I really liked this recipe partly because it's just the right amount for 1 or 2 people. I made this as posted, however, I used 1 whole egg instead of 2 whites. I think next time I would add some chocolate chips or make a chocolate sauce to drizzle over it. It's definitely low sodium which is okay, however, my taste buds knew that something was missing. Thank you for contributing to my collection of recipes. Sincerely, Sherry Belle

    Pretty good for being so light. Made following the recipe + added 2 Tbsp caramel chips. The caramel all sank to the bottom, but it was good regardless. Used a gluten-free flour mix and egg white substitute as well.

    This is a pretty good cake, even taking into account that it's sugar free! Mine cooked way over the top of the mug. It had a nice rich taste and a good texture. Thanks for posting this diabetic-friendly recipe! Made for Diabetic Awareness Month November 2008
