Mug cakes are a shortcut dessert and a great alternative to a regular cake, but they won’t hold their texture as well as an actual cake. Mug cakes should be eaten immediately after they are cooked for the best taste and texture. The texture can become rubbery if a mug cake is placed in the fridge.

Ingredients

  • 6 tablespoons 2% milk
  • 2 tablespoons canola oil
  • 1 large egg yolk, room temperature
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 7 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 3 tablespoons packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons semisweet chocolate chips
  • chocolate fudge sauce, optional

Directions

  1. Spray a 16-ounce microwave-safe coffee mug with cooking spray. Combine milk and oil in mug. Whisk in egg yolk and vanilla extract. Add flour, brown sugar, baking powder and salt; stir to combine. Add chocolate chips; stir to combine.
  2. Microwave on high until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, 2-1/2 minutes; mug will be hot. Serve immediately. If desired, drizzle with chocolate fudge sauce and sprinkle with additional chocolate chips.
