Easy Eggless Chocolate Mug Cake

1 serving

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup Plain flour
  • 2 tbsp Cocoa powder
  • 1/4 tsp Baking powder
  • 2 tbsp Sugar - (you can add 1 tbsp. more if you like it a bit sweeter)
  • 1/8 tsp Salt
  • 1/4 cup+ 1 tbsp Milk
  • 2 tbsp Oil (I used sunflower)
  • 1 tbsp Hazelnut chocolate spread Nutella / Peanut Butter ( (optional))

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a medium bowl, whisk together dry ingredients.

  2. 2

    Whisk in the milk and vegetable oil until all ingredients are combined and batter has no clumps.

  3. 3

    Pour batter into a microwave-safe mug. I used a mug which is approx 1 1/4 cups. You want enough head space for the cake to rise without pouring over.

  4. 4

    Add 1 tbsp. of hazelnut chocolate spread (Nutella) / Peanut Butter in the middle of the batter. Just drop it in the middle, no need to push it down and sink it in the batter.

  5. 5

    Place a paper towel into the microwave and set the mug on top (this is to catch any batter if your mug cake overflows).

  6. 6

    Microwave mug cake for 70 seconds on high (PLEASE READ NOTES CAREFULLY BELOW)

  7. 7

    Carefully remove from microwave and enjoy!
