Servings: 2
Calories: 250kcal
Equipment
- 2 ramekins (3.5 inch, 6 ounce capacity)
Ingredients
- ½ teaspoon butter to grease the mugs
For the mug cake
- 1 ½ tablespoon coconut flour
- ½ tsp baking powder
- 2 tablespoon cacao powder or cocoa powder
- 2 tbsp powdered sweetener
- 1 egg medium
- 5 tablespoon heavy cream
- 2 tablespoon sugar free chocolate chips optional
- ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract optional
Instructions
- In a bowl, combine your dry ingredients - coconut flour, baking powder, cacao powder, sweetener. Make sure there are no lumps.
- Add your wet ingredients - the egg, cream and vanilla extract. Mix well.
- Stir in the chocolate chips and let the batter rest for a minute.
- Melt ½ teaspoon butter each in 2 mugs or ramekins (30 seconds) and grease the insides. This is an important step if you want to turn your mug cakes out onto a plate. Divide the batter between the mugs/ramekins.
- Microwave both ramekins at the same time on high for 90 seconds. Don't microwave any longer or your cakes will become dry.
- Enjoy straight out of the ramekin or turn out onto a plate. See post and notes for an optional chocolate sauce!
