5 MINUTE CHOCOLATE MUG CAKE

In the event you did not give up chocolate for Lent….

Ok….I know I should not be promoting this but every now and then you just need chocolate cake! Enjoy!



The most dangerous cake recipe in the world –

5 Minute Chocolate Mug...

5 MINUTE CHOCOLATE MUG CAKE
4 tablespoons flour
4 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons cocoa
1 egg
3 tablespoons milk
3 tablespoons oil
3 tablespoons chocolate chips (optional)
A small splash of vanilla extract
1 large coffee mug

Add dry ingredients to mug, and mix well. Add the egg and mix thoroughly.
Pour in the milk and oil and mix well.
Add the chocolate chips (if using) and vanilla extract, and mix again.
Put your mug in the microwave and cook for 3 minutes at 1000 watts.
The cake will rise over the top of the mug, but don't be alarmed!
Allow to cool a little, and tip out onto a plate if desired.
EAT! (this can serve 2 if you want to feel slightly more virtuous).

And why is this the most dangerous cake recipe in the world ?
Because now we are all only 5 minutes away from chocolate cake at any time of the day or night!

A relative gave me that recipe and a tall mug for Christmas this year. I hadn't gotten around to trying it until just now. Thanks a heck of a lot. My waste line really needed cake at midnight!

Since the bottom of my cake (the top when you dump it) had a "grand canyon" looking effect, I scooped out a whole with a ball scoop and added a scoop of ice cream. I'm thinking a hot ganoush would score better in the cavity next time.

Thanks again,

I had to try this one out. It was tasty. I didnt have any chocolate chips, I think it would be better with them.
