Ingredients
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup milk
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon chopped nuts (optional)
- Powdered sugar for dusting (optional)
Directions
- In a microwave-safe mug or a small microwave-safe bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and granulated sugar.
- Add the milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Whisk well until smooth and no lumps remain.
- Stir in the chocolate chips and chopped nuts, if using.
- Place the mug or bowl in the microwave and cook on high for 1 minute and 30 seconds to 2 minutes. The cooking time may vary based on the wattage of your microwave, so keep an eye on it to prevent overcooking.
- The cake should be set around the edges but still slightly gooey in the center. If it looks undercooked, microwave for an additional 15 to 30 seconds.
- Remove from the microwave and let it cool for a minute before serving.
- Dust with powdered sugar, if desired, and enjoy warm.
