Microwave Chocolate Mug Cake Late Night Snack

Microwave Chocolate Mug Cake

Ingredients:

• 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 4 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 3 tablespoons milk
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil or melted butter
• 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 tablespoon chocolate chips (optional)

Instructions:

1. In a microwave-safe mug, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
2. Add the milk, vegetable oil or melted butter, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients in the mug. Stir until the batter is smooth and no lumps remain.
3. If desired, sprinkle chocolate chips on top of the batter.
4. Microwave the mug cake on high for 1 to 2 minutes, or until the cake has risen and the top is set. Microwave times may vary depending on the wattage of your microwave, so start with 1 minute and check for doneness.
5. Let the mug cake cool for a minute or two before enjoying straight from the mug or transferring it to a plate. Be careful, as the mug will be hot!

Feel free to customize your mug cake by adding other mix-ins like nuts, caramel, or marshmallows. Enjoy your delicious late-night treat!
