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 the butter and chocolate are melted smoothly before adding the other ingredients.
  • Do not overmix the batter, as this will make the cakes tough.
  • Bake the cakes for the exact amount of time specified in the recipe. Overbaking will make the cakes dry.
  • Serve the cakes immediately after baking, while the centers are still molten.

Conclusion:

Chocolate molten lava mug cakes are a quick and easy dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a decadent and delicious treat that will satisfy your sweet tooth. These cakes are also great for parties, as they can be made ahead of time and reheated just before serving. So next time you are craving a chocolate fix, give this recipe a try.
