Chocolate Chip Mug Cake

I had gastric bypass 7 years ago and love 
reinventing recipes into something I can eat so I don't get sick. I lost 170 Pounds... kept off 130..  As any bypass patient knows when we consume too much sugar we get deathly sick. So I will remake desserts I would make before bypass.. If you have a favorite dessert that you used to make and want it healthier.. message me so I can help tweak it and it might even end up on the blog!
