This uber-chocolatey mug cake just happens to be vegan, but everyone is sure to appreciate this decadent little indulgence.
Ingredients
11-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)
2teaspoonscoconut oilcan substitute vegetable oil
3tablespoonsall-purpose flour or white whole wheat flour
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).
