I got this from my mom. She handed it to me and gave me a warning, 'You must try this but you will never be able to put it down.' Apparently, its quite addicting...
5 Minute Chocolate Mug Cake
4 tbsp flour
4 tbsp sugar
2 tbsp cocoa
1 egg
3 tbsp milk
3 tbsp oil
3 tbsp chocolate chips (optional)
a small splash of vanilla extract
1 lg coffee mug
Add dry ingredients to mug, and mix well.
Add the egg and mix thoroughly.
Pour in the milk and oil and again mix well.
Add the chocolate chips (if using) and vanilla extract, and mix again (yes. its a lot of mixing)
Put mug in the microwave and cook for 3 minutes at 1000 watts (high).
The cake will rise over the top of the mug but don't be alarmed!
Allow to cool a little and tip out onto a plate if desired or eat it out of the mug (save a dish!)
EAT! (this can serve 2 if you are feeling generous) and why is it the most dangerous cake? Because it only takes 5 minutes to bake another one...or so I'm told...I haven't dared try it yet.
