Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 4 tablespoons sugar
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/8 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 3 tablespoons milk
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Optional: chocolate chips, whipped cream, or a scoop of ice cream for topping
Instructions
- Mix Dry Ingredients
- In a microwave-safe mug, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
- Add Wet Ingredients
- Add the milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Stir until everything is well combined and there are no lumps.
- Optional: Add Chocolate Chips
- If you’d like, stir in a few chocolate chips for extra gooeyness.
- Microwave the Cake
- Microwave the mug on high for 1 minute and 30 seconds (microwave times may vary). The cake should rise and look set, but still slightly moist in the center.
- Cool and Serve
- Let the mug cake cool for a minute or so before serving. You can top it with whipped cream, a scoop of ice cream, or even a few extra chocolate chips.
Tips
- Customize: You can add a dash of cinnamon, peanut butter, or marshmallows for a twist!
- For a lighter cake: Reduce the oil to 1 tablespoon or use applesauce as a substitute.
In just a few minutes, you’ll have a warm, chocolaty dessert that’s perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth! 🍫✨
