This is seriously the best chocolate mug cake and SO easy to whip up when you get a chocolate craving! Don't forget that there's always the full, printable recipe on my website (and usually some extra recipe tips). Hope you guys like this one! :) x
Downshiftology just made it for my fiance and I. Soo rich and moist, thank you, made our evening
It looks great! Can I make it just with eggwhites?
Downshiftology ok
Can i replace almond flour for outmeal flour?
I have stopped using microwave owen is it possible to make this cake in a regular owen? ❤️
I replaced the maple syrup with honey and the coconut oil with butter (because that's what I had at hand) and added a tiiiiiiiiiiiny amount of salt and powdered instant coffee and I haven't been able to stop making it. 4/6 eggs from the crate are gone.
Haha. Love it!
i did the same soo good i had coconut flower on hand
yay will try this
I added a chocolate sauce as topping with coconut milk+ mapple sirup+cocoa powder. I also used half part almond powder half coconut powder. it's delicious and taste like bounty❤
Sounds great! 😊
@@Downshiftology and today, because i hadn't enough almond flour, i added coconut powder and 1 tablespoon of barley. i used almond butter instead of oil. well, the result was much tastier than my expectation. it was like fondant au chocolat, with a delicious flavour of coconut and melty heart :-) Thank you Lisa for this wonderful recipe.
I don't have Microwave :(
Can i use the conventional oven?
Chantal Lumière, hi I am wondering the exact same thing ...
Yes you can but it will take longer to cook
I think you can use a ramekin and bake it for like 10 minutes
Thanks for posting this! On my meal plan for tonight. 😋
Wonderful! Hope you love this recipe 😊
It was totally fabulous!
We have a nut allergy in our house - what other GF flour could we use?
Never understood the appeal of a mug cake. If I’m gonna get out all my baking supplies, I’m gonna go all in. I’m gonna make 3 chocolate sheet cakes and package it up for the next several weeks. Unless you make a giant batch of premixed dry ingredients and store it in your closet, for a “just-add-water” situation then it doesn’t seem worth it.
The disappointment when it's not vegan.
While I'm not vegan, many of my recipes are plant-based. Unfortunately, this one is not as I find it doesn't cook as well without the egg, given that almond flour is used rather than wheat flour. As I'm gluten-free (celiac), ensuring that a recipe tastes good GF is always my first priority. Hopefully you'll like some of my other recipes in the future! :) x
Downshiftology I understand where you're coming from , but there's more to it than knowing that it doesn't cook as well without the egg , it's ethics too and knowing where the egg comes from and how it's bad for your health. but great video!
So make it vegan 🙄
Flax and water sub for egg
Adxla music I believe grounded flax seeds works and water. Works as a replacement for eggs
1/4 Almond flour
2 tbsp of chocolate
Maple syrup
Coconut oil
1 egg
Vanilla extract
Mix
120 seconds
Bianca a teaspoon i guess
2 tbsp of maple syrup 1 tsp of coconut oil 1 tsp of vanilla extract
Should be 80 seconds, not 120
Thank you so much
its 4:09 am and I just made this . Now I'm eating it, it's still burning hot but I couldnt resist ...👌👌👌
This was good! I subbed peanut butter for the coconut oil and to make it vegan, I subbed one tablespoon of chia seeds mixed with two tablespoons of water for the egg. It was really good. Thank you!
Awesome - love those substitutions Pola! Glad you enjoyed it!
As an expert in microwave cakes, and as someone who made countless mug cakes in the microwave I can say very comfortably that this recipe is one of, if not THE BEST microwave mug cake I have ever tasted in my very long years of tasting them
And its pretty healthy too so there's that
1/4 cup almond flour
2 tb spoon raw Cacao powder
2 tb spoon maple syrup
1 t spoon coconut oil
1 t spoon vanilla extract
1 egg
You can substitute the egg for a Flaxmeal egg to make it Vegan and also Apple Sauce. 1 Tbsp of Flaxmeal and 2 Tbsp of water let it sit for 2 min
Thanks for sharing!
