Ingredients

Servings
  • 3 Tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 3 Tbsp granulated sugar
  • 2 1/2 Tbsp cocoa powder unsweetened
  • 1 pinch baking soda
  • 2 Tbsp mayonnaise (good quality like Hellman's)
  • 3 Tbsp milk whole
  • 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 Tbsp chocolate chips optional, semi-sweet

Instructions

  1. Mix dry ingredients in a mug: Whisk flour, cocoa, sugar, baking soda in a medium microwave safe ceramic mug (at least 11 oz.).
  2. Add wet ingredients: Add in milk, vanilla and mayonnaise.
  3. Blend, add chocolate chips: Stir well with a fork to combine, while scraping along bottom and edges (especially bottom edges if it's not rounded). Sprinkle over chocolate chips.
  4. Cook though in microwave: heat mixture in microwave on high power until just barely cooked through in the center, about 1 minute to 1 1/2 minutes. Let it cool for a minute or two it will be hot.
  5. Optionally top: if desired served topped with vanilla or chocolate ice cream, or with whipped cream and shaved chocolate.

Notes

  • No greasing mug necessary. It's going to stick either way so just soak in water after finishing for easier clean up.
  • Be careful not to over-cook or mug cake will end up dry.
  • Enjoy within about 10 minutes of making for best texture.
