Sure! Here’s a quick and easy 1-minute microwave mug cake recipe:
Ingredients:
- 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 4 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- Pinch of salt
- 3 tablespoons milk
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil (or melted butter)
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions:
- Combine Dry Ingredients:
- In a microwave-safe mug, mix together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
- Add Wet Ingredients:
- Add the milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the mug. Stir until the mixture is smooth and there are no lumps.
- Optional: Add Chocolate Chips:
- If you’re adding chocolate chips, stir them into the batter now.
- Microwave:
- Place the mug in the microwave and cook on high for about 1 minute. The cake is done when it has risen and is firm to the touch. If it’s not done after 1 minute, continue to cook in 10-second intervals until it is.
- Cool and Enjoy:
- Let the cake cool for a minute or two before digging in. You can enjoy it straight from the mug or turn it out onto a plate. Add toppings like whipped cream, ice cream, or a drizzle of chocolate syrup if desired.
Tips:
- Microwave times can vary based on your microwave’s wattage. The recipe is based on a 1000-watt microwave.
- Be careful not to overcook the cake, as it can become dry.
- Experiment with different mix-ins like nuts, fruits, or caramel bits for variety.
