5 Minute Chocolate Mug Cake

A note from the home cook:

"This cake is super fast and easy to make. It's perfect for that 'sweet' craving we get and just don't know what to eat to fulfill it. I had this recipe for a few months and tonight I tried it and my husband loved it. I was impressed at the ease in which it took to make it."

Step 1:

Add dry ingredients to mug, and mix well (flour, sugar, cocoa).

Step 2:

Add the egg and mix thoroughly.

Step 3:

Pour in the milk and oil and mix well.

Step 4:

Add the chocolate chips (if using) and vanilla extract, and mix again.

Step 5:

Put your mug in the microwave and cook for 3 minutes at 1000 watts (on high). The cake will rise over the top of the mug, but don't be alarmed.

Step 6:

Allow to cool a little, and tip out onto a plate if desired.
