1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 tablespoon unsweetened almond milk (or any low-carb milk)
1 tablespoon melted butter or coconut oil
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
- In a microwave-safe mug, whisk together the egg, almond flour, cocoa powder, erythritol, baking powder, almond milk, melted butter, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until smooth and well combined.
- Microwave the mug on high for 60-90 seconds, or until the cake has risen and is firm to the touch. (Start checking at 60 seconds.)
- Let the mug cake cool for a minute before digging in. Top with whipped cream or sugar-free chocolate chips for an extra treat.
Notes
For a gooey center, add a tablespoon of sugar-free chocolate chips to the batter before microwaving.
Stir in peanut butter or almond butter for a nutty twist.
Add a pinch of cinnamon or coffee granules to enhance the chocolate flavor.
Top with whipped cream, sugar-free ice cream, or berries for added flavor.
