How to Make this Recipe
This recipe is easy to make in a few simple steps. Grab a large coffee mug and spray it with cooking spray (I prefer coconut oil spray).
From there add all of the ingredients (except for one half of the chocolate chips) into the mug. Mix the ingredients together until they are smooth and resemble brownie batter.
Sprinkle the remaining chocolate chips on top and microwave for 60-90 seconds, depending on your desired level of gooey-ness.
Topping this vegan mug cake with flaky sea salt is an absolute must!
