Description

Yes, really. My hips don’t lie.

Ingredients

  • ½ cups All-purpose Flour
  • 6 Tablespoons Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
  • ½ teaspoons Baking Powder
  • ¼ cups Plus 2 Teaspoons Granulated Sugar
  • ¼ teaspoons Kosher Salt
  • ½ cups Plus 2 Tablespoons Milk
  • ¼ cups Canola Oil
  • 2 Tablespoons Mini Chocolate Chips
  • Whipped Cream, Chocolate Sauce And Cherries, To Serve (optional)

Preparation

First, gather 2 microwave safe mugs. Each mug should hold at least 1 1/2 cups of water to prevent overflows during cooking. Check your microwave, and ensure the power setting is on high.

In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, sugar and salt. Set aside.

In a measuring cup, whisk together the milk and oil. Pour this over the dry ingredients, and whisk until the batter is lump-free.

Divide the batter between the two mugs, and top each mug with 1 tablespoon mini chocolate chips. Microwave each mug cake separately for 70 seconds. After 70 seconds, let the cake rest in the microwave for about 1 minute before opening the door.

Serve with whipped cream, chocolate sauce, ice cream, and cherries, if desired.
