The Ultimate Fast Chocolate Fix aka: The BETTER 5 Minute Chocolate Cake in a Mug
Ingredients: 1 tbsp all purpose flour (I actually used King Arthur's White Whole Wheat because it's what I had) 3 tbsp sugar 4 tbsp cocoa powder pinch of salt 1 egg 3 tbsp milk 2 tbsp oil (I used plain vegetable oil but coconut oil would be better, I just didn't have it) 1 tbsp brandy (or other liquor, fruit juice or even just more milk) 1 tsp vanilla extract
Directions: 1. Mix flour, sugar, cocoa and salt in a large mug. 2. Add all other ingredients. 3. Cook in microwave for 2 1/2 - 3 minutes. (My microwave cooks hot/fast so I only needed 2 1/2 but you might need the full 3 minutes. You may need to play with this.) 4. Let sit in microwave for 1 minute. 5. Take out, put onto plate and enjoy!
* This cake is a lot like what you would expect out of a flourless chocolate cake. It is very rich and satisfying and you *might* need to share this with someone else. Then again, maybe you won't want to.
