How to make a chocolate mug cake in the microwave

  1. In a container we add the tablespoons of flour. It is important that they are level tablespoons to avoid adding too much flour. Flour with yeast incorporated can also be used, this way we avoid adding chemical yeast.
  2. Next we add the white sugar, yeast and cocoa powder. We mix with a fork until we obtain a more or less homogeneous dough.
  3. In a separate container we put the egg and beat it vigorously. It is important that it is very foamy since the more air, the fluffier the chocolate cake will be.
  4. We add the egg with the rest of the ingredients and mix everything again.
  5. At this point, optionally, we can add chocolate chips which will remain discarded inside the cake. Highly recommend!
  6. Once we have all the ingredients mixed, we add the mixture to a cup. It is important that it is not completely full. It is advisable to leave 3 fingers since the cake will rise during cooking.
  7. The time it takes to cook the cake is estimated and depends on each microwave. We have had it for 2 minutes at maximum power.
  8. It is important to place the cup on the edge of the microwave turntable. It is also recommended to turn the cup from time to time to achieve homogeneous cooking.
  9. Once done, we take it out and sprinkle a little powdered sugar. If we don't have it, we can do it by grinding a little white sugar with the mixer.
  10. All we have to do is enjoy this exquisite microwave chocolate cake!

I started cosmorecipes in 2020 during the time we were cooped up at home. Having so much free time I spent a lot of time in the kitchen trying different dishes. So I decided to mix cooking with my other great passion: web programming. That's why I decided to open this blog where I post the different recipes that I'm cooking.
