Have you ever tried making a microwave mug cake before? I’m relatively new to the concept and I’m not going to lie: it’s a little life changing. I happen to LOVE cake but MAN is making a whole cake a little bit too much work at times. Even a simple sheet cake feels daunting to me sometimes; no matter how intense the chocolate craving might be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ENTER this easy mug cake. Honestly, “easy” is an understatement because this mug cake recipe could not be any simpler.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

^^^^Look how fluffy that cake is! When I first made a mug cake (I tried out a vanilla mug cake first), I could NOT believe how perfect it comes out. Seriously so fluffy and so delicious!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to make a mug cake:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Mix. Microwave. DONE! It’s seriously that easy and is this even a recipe if it’s SO SIMPLE!?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I looked at some different recipes that have you mix everything in separate bowls and then pour it into the mugs. That takes out half of the fun of having NO dishes (I mean, except the mug) and just stirring everything together right inside of the mug.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speaking of the mug: the batter will rise quite a bit so you want to have a decent amount of space left in the mug or else the batter will spill over the sides. I tested this with quite a few different mugs and discovered that you want at least 1 inch between the batter and the top of the mug. To be on the safe side, I would put a paper towel under the mug just in case it does spill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So to make my easy chocolate mug cake, you start by mixing together all of the dry ingredients before adding in all of the wet ingredients. Right inside of the mug. Once it’s fully mixed, just pop the mug in the microwave for 2 minutes, let it cool slightly, and then ENJOY!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Can I make this mug cake gluten free?:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For ever baking recipe that I post, I always get asked 10,000 times if it can be made gluten free. I honestly do not do a ton of gluten free baking BUT when I do, I typically just use a 1-1 gluten free flour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m a big fan of Bob’s Red Mill 1-1 gluten free flour<\/a> as well as Cup4Cup gluten free flour<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’ll definitely update this post once I’ve made a gluten free version (coming soon!).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m also going to work on a sugar free mug cake recipe so be on the lookout for that :D<\/p>\n\n\n\n
