Tips & Tricks
Use mini chocolate chips for better melt and distribution.
Don’t overcook – microwaves vary, so check early for a soft, moist cake.
Want it less sweet? Try using just 2 tablespoons of sugar if you prefer a milder flavor.
For extra indulgence, top with a scoop of ice cream, a drizzle of chocolate syrup, or a sprinkle of sea salt.
Make sure your baking powder is fresh for a good rise and fluffy texture.
