Low Fat Hot Chocolate Cake Mugs
- 1-1/4 cup All-purpose Flour
- 2 cups Sugar, Divided
- 1/2 teaspoons Baking Soda
- 1/2 teaspoons Baking Powder
- 1/2 cups Dark Chocolate Cocoa Powder
- 1/4 cups Cornstarch
- 1/2 teaspoons Salt
- 4 whole Egg Whites
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 1/4 cups Regular Temperature Water
- 1 cup Boiling Water
- 1 cup Frosting Of Choice
- 6 whole Peppermint Candies, Crushed
- Preheat oven to 350 F. Grease 3 medium sized oven safe glass mugs (or jars) with cooking spray. Set aside.
- Sift flour, one cup of sugar, baking soda, baking powder, cocoa powder, corn starch and salt together in a medium bowl. Set aside.
- In another bowl, whisk eggs, vanilla, 1/4 cup of regular temperature water and the remaining 1 cup of sugar. Stir this into the dry ingredients and mix until fully combined.
- Add the boiling water into the batter, stirring until it's all mixed in. (Batter will be thin).
- Pour batter into the prepared mugs/jars, filling each about 2/3-3/4 full. (I did 2/3 and it came out perfect). Be careful not to fill them all the way or the batter will overflow in the oven.
- Place jars into the oven and bake for about 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick that is inserted into the cake comes out dry. Let cakes cool completely before frosting.
- Once cooled, frost with low fat cream cheese frosting. Sprinkle with peppermint candy and enjoy!