When I tell you that this is the best thing since cake!!. I didn't have any maple syrup so I used honey and I also swapped out the coconut oil for Ghee . Microwaved it for 1 minute 20 seconds. Finally, I turned it upside down onto a plate then placed a 60% Dark chocolate square from Giharadell and the heat from the cake melts it so beautifully. I'm sold! I just started the Paleo diet and this will come in handy.
Oh wow - that sounds amazing and I can just visualize that presentation! Well done! x
Thank You so much for sharing this recipe with the world! Do you have any other versions of this type of mug cake in other flavors?👍
I made it tonight very delicious !
I topped it with powdered sugar and hazelnuts, added some chocolate chips to the batter it turned out very delicious and satisfied my chocolate craving .
Thank you for the recipe.
Yay - that sounds perfect! So happy you loved it Lily!
I didn’t have almond flour, so I used rice flour instead. It came out perfectly! 🌸
Good to know this came out with rice flour! 😊
Thanks for commenting! Wanted to sub out almond flour.
How about coconut flour? Do you think it would work? Thanks!
I made this, and I was impressed with the texture, but it didn't taste good. It was not sweet enough.. perhaps some coconut sugar would make it good. :) and some healthy chocolate chips. I had to add sliced bananas on top to make it taste better.
I don't know how many comments I scrolled passed to find yours. I thought exactly the same things as you -- that the cake had a good texture but wasn't sweet enough at all, and that was with me using five tablespoons of almond flour and only one tablespoon of chocolate powder (actually chocolate mixed with coffee). The next time I make this, I am going to do three tablespoons of sugar-free syrup plus an extra tablespoon of powdered Splenda. That should double the sweetness while keeping the wet/dry ratios roughly the same.
Healthy Food then MICROWAVE?? Crazy!
Oxymoronic!!!!!
Holy moly this looks AMAZING! I have never had a mug cake but I have all of those ingredients so I am making this tonight! Thanks for the great video.
I always thought mug cakes were silly...until I made this. And now I'm obsessed. Lol. It's so simple and these ingredients are much healthier than most mug cake recipes. Hope you like it! :) x
I swear you save me every single time. I was having terrible chocolate craving and searched around the internet for a while for something easy to make but then I found your video, and thought "this woman always comes and saves the day!. I always end up doing your recipes! 😂. Already subscribed
Happy to hear you're loving Downshiftology recipes Elisa!
Is it just me or the quantities are not correct? Because mine got really thick before microwave, as it is too much powder and not enough liquid! Help!
I just made it and it was thicker too. Maybe I'll put a dash of milk or more coconut oil next time. The texture was dry but I guess it could also be bc I need to microwave it for less time.
Mine was perfect. You just have to properly mix and I microwaved for 1 min exactly
I’ve tried other mug cake recipes before and really wasn’t impressed. But wow this one is so good! I was so happy when I realised I had all of the ingredients on hand 👍👍👍
Yay! So happy you loved it!
Just found this recipe and I'm really excited to try it! I'm diabetic, though, so will have to use Stevia instead of the maple syrup.
Other mug cake recipes i have tried tasted bitter and rubbery. this is very satisfying and I don't feel like i'm overindulging or being deprived. I only had 3/4 spn of maple syrup left so i added a lil agave nectar to equal 2 tablespoons since thats what i had on hand. also added a 1/2 tspn mini carob chips for crunch. thank you!
Glad you enjoyed this mug cake recipe! 😊
I love this mug cake! Can I use coconut flour instead of almond flour? Or half almond and half coconut flour?
I love this recipe! I am so happy to have found your videos. You make sense, are calming, give me hope I can make sense out preparing good, nutritious meals. I already have a Vita-mix but rarely use it!! I never knew I could purchase more attachments! I was always trying to figure out where to store the plunger as when I needed it I couldn't find it because it was hidden in a drawer!! You have inspired me to scale down all of the accessories I have in my kitchen but NEVER use! I just moved and when the workmen are finished painting I will edit setting up my kitchen!! Thank you!!
This takes care of my late night chocolate cravings.. didn't have maple syrup so used honey instead and it came out perfect! It's so unbelievably simple, I'm not making any other type of chocolate cake ever!
