Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
- 2 tablespoons evaporated cane sugar
- 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon heavy cream
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon baking powder
Instructions
- Split the oil between two mugs and use your fingers to spread the oil evenly along the bottom and sides of the inside of the mug.
- Add the sugar to a bowl and sift in the cocoa powder.
- Add the egg, heavy cream and vanilla extract, and whisk the mixture until smooth.
- Add the baking powder and whisk it in until there are no lumps, but be careful not to over mix it.
- Split the batter between the two oiled mugs.
- Microwave the mugs one at a time until the batter rises halfway up the sides of the mug. In a 1000 watt microwave, this takes about 20 seconds.
- Flip the cake out onto a plate and eat it while it is still warm.
