  • 1 tablespoon unsweetened cacao powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 tablespoon melted coconut oil, olive oil or melted butter
  • 1 – 2 tablespoons maple syrup or your favorite liquid sweetener (to taste)
  • 3 tablespoons milk of choice
  • 1 piece of dark chocolate

Instructions:

  1. In a mug mix the dry ingredients together
  2. Add the wet ingredients and stir until combined

  4. Cook in the microwave for 35 – 60 seconds (800W). All microwaves are different, so the cooking time might differ. I recommend checking the cake after 35 seconds and then cooking longer if needed
