How to Make Chocolate Mug Cake without Egg
You will notice that egg isn’t listed in the ingredients here. That is great news for those with an egg allergy. But there is a bigger reason for it than that. The main function of eggs in baked goods is that they help provide structure and stability. So that cake or cookie that you put in the oven rises and it stays risen because of the eggs. You will see here that the cake is a little sunken in. That is the result of no egg. That being said, I still think egg is not necessary. The cake is in a mug, so it doesn’t really need structure. Additionally, we are using small fractions of ingredients and it is cumbersome to break up a whole egg into fourths. You will find that even without the egg, you are left with a moist and delicious cake that hits the chocolate craving spot.
