Cottage Cheese Mug Cake Without Flour: Easy 2-Minute Treat

This Cottage Cheese Mug Cake Without Flour is a quick, flourless chocolate dessert made with cottage cheese, egg, cocoa powder, sweetener, and baking powder. Blend everything smooth and microwave for 90 to 120 seconds for a soft single-serving treat.

  • Total Time: 6 minutes
  • Yield: 1 mug cake 1x

Ingredients

Units Scale
1/3 cup cottage cheese1 large egg3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder3 tablespoons sugar or sugar-free substitute, such as monk fruit, or honey1/4 teaspoon baking powderOptional: A few chocolate chips or a splash of vanilla extract

Instructions

1. Put the cottage cheese and egg into a small blender or food processor. Blend until completely smooth with no curds left.

2. Add the cocoa powder, sweetener, and baking powder. Blend again until fully combined into a liquid batter.

3. Grease a microwave-safe coffee mug or small ramekin with oil or butter. Pour the batter inside.

4. Microwave on high for 90 seconds to 2 minutes until the top is set.

5. Let the mug cake rest for 1 minute before eating.

Notes

Blend the cottage cheese completely smooth to help avoid a grainy texture.

Check the mug cake after 90 seconds because microwave power varies.

Cook only until the top sets.

Let the cake rest for 1 minute before eating.

Add a few chocolate chips or a splash of vanilla extract if desired.
