This uber-chocolatey mug cake just happens to be vegan, but everyone is sure to appreciate this decadent little indulgence.

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1-ounce square bittersweet or dark chocolate, broken into pieces, or 2 tablespoons semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips (I've been using Ghiradelli 60% baking chocolate as that's what I have on hand)
2 teaspoons coconut oil (can substitute vegetable oil)
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour or white whole wheat flour
1 tablespoon cocoa powder
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk
1 tablespoon pure maple syrup
1/4 teaspoon instant espresso powder (optional)
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract (optional)
1/16 teaspoon or about 6 drops peppermint extract
Coconut whipped cream
Mini chocolate chips
Fresh mint

Steps:

  • Place the chocolate and the coconut oil into a microwave-proof mug. Microwave at 50% power for 30 seconds and stir. If the chocolate is not yet melted, microwave again at 50% power in 15-second increments, stirring each time, until the chocolate is melted. It usually takes me about one minute total.
  • Add the remaining ingredients except optional toppings. Stir with a fork until combined.
  • Microwave on high until risen and just until dry to the touch, 1-2 minutes (in my microwave it takes 1 minute 15 seconds).
  • Add toppings if you like and serve.

Overall, I thought this cake was just okay. It wasn't as good as I was hoping it would be.

I had some trouble getting the cake to cook evenly. The top was cooked through, but the bottom was still a little gooey.

This cake is a bit too sweet for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I think it would be perfect with a cup of coffee or tea.

I'm not a huge fan of mint, but I still enjoyed this cake. The chocolate flavor is really rich and the mint is subtle.
