Tips for that perfect chocolate mug cake
- Mix dry and wet ingredients separately before combining for smoother mixture.
- Sweetener can be used instead of sugar.
- To make egg-free version, replace 1 Tablespoon mayonnaise with 1 Tablespoon vegetable oil + 1 Tablespoon apple sauce.
- Avoid overcooking cake. This will make the dessert dry and crumbly. If the cake needs to be cooked further after 1 minute and 30 seconds, continue cooking in the microwave for an additional 15 seconds.
And voilà! Enjoy!
