Five-Minute Grain-free Chocolate Cake for One (or Two)

Five Minute Grain-free Chocolate Cake

1 tablespoon coconut flour

2 tablespoons cocoa powder 

4 tablespoons coconut sugar (or sweeten to taste with preferred sweetener)

1/4 teaspoon baking powder

Pinch of salt

Mix dry ingredients well in a microwave bowl or mug. Then add:

1 tablespoon oil (can use melted butter but it makes the cake tougher. Can also sub applesauce but makes it rubbery)

3 tablespoons full-fat milk (if using dairy substitute, may need more oil. Coconut milk gives best results)

1 egg

Splash of vanilla

Mix well and microwave for 3 minutes. 

While baking, put in a small saucepan:

1/4 cup chocolate chips (can use gluten-free or low carb but may not melt as smoothly)

2-3 tablespoons heavy cream or coconut milk

If needed add up to 1 tablespoon oil to create smoother texture. 

Melt over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, until smooth and glossy. May add flavorings now if desired. 

Tip (and scoop) cake onto plate, pour hot fudge chocolate sauce over the cake, garnish as desired.
