The chocolate chip mug cake recipe uses simple-to-find ingredients and couldn&#8217;t be easier to make. The ingredients are mixed in a coffee mug and cooked for less than three minutes. Once the microwave dings, it&#8217;s time to grab your spoon and dig in.

You can leave it out to make an egg-free mug cake.<\/p>\n<h3>How do you keep a mug cake from overbaking?<\/h3>\n<p>The key to making the perfect mug cake with chocolate chips is to check for doneness while the cake is in the microwave. To play it safe, cook the mug cake on high for two minutes, and then check to see if a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Add increments of time until it&#8217;s completely done.<\/p>\n<h3>Can you eat mug cakes cold?<\/h3>\n<p>Mug cakes are a shortcut dessert and a great alternative to a regular cake, but they won&#8217;t hold their texture as well as an actual cake. Mug cakes should be eaten immediately after they are cooked for the best taste and texture. The texture can become rubbery if a mug cake is placed in the fridge.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When you want dessert in a flash, reach for this chocolate chip mug cake recipe.
