Decadent Microwave Chocolate Mug Cake

Ingredients

- 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 3 tablespoons milk
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons chocolate chips

Instructions

1. Prepare the Mug:
Choose a microwave-safe mug that can hold at least 12 ounces to prevent overflow.

2. Mix Dry Ingredients:
Add 4 tablespoons of all-purpose flour, 3 tablespoons of granulated sugar, 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder, and 2 tablespoons of unsweetened cocoa powder into the mug. Stir to combine the ingredients thoroughly.

3. Blend in Wet Ingredients:
Pour in 3 tablespoons of milk, 2 tablespoons of melted butter, and 1/4 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Mix until a smooth batter forms, ensuring no lumps remain.

4. Add Chocolate Chips:
Gently fold in 2 tablespoons of chocolate chips, distributing them evenly throughout the batter.

5. Microwave Cooking:
Place the mug in the center of the microwave and cook on high power for about 1 minute and 30 seconds. Check for doneness; the top should look set and not too shiny. If necessary, continue to microwave in 10-second intervals until fully cooked.

6. Cooling and Serving:
Allow the mug cake to cool for a few minutes before serving. This dessert can be enjoyed directly from the mug or gently transferred onto a plate for a more formal presentation.
