Ingredients:
- 4 tablespoons of all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons of sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon of baking powder
- 3 tablespoons of milk
- 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil
- 1/4 teaspoon of vanilla extract (optional)
- A pinch of salt
Instructions:
- Start by grabbing a large microwave-safe mug. In the mug, combine the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Stir the dry ingredients well with a fork until evenly mixed.
- Pour in the milk and vegetable oil, then mix thoroughly until the batter is smooth and well-blended. If you’re using vanilla extract, add it now.
- Place the mug in the microwave and cook on high for 1 minute to 1 minute and 30 seconds, depending on your microwave’s power. As the cake cooks, watch it closely to ensure it doesn’t overflow.
- Once done, allow the mug cake to sit for a minute to cool slightly. This will help it firm up and become easier to enjoy.
- If desired, you can add whipped cream, ice cream, or a drizzle of chocolate syrup for extra indulgence.
