Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Baking powder
- 3 tablespoons Milk (any type)
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 0.25 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoons Chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
In a standard-sized microwave-safe mug, add the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, unsweetened cocoa powder, and baking powder. Mix thoroughly to combine all the dry ingredients.
Add the milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the dry mixture. Stir until the batter is smooth and no lumps remain.
If using, fold in the chocolate chips for an extra melty chocolate experience.
Microwave the mug on high power for 60 seconds. Depending on the microwave's wattage, you may need an extra 15 seconds, but avoid overcooking as the cake will set further as it cools.
Allow the mug cake to cool for 1-2 minutes before enjoying. Serve as is or top with whipped cream, ice cream, or a drizzle of chocolate syrup.
