This Vanilla Vegan Mug Cake is ultra plush texture with a tender crumb and is loaded with chocolate chips in each bite. It cooks in 2 minutes and is irresistible warm, dotted with gooey bits of melted chocolate.
Add all dry ingredients into a microwave safe mug, stir well with a spoon or fork, making sure to break any lumps in brown sugar.
Add all wet ingredients, mix until very smooth and lump free. Stir in 2 tablespoons vegan chocolate chips.
Cook in microwave for one minute and 45 seconds (longer might make the cake dry) for a standard coffee mug and or 1 minute and 40 seconds for a wider mug.
Remove, top with more chocolate chips ( I like to sprinkle a touch of coarse sea salt on top) and let cool for about a few seconds before serving.Tip: Microwave cakes might get a little dry if left at room temperature for a long period of time. So, enjoy it when hot!
