How to Make 2 Minute Eggless Microwave Chocolate Cake

  1. In a large microwave-safe mug, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, and salt until well combined.
  2. Add the milk, oil, and vanilla extract. Stir vigorously until you have a smooth batter. Add water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the batter is pourable but not watery.
  3. Microwave on high for 1 minute 30 seconds to 2 minutes, or until the cake is cooked through. Cooking time may vary depending on your microwave's wattage. Start with 1 minute 30 seconds and add increments of 15 seconds until the cake is done.
  4. Let the cake cool in the mug for 30 seconds before carefully removing it. The mug will be hot!
  5. Serve immediately. Top with your favorite additions such as powdered sugar, whipped cream, ice cream, or a drizzle of chocolate sauce.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
