In a microwave-safe mug or bowl, combine all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Mix well with a fork or small whisk to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.
Add the milk, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and water to the dry ingredients. Mix until a smooth batter forms, ensuring there are no lumps.
Wipe the rim of the mug or bowl to remove any batter drips, as they may burn during cooking.
Place the mug or bowl in the microwave and cook on high power for 1 minute and 30 seconds to 2 minutes, depending on the power of your microwave. Start checking at the 1 minute and 30-second mark. The cake is done when the top looks set and slightly moist. Avoid overcooking to prevent the cake from drying out.
Carefully remove the mug or bowl from the microwave (it will be hot). Let the cake cool for 1-2 minutes before serving.
Garnish with whipped cream, chocolate chips, powdered sugar, or a drizzle of chocolate syrup, if desired. Serve warm and enjoy!
