5 Minute Mug Cake

I'm not sure if you have seen this recipe before, but I received the following recipe in an e-mail yesterday. It says it is the most dangerous cake in the world?
Because now we are all only 5 minutes away from chocolate cake at any time of the day or night. So, I couldn't resist trying it. Besides, chocolate cake is my favorite dessert. I did make some modifications to the recipe.



5 MINUTE CHOCOLATE MUG CAKE
4 tablespoons flour
4 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons cocoa I would use 1 1/2 tablespoons
1 egg
3 tablespoons milk
3 tablespoons oil
3 tablespoons chocolate chips
A small pinch of salt
A small splash of vanilla extract
1 large coffee mug extra large if you have one / or a bowl would work, too

Add dry ingredients to mug, and mix well.

Add the egg and mix thoroughly. A fork works great for mixing.
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. I think my microwave is 1200 watts, so my first one was a little dry.
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. Mine broke in half. I'm not much of an ice cream person (I know how strange is that?), but I'm sure if you like ice cream, this would be great with it.
Then EAT! (This can serve 2). It was actually pretty yummy, and defininately helped with the chocolate cake craving.
