Prep Time: 2 minutes
Cook Time: 3 minutes
Total Time: 5 minutes
Yield: 1 mug-sized cake
Ingredients
3 tbsp all-purpose flour
3 tbsp sugar
1 1/2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
2 tsp vanilla sugar (If you don’t have vanilla sugar, use 2 teaspoons granulated sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract)
1 egg
3 tbsp milk
3 tbsp sunflower oil (I used canola)
If you wish:
3 tbsp chocolate chips or grated chocolate
3 tbsp raisins
Sugar syrup, appelstroop (Dutch apple syrup), golden syrup, a dash of liqueur, or vanilla ice cream
Directions
Mix the dry ingredients in the coffee mug. Add the egg and whisk with a fork. Add the milk and oil and whisk some more.
Then stir in the chocolate chips or raisins, if desired. I added chocolate chips.
Place the mug in the microwave and “bake” the batter for 3 minutes on high. The cake may rise above the rim of the mug, but that’s fine. Use a saucer under the mug as it “bakes” to catch any drips. Let it cool for a bit. Add any syrup, dash of liqueur, or serve with vanilla ice cream.
