5 Minute Chocolate Mug Cake
- 4 tablespoons whole-wheat flour
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa
- 1/4 cup egg substitute (with yolk) or 1 egg
- 3 tablespoons lowfat milk or fat free half and half
- 1 tablespoon canola oil
- 2 tablespoons fat free sour cream
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons semi sweet chocolate chips (optional)
- light vanilla bean ice cream (optional)
- sliced strawberries or other fresh fruit (optional)
- 1. In microwave-safe coffee mug, combine whole-wheat flour, sugar, and cocoa.
- 2. Pour egg substitute or egg, lowfat milk, canola oil, sour cream and vanilla into the mug with dry ingredients and mix well with fork.
- 3. Stir chocolate chips into the cake batter in mug, if desired.
- 4. Place mug in center of microwave (preferably one that has a turn table) and cook on HIGH for 3 minutes. The cake will rise about an inch or so above the top of the mug (don't worry it won't drip down the sides of the mug).
- 5. Let cake cool in mug for a few minutes then turn mug upside down over a serving bowl (the cake should slide out fairly easily).
- 6. Cut cake in half for a smaller sized serving and top with a small scoop of light vanilla bean ice cream and sliced strawberries (or other fresh fruit).
