Microwave Crazy Wacky Cake In Mug Recipe

I have never made a cake in a mug in the microwave before and wasn’t sure if it could be done with the Crazy Cake recipe. I have seen tons of recipes for single serving microwave mug cakes and wanted to give it a try. I did a quick Google search for mug cakes and actually came across a Microwave Vegan Wacky Cake.  After a few adjustments and attempts, I have an awesome go-to recipe for a single serving Crazy Cake that takes just minutes to make – super moist, absolutely delicious chocolate cake! The best part, everyone in my family can enjoy it because it’s egg-free.

• 5 Tablespoons flour (all-purpose)
• 4 1/2 Tablespoon sugar
• 2 teaspoons cocoa (unsweetened)
• 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
• pinch of salt

Wet Ingredients

• 1/2 teaspoon white vinegar (or apple cider vinegar)
• 1/4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 2 teaspoons vegetable oil (or canola oil)
• 4 1/2 Tablespoons water

Directions 

• Each microwave cooks differently, adjust time accordingly! One person made the cake in 1 minute 40 seconds, and another in 1 minute 20 seconds. 
• Make sure your baking soda is fresh, vinegar too, they are what make the cake rise. 

• If you want a neater mug cake, mix the cake batter in a small bowl, then pour the batter in the mug.

• You can add mini chocolate chips to the batter for a super rich chocolate cake…or do what I did, throw some on top after you make it, while it’s still warm!  Mmm, mmm good!
