Ingredients
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- 5 tablespoons sugar
- 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 1 large egg
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 2 tablespoons semisweet chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon Nutella
- Dash of vanilla and salt
Instructions
- Whisk all the ingredients together in a large cocoa or coffee mug until smooth.
- Microwave the cake on high until puffed, about 2 minutes, watching carefully as microwaves can vary in strength. If desired, drizzle chocolate syrup or hot fudge sauce on top.
- Scoop cake onto a plate or in a bowl and serve immediately with a scoop of ice cream, if desired, but which I highly recommend.
Cup of Yum
Notes
- For a PB Variation: try subbing peanut butter for the Nutella. If you aren't a fan of either, simply leave it out.
- Serving: err on the side of under-microwaving slightly and eat it immediately. The texture gets a bit spongy and weird upon sitting.
