Ingredients
  

  • 4 tbsp flour
  • 4 tbsp sugar
  • 1 tbsp good quality unsweetened cocoa (I used dark cocoa powder)
  • 2 tbsp whisked egg
  • 3 tbsp milk
  • 3 tbsp oil
  • 3 tbsp dark chocolate chips
  • ½ tsp pure vanilla extract or other flavouring

Instructions
 

  • Add all of the dry ingredients to the mug and mix. Add the egg and combine well.
  • Stir in the milk and oil. Add chocolate chips and splash of vanilla. Stir well.
  • Microwave for 3 minutes in a 1000w oven, or 4 minutes in a 700w oven*. It will start to rise over the top of the mug, but if your mug is big enough it shouldn’t spill over.
  • Take the mug out and let the cake cool a little.
  • You can eat it straight out of the mug (if time is of the essence!) or you can turn it out onto a serving plate and serve with whipped cream or ice cream and perhaps some chocolate sauce for kicks.

Notes

*Timing will depend on your microwave. I have an 850w oven and 3 minutes was perfect.
