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

  1. In a microwave-safe mug or a small microwave-safe bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and granulated sugar.
  2. Add the milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Whisk well until smooth and no lumps remain.
  3. Stir in the chocolate chips and chopped nuts, if using.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. Remove from the microwave and let it cool for a minute before serving.
  7. Dust with powdered sugar, if desired, and enjoy warm.
