2 Mins Eggless Microwave Chocolate Mug Cake

Updated on February 24, 2019

This 2 mins Eggless Microwave Chocolate Mug Cake with the hint of coffee is the quickest and easiest dessert or snack that you can hope to make when the craving to eat something sweet hits you. The cake is moist, rich and with a crumb just the way I like it.

An elegant and classy dessert to serve and eat if you are going for portion controlling anything sweet that you eat.

My kids love this a lot and as they are old enough to measure, mix and safely operate the microwave, I let them to make it by themselves.

I’m sure its much better than making and eating instant noodles whenever a snack attack hits them.

This recipe is adapted from Microwave Chocolate Cake but I made it into an eggless one for the sake of kids as I do not want them to make a mess while breaking up the eggs.

There are so many flavors to play with this cake especially. Earlier I was using Vinegar like in this Eggless Chocolate Strawberry Mug Cake but since the kids started hating the smell of it, I adjusted the milk and oil accordingly.

You can also use buttermilk instead. Sometimes I add coconut oil and the aroma of the cake will be simply amazing. If using coconut oil, leave out coffee powder and avoid using any kind of extracts or essence.