So glad you enjoyed this one 😊
Thank you for making one thats not with normal milk and flour, gluten free flour doesnt work the same in most recipes
Hi Lisa, just made this lovely chocolate mug cake for dessert today..... It is SO good! Thank you 😊
Awesome! So happy you enjoyed it Pilar. I think I need to make it for dessert tonight as well. ;) x
I just made this today and it was SO delicious!! Ive never baked a "cake" with almond flour and it was just perfect! Hit the spot. Very filling too I must add. Thanks for sharing!! I'll definitely be making this again!
Wonderful! I'm glad you enjoyed the recipe!
I've enjoyed this cake several times. Delicious! I add a dash of sea salt and a sprinkle of cinnamon. I'm curious the results if a bit of baking powder was added.
OMG it looks delicious 😋 and super easy to make thanks for sharing 😃
Thanks so much! My brother cannot eat dairy or gluten so this is perfect for him!
Awesome - hope he enjoys it! :)
I tried it for my step daughter because she eats only gluten-free food. It turned out amazing and very quick. Love it and thank you.
Glad she loved this mug cake ❤️
I love how quick and easy this is! Perfect for when you're just cooking for one!
Exactly! It's built in portion control too. ;) x
I’ve made this twice and it’s delicious! I over cooked the first one. Cut the microwave time in half and second one was more moist. I used some vegetable oil because I didn’t have coconut oil. I also added just a few mini chocolate chips.
Awesome! Glad you enjoyed it!
I’m detoxing from mold toxicity
Can I have coco powder ?
So new to this diet
The only thing I found that keeps me really full is your amazing chilli recipe
Thanks
Great, quick allergy friendly mug cake recipe. Love your videos:-)
So happy you like my videos. Thanks so much! :) x
I love mug cake recipes - so simple and yummy! Thank you for this!
Me too! Simple and yummy are two very important qualities! ;) x
You said dairy free
One egg 🥚 is dairy right?
You may replace it with almond milk and a drop of ACV. It's a great egg replacer for mug cakes.
lovely, I will try. very easy and quick make recipe.
ive tried several GF and DF (except egg) mug cakes and this is hands down the best I've ever come across. Easy, healthy enough and you can get creative with it. thank you for sharing!!
Noone says which program, same for every youtuber, 120 seconds ok but microwaves have levels, high level, low, medium? There are 5 numbers on mine that's why l never try these
I'm so happy I found your channel! I've been binge watching. Excited to see more of your creations!
And that makes me happy that you're happy! :) Glad you're enjoying all my videos! x
Gracias!! Lo probaré❤
This is good, but EXCELLENT if you add a pinch of coarse sea salt. I even sprinkled a wee bit more on top and now I'm in love. Thank you so much for sharing this recipe!
That's a great idea!
I made this and added some oat-based vanilla ice cream on top, and let me tell you it was like a homemade, more health-conscious version of my all-time favorite dessert: the Chili’s molten lava cake! Thank you for all your great work!
love the mug cake recipe! !! so easy and fast. I am also GF. so I make most of my own meals. tks :).
This is by far my most popular dessert because it is so fast! And yay for GF-ers! Thanks Christina. :) x
Your videos are just wonderful! Thank you so much for sharing 🤗
How does this mug cake work? Without baking powder etc.? This is one flat cake thingy
I followed the exact directions and it came out very stiff and chewy. I rewatched this 8 times I did not mess up. Any tips?
Maybe u can use 2 Tablespoon of ground flaxseeds, and 2 T. Of almond flour? Add a T of almond milk ? If the batter seems too thick?
Simply wonderful! I added three Persian dates (chopped) to it for more sweetness, turned out well. Thanks Lisa 💕
I added peanut butter in the middle😋😋😋
Sounds delicious!
This is Amazing! ❤
Looks really good. Can’t wait to try makin it. Also, I was wondering if I could buckwheat flour instead of almond flour, would that work?
Thanx
Hi. Looks amazing :) I don’t like using microwave though...How much time do I need to bake it for in the conventional oven?
