Instructions

    1.
    In a tall coffee mug, combine butter and chocolate. Microwave for 30 seconds, or until completely melted and smooth.
    2.
    Add the sweetener, baking powder, almond flour, a pinch of salt, and cocoa powder to the mug.
    3.
    Add the egg and vanilla extract. Mix thoroughly with a spoon until the batter is completely blended and smooth.
    4.
    Microwave for 50-60 seconds. Be careful not to overcook, as the cake can dry out quickly. The cake will puff up considerably. Top the hot chocolate cake with caramel syrup and enjoy immediately!
