5 minute chocolate mug cake

A friend (or enemy?!) sent me this recipe this week. I think I might  just try it today! Stay posted!

5 MINUTE CHOCOLATE MUG CAKE!!
4 tablespoons flour
4 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons cocoa
1 egg
3 tablespoons milk
3 tablespoons oil
3 tablespoons chocolate chips or (optional)
A small splash of vanilla extract and your favourite tipple
1 large coffee mug
Add dry ingredients to your largest 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), vanilla extract and a drop or two of your favourite tipple, then mix again.




Put your mug in the microwave and cook for 3 minutes at 1000 watts (high).
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).



If your feeling very very naughty, cover liberally in Bailey's Irish Cream.  

And why is this the most dangerous cake recipe in the world?
Because now you are only 5 minutes away from chocolate cake at any time of the day or night!


Here's a few links to others who have tried it, or other versions online. The first link has some more detailed instructions and variations for different strength microwaves, if you want to get a little more technical.
