Instructions
Prepare the Mug
Grab a microwave-safe mug. Use a mug that holds at least 8 ounces to ensure your cake doesn’t overflow while cooking.
Mix the Dry Ingredients
In the mug, add the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Stir them together with a spoon or fork until evenly mixed.
Add the Wet Ingredients
Add the milk, vegetable oil (or melted butter), and vanilla extract. Stir everything together until you have a smooth batter with no lumps.
Add Chocolate Chips (Optional)
Sprinkle a few chocolate chips or small pieces of chocolate into the batter for extra gooey texture.
Microwave
Place the mug in the microwave and cook on high for 1 minute. Keep a close eye on it to make sure the cake doesn’t overflow.
Let It Cool
Carefully remove the mug (it will be hot) and let it cool for a minute or two to firm up.
Enjoy
Your chocolate mug cake is ready. Eat it straight from the mug or top it with ice cream, whipped cream, or fresh berries.
