Ingredients
  

  • 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 4 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • A pinch of salt
  • 3 tablespoons milk
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • A drop of vanilla extract
  • A dollop of whipped cream
  • A sprinkle of chocolate chips
  • A scoop of ice cream (for a real treat!)

Instructions
 

  • Start by picking a microwave-safe mug. Make sure it's big enough to prevent spillage, but not too big; a standard coffee mug is usually perfect.
  • In your chosen mug, add the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, unsweetened cocoa powder, and a pinch of salt. Stir these dry ingredients together until they're well combined.
  • Next, add the milk, vegetable oil, and a drop of vanilla extract to your mug. Mix everything together until the batter is smooth and free of lumps. This is where the magic begins!
  • Pop your mug in the microwave and set it to cook for about 1 minute and 30 seconds to 2 minutes. Cooking times may vary, so keep an eye on your cake. It should rise and firm up.
  • Once your cake is done, carefully take it out of the microwave. Caution: it's going to be hot! Let it cool for a minute or two.
  • If you're feeling extra indulgent, add some whipped cream, chocolate chips, or a scoop of ice cream on top of your cake.
