Expresso Cake in a Mug
(I use ramekins)

1 tsp instant coffee granules
1 tsp mini semi sweet chocolate chips
3 tbs chocolate cake mix (my fave is Betty Crocker triple chocolate)
1 tbs fat-free sour cream
1 tbs liquid egg substitute
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
1/8 tsp baking powder
1 no cal sweetener packet (I use stevia)
dash of salt

Place coffee and chips in microwave safe mug sprayed with non stick spray. Add other ingredients. Mix well. Microwave for 1 minute 45 seconds (that's too long in my microwave...I usually go for a minute and 20 seconds) Cool slightly and enjoy! 147 calories as per HG.

Sometimes I top with canned lite pie cherries and a dollop of light cool whip. NOM!

    I have been an HG fan for I don't know how long. I would always post the recipes that the HG newsletter would send me and grab the latest HG cookbook.

    Thanks for sharing..... bumping for later -when I get all the ingredients from the grocery store.

    Wondering if a packet of Splenda will work okay? I tried Stevia before and didn't care for it.

    I used a packet of Splenda and it worked great! I really liked it.

    I also only put it in the microwave for 1 minute 20 seconds.

    My 4 and 9 year old just had this without the coffee and they loved it! I added a few more chocolate chips on top and some whipped toppping and they gobbled it up.
