Reviews
I felt sad so I made this It was really good, it didn’t make me less sad but I guess chocolate gives sad a nice flavor. 10/10 would gobble again
I finally made this as a test for a one-week June vacation with my grandkids. This is at the top of my desserts list to involve my grandkids in the kitchen. It turned out perfect and the directions are flawless. I thought it was a great blend of moist cake texture (90%) and pudding (10%). This recipe will remain handy in my everyday kitchen and I didn’t even have to run to the store–already had all ingredients in my kitchen.
As much as I love mug cakes this one did not turn out as I hoped. It was really thick and too chocolaty. I will try again without the chocolate chips and probably some more milk
I have made this at least 3 times. It’s a no fail recipe. This time I added peanut butter powder and substituted some of the milk with almond milk. Still delicious. Thanks for this recipe!
I fixed this for my mom and she liked it but thought that it was too sweet and a lot of chocolate. I think it’s a good recipe to have in your back pocket.
Decent cake. I would eat it again if I was starving, it was gooey and I had to cook it 30 seconds longer than the recipe said. With some tweeks and fixes this could really be a great recipe!
It was amazing and I definitely recommend it was quick and easy I love it
This was perfect. I don’t know what y’all are doing wrong(maybe not enough baking powder)but I kinda like the soft and gooey texture. As someone who had a mug cake making phase, this was amazing. Recommend.
Awful – gummy and overly chocolate. Cooked 3 mins longer than recipe and it never turned into cake.
Really good! I followed the recipe but replaced the chocolate chips with butterscotch chips.
