Ok, I’ve known of this cake recipe for a few months, but I never tried making it until tonight. The reason I say it is dangerous is that you can have a decent hot chocolate desert in under five minutes. Any time of the day, your diet can be blown out of the water. So for sharing the guilt. 😉 Don’t skip the chocolate chips….
MINUTE CHOCOLATE MUG CAKE
4 tablespoons cake flour(that’s plain flour, not self-rising)
4 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons baking cocoa
1 egg
3 tablespoons milk
3 tablespoons oil
3 tablespoons chocolate chips(optional)
a small splash of vanilla essence
1 coffee mug
Add dry ingredients to mug, and mix well
Add the egg and mix thoroughly.
Pour in the milk and oil and mix well.
Add the chocolate chips (if using) and vanilla essence, and mix again.
Put your mug in the microwave and cook for 3 minutes at 1000 watts. 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.
EAT! (this can serve 2 if you want to feel slightly more virtuous).
YUMMMMMY…. CHOCOLATE CAKE…. for breakfast 😀
I like the Rachel Ray died (ooops… diet) ad that popped up. “I followed her advice and lost 32 lbs. in one month.”
I didn’t get the Rachel Ray diet, just ads for other recipes. Some good ones too. I may share when I try them.
Sounds yummy – thanks for sharing!
I think if you load the chocolate chips into the center of the batter, and serve this with vanilla ice cream, it would be like one of the ‘lava’ cakes you can get at restaurants. I may have to try that.
I think this is something my girls might like to look up. Easy chocolate fix. Added this to new category… 😉
