Here’s an easy low-sugar chocolate mug cake for two (or ok, for one) 🍫
Sundays are for treat-yo-self, and this will be ready in 20 min so it’s roll up your sleeves time. You can make it in the microwave too (then it’ll be 5 min total) but it’s so much better in the oven (or air-fryer) 👌
You gotta let me know if you make it.

Servings: 2 mug cakes
Calories: 127kcal
Equipment
- Ramekins or other baking dish
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup flour (30 g) gf all purpose if desired
- 1 tbsp sugar (12 g) sub granulated sweetener
- 1 tbsp cocoa powder (6 g)
- 1/4 tsp baking powder

- 3-4 tbsp (nut) milk (45 g) I use unsweetened almond milk
- drop of vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp chocolate chips (15 g)
Instructions
- Preheat oven / air fryer to 350F (if using the oven) and grease one big or two small ramekins.
- In a small bowl mix together flour, sugar, cocoa, baking powder, salt.
- Add oil (optional but will take it up a notch), milk, vanilla, and whisk or stir until no clumps remain.
