5 MINUTE Chocolate Mug Cake / Cup Cake made in Microwave

So you’re craving chocolate cake! You cant go and bake a cake just for a slice – not all the time. And you want it NOW. Who you gonna call? I mean  Whatcha gonna do? The  5 minute chocolate MUG cake is the way to go. I like to make it in these smaller cup cake sized silicone moulds. So you can have 2 or 3 smaller cup cakes. Not bad.. Of course the Microwave result differs from the conventional oven. However, it does do that Chocolate Craving perfect justice. A special quick ‘n’ simple treat!

Ingredients:

• 4 Tbsp plain flour (or cake flour)
• 3 – 4 Tbsp sugar ( as desired)
• 2 Tbsp quality dark cocoa powder
• 3 Tbsp full cream milk or buttermilk
• 3 Tbsp vegetable oil
• ¼ tsp vanilla extract
• 1 egg at room temperature

Method:

• To a bowl, add the dry ingredients ( flour, sugar and cocoa powder) and mix well.
• Add the egg and mix in.
• Also add the wet ingredients (milk and oil).
• Whisk together till smooth. The batter will be runny.
• Pour into 1 large Coffee Mug OR 2-3 small microwave safe cups. (I use these cute silicone cup cake moulds)
• Place in the Microwave. Microwave on HIGH for about 2-3 minutes for a Coffee mug OR 1 minute for small cups.
