Instructions
Combine dry ingredients in your mug or a small mixing bowl (6 tablespoon all-purpose flour, 3 tablespoon chocolate protein powder, ½ teaspoon baking powder, ¼ teaspoon salt, and 2 tablespoon sugar). Mix to distribute the dry ingredients evenly.
Add the liquid ingredients (6 tablespoon milk or water, 2 tablespoon coconut oil, and ½ teaspoon vanilla extract) and stir until combined. Transfer into a mug if needed.
Microwave on high power for 1 ½-2 minutes, adding short 15-30 second intervals of cooking time if needed. The mug cake should be nice and fluffy and spring back to the touch.
Allow the mug cake to set in the microwave for 1 minute after cooking, then remove and serve while warm. Allow your microwave mug cake to cool completely if you'd like to remove the cake from the mug and serve. Top with whipped cream, chocolate sauce drizzle, or with ice cream if desired.
