I came home from swimming laps at the pool and I needed something. Some-thing-de-lic-ious. I'd eaten dinner hours before and I was feeling slightly hungry but mostly "snacky." Wow, it would be SO great to have a little somethin' chocolate'y, coconut'y, gooey and warm .... just like those cakes in a mug I used to make. Hmmm....
I grabbed a pastured egg, coconut flour (of course), coconut oil (naturally), some cocoa powder and sea salt (because chocolate always tastes good with a little salt).
I grabbed a mug. I cracked the egg (dogs came running for the eggshells), added the coconut flour, the coconut oil, cocoa powder and salt. Mixed. Too thick. I grabbed the coconut milk from the fridge. Yes! Perfect consistency. Into the microwave it went and voila!, I had a very happy mouth.
Cocoa Coconut Snack Cake in a Mug
1 tablespoon coconut flour
1 tablespoon coconut oil
1 tablespoon cocoa powder
1 pastured egg
1 tablespoon coconut milk
Pinch coconut palm sugar
Dash of sea salt (I turned my salt grinder two turns.)
Mix everything in a mug. Stir until there are NO lumps left. Lick spoon. Put mug into the microwave for 2:00 on Power Level 4. It will still be a little gooey in the middle. If you want it more done than that, cook it for 15 more seconds on Power Level 4. (If you want it MORE gooey in the middle, cook it for 1:30 on Power Level 4.)
And as I was enjoying my delicious little treat, my Honey came into the kitchen. "Whatcha got there?", he asked, so I made him one too.
This recipe is officially "Honey Approved."
