is made in a mug! It’s great because you don’t need to whip out a bunch of tools to make this simple mug cake.
Can this mug cake be made in the oven?
No, this recipe was solely developed for the microwave.
Can we make this with all purpose flour?
You can, but I tested it with all purpose flour and it just came out spongy and not the texture I wanted. For a mug cake, I wanted a moist and gooey texture instead of fluffy cake like texture.
Choice of mugs?
You can use regular 200 ml glass or ceramic tea cups which are microwave safe. Here I have used 320 ml transparent mugs which are great for displaying mug cakes and desserts.