This recipe was meant specifically for the microwave, but I do have other chocolate dessert recipes on my website that use the oven. So make sure to check those out! :)
Can I use vanilla bean powder could I put my mug cake in a toaster oven?
I'm GF and it sure is hard finding a recipe that's gluten free. I was looking for a recipe to make tonight and this is perfect! Thank you!
Hope you enjoy it! And all of the recipe on my channel and website are GF. :)
Good to know! :)
I dont have almond or coconut flour any healthy substitute?
No microwave, will this work with Ramekin and an oven?
Omg I made this but I added some semi sweet chocolate chips in the middle and topped it with some halo top vanilla bean ice cream... delicious!
How about if i dont have a microwave? What should i use?
Never ate a chocolate cake before and not feel so crappy and bloated before crazy love this recipe ty!
Would I leave the cacao powder out to make a vanilla or white cake?
Great recipe! These look delicious 😋
Thanks so much!
I cant wait to make this ~ today is possible ~ THANK YOU ! You have really changed my life with your amazing videos.
So glad to hear that Sandy :) Enjoy the recipes!
Please let us know your microwave temperature

This afternoon I had cravings for chocolate and remembered this recipe... And I tried it. So delicious and guilty-free ;-)
Yay - happy you loved it Anna! :) x
I used hazelnut flour for this recipe because it was what I had on hand and it was delicious.
Wonderful! Glad it turned out well :)
Niec
Can swap Almond flour for Pecan flour?
That looks fabulous!
Any suggestions on how to make it in conventional oven versus microwave? I don't like radiating my food. Thank you
This recipe was made specifically for the microwave (and to be done in 2 minutes). I have a recipe for a Paleo Chocolate Cake on my website and Mini Molten Chocolate Cakes that are suitable for the oven. Hope one of those works for you!
Woow that looks very easy, I don't have a microwave can I bake it in oven? Thank you
Yes! You can find instructions written in the recipe notes here: downshiftology.com/recipes/chocolate-mug-cake/
i want to try it! how many Watts is at the microwave?
Is this ok to eat if you have inflammation?
Beautiful ingredients, nice recipe and microwave.
Thanks Melita! I try to keep the ingredients as clean as possible. :) x
your videos are addictive!!!!!!
Thank you!
Great video and recipe! I am in love with your channel :) Btw, what is the music you are using in this video?
Thanks so much for your kind words! The music is "Light Em Up" from Epidemic Sound. :)
Best Chocolate mug cake i have ever had im not even joking.
😁
So glad you're loving this chocolate mug cake!
Your Recipe is so amazing ! Thank you for sharing it ;D
Glad you enjoyed this Pauline 😊
You really can't beat a single serve cake! Great recipe :)
Jane x
I agree - portion control at it's best! ;) Thanks Jane!
I don't have microwave oven, but have all the ingredients, if put this in a ramekin in the oven how long would it take? and what would be the optimum temperature?
What is substitute of egg plz tell me
can you use flax egg if your vegan
So good and easy! Thanks for sharing!
Glad you enjoyed this recipe Cindy 😊
Not a big fan of microwave. What’s the temperature if you want to bake it, and how many minutes? Thanks!
Can I use butter instead of oil
Love your recipes, but, could you give us alternatives to maple syrup? I don't eat sugar, honey or anything that might spike my blood sugar.
What can I replace the egg with?
What about in Airfryer?
I tried this exactly as listed on the recipe. The consistency was not the same. It was dry and crumbly? What would you recommend for it to have more of a liquid consistency prior to cooking? Thanks
Do you know if flax egg would work in this case? I have to eliminate eggs due to sensitivity. I'm a new subscriber and love your content!
Can you put the measurements of the ingredients?
Never mind I found it
Thank you, a perfect cake for the snow storm in New York.
Glad you enjoyed it! And try to stay warm out there. Brrrr. :)
What if you don't use a microwave?
I have oven instructions written in the blog post on the recipe notes :)
her “dairy free”
(proceeds to add egg)😂😂
Eggs are not dairy. Dairy products are those derived from milk, which is from mammary glands of cows and goats. Eggs are unborn chickens.
Can you also make this Recipe if you don´t have.a microwave?
