Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons Cocoa powder (unsweetened)
- 0.25 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.125 teaspoon Salt
- 3 tablespoons Milk
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 0.25 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
In a standard-sized microwave-safe coffee mug, combine the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
Using a fork or small whisk, mix the dry ingredients thoroughly until there are no lumps.
Add the milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the mug.
Stir until the batter is smooth and fully combined, making sure to scrape the bottom and edges of the mug.
If desired, stir in the chocolate chips for extra gooeyness.
Microwave the mug on high for 60-70 seconds, depending on the power of your microwave. The cake should be set and spring back slightly when touched, but be careful not to overcook, as it can become rubbery.
Remove the mug from the microwave using a potholder or kitchen towel, as it will be hot.
Let the cake cool for 1-2 minutes before enjoying, either straight from the mug or tipped out onto a plate.
