Stop right now. Stop thinking I’m a genius. This idea was not mine. I altered it and made it to what I think is better, and you know I’m always right. So I guess you can still think of me as a genius. And worship me. Wow, that was a bold statement. I’m kidding about that. We all know I’m just a single female with crazy hormones who needs a chocolate fix regularly. Thank god for google which led me to Paleo Perfectly who answered my prayers for an easy, delicious chocolate cake on a Sunday afternoon, hungover, while alone at my house.
Let’s talk about girl things. If you didn’t know by now, I’m a female….a super single female to be exact. I make that clear in about….every blog post. But here’s my issue. I dress in spandex EVERY DAY. And I wear a headband EVERY DAY. It’s my job. I coach then I workout. Hard life. But I tend to lose my femininity. So what did I do this week?! I got my hair did. Oh yes I did! My amazing friend Baylee from Rebel Salon did a fantastic job, adding multiple colors and layers. I know you all care so much about this and all, but I had to tell you.
So you know what I did with my new hair-do? I styled it, put on a dress that becomes shorter with every step, AND added a pair of boots to the mix. I proceeded to add strong drinks, drinks meaning shots, and found my way to the dancefloor at Blake Street Tavern. The whole plan of this night was to look cute enough to get a number, hopefully by a sober male who loves CrossFit, is hilarious, and loves paleo baked goods. Let’s be realistic, that failed. I was flailing across the dancefloor with all couples. I looked cool, real cool.
To sum up this night, I don’t like drinking. The cleaner I eat, the less I drink, the more my body hates when I do mean things to it. So to recover from poisoning my body, I made paleo cake in a mug, watched ‘Chopped’ on my computer, and curled up in my bed trying not to vomit. Thank goodness for being single. When you’re single, you can make yourself paleo cake in a mug, on a Sunday afternoon, and no one can tell you any different. You can sport headbands, spandex, and an uncomfortable odor that no one in the room will talk about, and that’s cool! And you can flail across the dancefloor, never getting hit on, and that’s perfect. Being single is so fantastic.

I had a chocolate craving and wanted something quick and easy that I could make without going to the store so I tried this, it was so amazing, hit the spot, can’t believe how easy it was and it was so filling I almost couldn’t finish it but I had to cause it’s so good! I will definitely share with all my friends!
I too had a MAJOR chocolate craving and almost broke down and ate something I shouldn’t have. Then I thought “Juli’s gotta have something quick and easy to whip up” and there is was…heaven in a mug!!! Totally satisfying and the easiest thing ever to make.
Just made this because why not! Used coconut oil instead of walnut and used a food processor to make some of my own almond meal and it was BRILLIANT! Shared it with my roommate (we’re both food-lovers) and she was so surprised that it only took 5 minutes! Needless to say, we’ll be making this again…probably often!
Purely & utterly awesome! I subbed maple syrup for the honey. For those without a microwave…350 degrees for about 15 minutes. Came out amazing. thanks!
Thanks so much, used coconut oil instead of walnut, it tasted amazing!
Oh man. You just saved me from the big angry PMS monster. THANK YOU.
We failed at this last night. Too dry!!! Tonight we measured EXACTLY with the flour and added 1 container of baby food prunes. S u c c e s s!!!!! Wonderful and easy! Thanks for this!
WOW. Seriously, wow.
Hey! I was wondering does anyone know if you Can you sub the oil for applesauce?
If I don’t have walnut oil what can I use? I have coconut oil and EVOO …. Yay for chocolate!!!
i would use coconut oil for the flavor, evoo might be too strong
