1 Coffee Mug
4 tablespoons flour(that's plain flour, not self-rising)
4 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons baking cocoa
1 egg
3 tablespoons milk
3 tablespoons oil
3 tablespoons chocolate chips (optional)
Nuts (optional)
Small splash of vanilla

Add dry ingredients to mug, and mix well. Add the egg and mix thoroughly. Pour in the milk and oil and mix well. Add the chocolate chips (if using) and vanilla, and mix again. Put your mug in the microwave and cook for 3 minutes on 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. EAT!
(this can serve 2 if you want to share!)

**Note: I had to cook it for 4 minutes, and we have a pretty powerful microwave, so I'd imagine depending on wattage, you may have to cook it for 4-6 minutes.

Re: 5 MINUTE CHOCOLATE MUG CAKE

  • i forgot about this, thanks! 
  • Sorry - I copied and pasted the recipe out of a word doc so the formatting is screwy - I tried to fix it, but I think I made it worse...at least you can see the recipe.
  • Loading the player...
  • And it's good too!! Confession...I make it w/o eggs and eat the batter Stick out tongue MMMMMM!
  • I tried this over the weekend and it was NOT good! All the chocolate chips sank to the bottom and made a mess and the top was so solid and dry that it couldn't be eaten! It's a great concept and would be lovely if it worked but for me, not so much!

    Thank you though, even if it wasn't that great, every now and then you just have to have chocolate so I may try it again!
