3 minute microwave chocolate cake in a mug

First, a disclaimer: this is not as good as the regular oven baked chocolate cake (you can find my favorite chocolate cake recipes here and here) BUT when you have a sudden craving for cake and no time to bake it, it works just fine. It's also a cute way to serve cake to unexpected guests in a pinch, for example.

  • one large mug or bowl, microwave safe
  • 1 egg
  • 4 tablespoons of flour

  • 4 table spoons of milk
  • 1 tablespoon of melted butter or vegetable oil
  • 1/4 of a teaspoon of baking powder 
  • 1/4 of a teaspoon of powdered cinnamon (optional)

Place all ingredients in the mug (no particular order is necessary).

Microwave for 3 minutes at 600 watts (medium to high power). 

Remove carefully from the microwave, as the mug can be very hot.

Let the cake cool for a bit and eat it while still slightly warm.
