      I wanted something SUPER RICH so… 2T butter, 2 yolks instead of 1 whole egg, 1T Swerve plus pinch stevia, 1T coconut flour and about 10 76% chocolate chips (plus the rest of the stuff). Nuked only 45 seconds (will try only 35 next time). It was perfect! Thank you for the recipe.

      Yo so I follow a loosely keto diet simply because of allergies I have rather than to specifically loose weight- it happens to mostly be foods I can actually have. So I substituted the flour with chickpea on a whim and honey with a sprinkle of coconut sugar for the sweetener, and did two egg whites for the egg bc I can’t have the yolks and doubled the “pb” which I used soy butter for and it was amazing. Like seriously the best mug cake texture I’ve ever ended up with. It was a very nutty flavored cake with a tiny tight crumb similar to somewhere between a higher end bakery cake and angel food. Super delicious. Most mug cakes are nasty if you don’t eat them scalding hot but this one was even good cold. I did have to add come cooking time in 15 second increments, and it nearly doubled the amount I was expecting, but it was perfect.
      I followed the amount called for almond flour rather than coconut so perhaps that may be why. Regardless- so glad I found this recipe as it’s my new favorite and go-to from now on. My big kids will love it too and they’re picky.
      Oh! It also didn’t stick horribly like some do, either. When I melted the butter, I added a bit extra and swished it all along the inside of the cup.

      Chocolate one was so good! I didn’t have enough butter so I substituted 1/2 the quantity of butter with coconut oil and cooked it in the microwave (opted to top the mug cake with a naughty amount of sugarfree choc chips). It was super moist and yummy!

      So good and curbed my sugar craving so quickly! I followed the recipe as directed using coconut butter, coconut flour, Lakanto, but added a few bits of pecans to give it a “butter pecan” flavor…wow! It was so filling and delicious! Thank you so much for this delicious recipe!

      Did a dry run on the chocolate recipe with one in the microwave and one in the oven. Oven definitely more moist. Microwave version really puffed up, almost overflowing the ramekin, but was dry after the minimum cook time suggested. The oven one was less puffed up but gave a better presentation and moister even after using the maximum cooking time suggested. Also, I will try and see if adding a little extra sweetener (Truvia) will help. It was not very sweet tasting for a dessert. Hoping this doesn’t make it drier for my dinner guests tomorrow night.

      This was amazing. I have been searching for a good Keto version of a vanilla birthday cake and this hits the spot. Finally my search is over. It’s fluffy, not eggy, or wet and had a great vanilla flavor. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is because I made a few adaptions. Instead of butter, I used Mayo, because That’s what I had available. I used almond flour, but replaced one of the recommended Three TBSs with vanilla protein powder, because it seems to add more fluff and rise to mug cakes. I only used 1 TBS sweetener, because of the sweetness in the protein powder. Then I added a pinch of salt and a tiny dab of bake batter extract with the vanilla. I also had to microwave for 30 extra seconds. This was so good. Thanks for sharing such a delicious recipe. I am excited to try the other two versions.

      I made the chocolate recipe, followed exactly. It came out well. Quite spring and a little eggy. Satisfied the craving for a quick dessert. I will reduce the egg to half next time to see if it is denser that way.

      I made the chocolate mug cake tonight using coconut flour. It was amazing! So amazing that I let my kids try it and I got up to put a load of laundry in the dryer. When I returned my mug cake had vanished. They’re response was they needed a full taste test! Needless to say, I’m glad it was easy to make another mug.

      So I made the chocolate one and it was great. I plugged in the recipe into my my fitness app the carbs amount to 20g. And that’s with only 1 tbsp of swerve. The numbers you listed for the carbs was 7 carbs? Is that supposed to be net carbs or regular carbs?

          So I’m only 3 weeks into keto so I’m definitely not experienced, on the package of swerve it says 1 tsp has 4 carbs. I really enjoyed this cake is why I’m asking. When I plug in all the ingredients in to make a recipe on my fitness app the total came out with 20 grabs and I was shocked. I double checked the Ingredients and the swerve was what was high. So I think I’m missing somthing.

        • Sama says

          March 09, 2021 at 8:57 pm

          Hey Samantha! The carbs in swerve are erythritol which is a sugar alcohol that our body doesn’t use, so you can subtract that from total carbs and so your net carbs should be lower. Hope that helps. Happy Keto-ing!

      • Jane says

        March 12, 2021 at 7:47 am

        I am sure it was net carbs and your swerve shouldn’t be any carbs, if it is, you should change your keto sweetener IMO..I use pyure and it’s zero carbs. The carbs here are likely the flour, even baking powder has carbs.

      First off let me start by saying that my husband hates cake (would rather eat pie) — were new to keto and were both craving something sweet tonight .. so I made myself a chocolate cake and my husband the peanut butter cake. He devoured it and so did I! Both were AMAZING and DELICIOUS and we are excited to be able to indulge every now and then and not feel super guilty about it!

      One of my hubby’s favorites of all time! So easy to make too. I top it with a square of 90% chocolate, peanut butter and a sprinkle of cacao nibs. He loves it!

      I have made a TON of different keto mug cakes – this one is by far the ABSOLUTE BEST!!! I made a double batch in a larger dish, planning on saving it, and my kids devoured it after their tiny test bites! Yum!!!

      Just amazing! I put a naughty twist on this and made cuts in the sponge, then poured a tiny bit of Bailey’s Almande and put a few raspberries and a dash of single cream as I saved up my macros! Yum yum yum. Thank you Jennifer

      Love this recipe. I’ve also added lemon and salted caramel flavouring to them. Haven’t had a bad one yet. So quick and easy for a sweet fix

      Have you tried a full cake version of the chocolate peanut butter? The mug is amazing, I want to make a larger cake, but a little lost on how to convert.

      I added cream cheese. 2 tbsp cream cheese, heat for 20 seconds in the microwave, mix in 1/2 tsp Truvia (sweetener). Once mug cake is fully blended, drop by spoonful into batter, then swirl one time. Microwave for 1 min, 20 seconds.

      Great recipe.
      Tried it with maple syrup instead of sweetener
      Worked a treat
      I’m paleo so I’ve swapped all sweetners for coconut sugar and maple syrup.
      I only needed 1tb as I don’t like sweet things anymore.
      Don’t even eat chocolate chocolate anymore either.
      Thank you for this awesome yummy recipe.
      I accidently added 1tb of tahini in the chocolate mug cake recipe and tasted really good too haha

      WoW! Love the chocolate mug cake and it was so easy to make. I added a tablespoon of Lily no sugar dark chocolate chips and I’m eating it now. Matter of fact, I’m going back to it…

        One of the best mug cake recipes I’ve had!
        I’m usually keto but currently pregnant, but I still love baking with stevia.
        I made the peanut butter version, and added in some banana
        Super moist! Me ( and baby) are fans !

      Good for a quick fix! Next time I’ll use monkfruit instead of Splenda and microwave for 55 seconds as mine was a bit dry, as you warned. Nice dessert, or breakfast!

      Wow – this is delicious. I used coconut flour; was out of baking powder, so subbed a tsp of “2 Good” Yogurt, and added both the chocolate and sugar-free crunchy peanut butter. Topped with a few of the sugar-free chocolate chips. Awesome yumminess – thanks for the recipe!!

      I made this and the batter looked VERY thick… I added a tablespoon of almond milk… it tasted okay but not sure why it seemed rather dense. I used it as a trifle cake, layered with HWC and fresh raspberries, so it was still quite tasty. Served in stemmed wine glasses for effect.

      Any idea why it came out so dense? I made the vanilla version.
