What ingredients do I need to make this easy, no-oven chocolate cake?
You are going to make an utterly soft and delicious cake, so to complement the rich chocolate flavor, you will add some coffee powder mixed with milk and cocoa powder.
You will also need some powdered or icing sugar.
You will be using three leavening agents in this recipe: baking powder, baking soda, and egg. Eggs will provide structure and volume to the cake.
You will mix the coffee powder in the milk and use a tiny bit of rock salt or Himalayan pink salt to bring out the chocolate flavor. If you don’t have any salt, that’s alright, just use table salt.

Frequently Asked Questions
How to store this easy, no-oven chocolate cake?

Can I freeze this cake?
I would not recommend doing that, as re-hating it would be a problem. I have tried it, and the result is not good. The cake becomes hard after reheating.

Yes. If you don’t have whipped cream, skip it. Dust the cake with some icing sugar or cocoa powder, and you should be good to go.

Ceramic bowls, glass microwave-safe marked bowls, clay bowls, and microwave-safe plastic bowls are all safe to use in the microwave. I don’t have the link to my bowl, but you can check this one out. It is of the same size and shape.
