DANGEROUS CHOCOLATE CAKE~ IN ~ A ~ MUG

By jab120638

Ingredients

• 1 coffee mug
• 4 Tbsp. cake flour (plain, not self-rising)
• 4 Tbsp. sugar
• 2 Tbsp. cocoa
• 1 egg
• 3 Tbsp. milk
• 3 Tbsp. oil
• Small splash of vanilla
• 3 Tbsp. chocolate chips, optional

Preparation

Step 1

Add dry ingredients to mug, mix well with a fork.
Add egg, mix thoroughly.
Pour in milk and oil and vanilla, mix well.
Add chips, if using.
Put mug in microwave, and cook for three minutes on 1000 watts.
Cake will rise over top of mug--do not be alarmed!
Allow to cool a little; tip onto a plate if desired.
Eat!
(This can serve two if you want to feel slightly more virtuous.)
***And WHY is this the most dangerous cake recipe in the world?
Because now we are all only five minutes away from chocolate cake
any time of the day or night!!!***


'Get thee hence' to the microwave!!! This is GREAT!!! Got the
recipe from a friend, and tried it out immediately. It works! I
see multiple applications for this gem: With kids; grandkids; 4-H
cooking classes; college dorm room when there's only a microwave;
late-night cravings; just enough for one or two servings instead of
an entire cake..........ha, ha! My kids added some drizzles ofb
chocolate syrup and some Cool Whip (we didn't put in the chocolate
chips). You could add canned frosting, too. The batter does rise
up 'way over the top of the mug, but doesn't run down the side. Fun
to watch! Be careful not to overcook--our microwave is higher than
1000 watts, and three minutes was a dab too long--dried the cakes
out a little bit. Anyway, give it a try! And be sure to watch it
the whole time it's baking in the microwave!!!
