In a medium microwavable bowl, heat coconut oil and milk on High in 20 second intervals until coconut oil is melted.
Whisk in sugar, then the flour, cocoa, baking powder, salt and cayenne, whisking until smooth.
Lightly oil two 8 oz. mugs or ramekins with coconut oil. Divide batter between the 2 mugs/ramekins; place a chocolate truffle in the center. The truffle need not be submerged, since the batter will envelop it while baking.
Microwave on High for 50 seconds, until risen and firm. If the cakes are still a bit soft, return the cakes for another 10 or more seconds.
Garnish the tops with cookie crumbs or powdered sugar.
2 servings.
