Mini Chocolate Cake (Super Quick!)

This Mini Chocolate Cake (Super Quick!) is perfect for a quick chocolate fix! If a mega chocolate fix is necessary you can top this with half a batch of my Emergency Fudge recipe used as a ganache (as pictured) or drizzle it with my Magic Shell Chocolate Sauce.

Ingredients

coconut flour 1½ tbsp
cacao powder (*see note) 1 tbsp
coconut sugar (*see notes) 3 tbsp
coconut milk 2 tbsp
coconut oil 1 tbsp
egg 1
baking soda ⅛ tsp
sea salt tiny pinch

Directions:

  1. Mix ingredients together very, very well in a small bowl or mug.
  2. For a 2-layer cake: grease two 4-inch wide ramekins with coconut oil or butter.
  3. Pour batter into two 4-inch wide ramekins to make a 2-layered cake. Or simply cook it in a large mug.
  4. Microwave cake for 90 seconds. You may need to increase additional 30 seconds if cooked in a mug, and/or if you used a liquid sweetener.
  5. Let the cake cool for 10 minutes. Then gently remove each layer of cake by turning each ramekin upside down. Slide in a butter knife to help release them, if necessary.
  6. Optional: use a fruit-sweetened sour cherry jam as the center icing and/or use my Emergency Fudge for the top layer of chocolate icing.
  7. I promised this Mini Chocolate Cake would be (Super Quick!)

Recipe and Dietary Notes:

  • For a real chocolate-cake experience, I use the full 3 Tablespoons of coconut sugar. If you want to use a liquid sweetener instead, 2 Tablespoons of maple syrup will work.
  • GAPS: cocoa powder is allowed on Full GAPS after symptoms are resolved.
