Process
Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results
- In a 10 or 12 ounce microwave safe ceramic mug or bowl, combine almond flour, cocoa powder, coconut flour, coconut sugar, baking powder and sea salt. Stir to combine thoroughly.
- In a small separate bowl, whisk together egg yolk, melted butter or oil, vanilla and nut milk or coffee. Add wet ingredients to the mug and stir carefully to combine. Stir in chocolate chips.
- Microwave on high 60 seconds. DO NOT overcook! Allow approximately 2 minutes to cool before enjoying. If you want an even more pudding-like cake, you can check at 45 seconds. I don't suggest reheating leftovers, as it will dry them out.
Notes
Dutch processed cocoa is more mellow in flavor with a darker color. Regular cocoa will have more acidity. It definitely makes a difference in the flavor, and I think the darker color from dutch cocoa is more attractive.
