3-MINUTE MOLTEN DOUBLE CHOCOLATE MUG CAKE



3-Minute Molten Double Chocolate Mug Cake image

Jessie Sheehan's easy 3-minute chocolate mug cake recipe is rich, tender, and moist, with a soft center reminiscent of a molten lava cake.

Provided by Jessie Sheehan

Time 3m

Yield Yield: 1 mug cake

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 Tbsp. vegetable oil
½ cup (50 g) granulated sugar
1 large egg yolk
½ tsp. vanilla extract
3 Tbsp. sour cream
½ tsp. baking powder
½ tsp. kosher salt
3 Tbsp. all-purpose flour
2 Tbsp. Dutch-processed cocoa powder
3 Tbsp. semisweet chocolate chips
Vanilla ice cream, for serving

Steps:

  • Stir together the oil and sugar in a 12- or 14- ounce ceramic, microwave- safe mug, using a fork. Stir in the egg yolk and vanilla, and then the sour cream. Stir in the baking powder and salt, and then the flour and cocoa powder.
  • Stir in the chocolate chips and microwave on high for 1 to 2 minutes, depending on your microwave (in my microwave, 1 ½ minutes is just about golden). The cake is done when it rises above the edge of the mug (or close to it) and its top looks glossy and set, but not wet.
  • Let cool briefly- it will collapse-sorry, but true. The center will be more molten-like than cake-like, very soft, and very hot-be careful! Enjoy ASAP with vanilla ice cream.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor.
  • Make sure your butter and milk are melted and smooth before adding them to the other ingredients.
  • Don't overmix the batter; overmixing can make the cakes tough.
  • Microwave the cakes in short intervals, checking them frequently to prevent overcooking.
  • Let the cakes cool for a minute or two before eating them, so the centers have time to set.

Conclusion:

Molten lava mug cakes are a quick and easy dessert that is perfect for chocolate lovers. With just a few simple ingredients, you can have a delicious and decadent treat in minutes. Whether you're looking for a special occasion dessert or a simple weeknight treat, chocolate molten lava mug cakes are sure to please.
