Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookie Mug Cake (Ready in 60 Seconds)

There’s nothing quite like curling up with a warm dessert straight from the mug, and this vegan chocolate chip cookie mug cake delivers all the comfort of a fresh-baked cookie in just seconds. Gooey chocolate chips melt into a soft, golden cookie base that’s perfectly portioned for one, making it the ideal quick treat when you’re craving something sweet but don’t want to bake an entire batch.

Ingredients

2 Tablespoons All-Purpose Flour

1 Tablespoon Brown Sugar (or coconut sugar)

1/2 Tablespoon Neutral Oil (or melted vegan butter)

1 Tablespoon Plant Milk

1/8 tsp Vanilla Extract

Pinch of Baking Powder

Pinch of Salt

1 Tablespoon Vegan Chocolate Chips

(Optional: sprinkle of sea salt on top for extra flavor)

Sometimes you just need a cookie fix without making a whole tray, right? That’s where this quick and cozy vegan chocolate chip cookie mug cake comes in. It’s soft, gooey, and loaded with melty chocolate chips — plus it only takes 1-2 minutes start to finish!

I love making this on busy filming days when I want a sweet treat without spending a lot of time (or money). The best part? It uses pantry staples you probably already have, and it’s totally budget-friendly.

Instructions

In a microwave-safe mug, mix flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

Stir in oil, plant milk, and vanilla until smooth.

Fold in chocolate chips.

Microwave for 45–60 seconds, until set but still a little gooey in the center (don’t overcook!).

Let cool for 1 minute before eating—melted chocolate will be hot!

Budget Tips

Buying chocolate chips in bulk saves a ton compared to small bags.

Swap brown sugar for regular sugar if that’s what you have.

Use up the last bits of flour or plant milk—perfect for mug cakes since they need so little.
