5 MINUTE CHOCOLATE MUG CAKE

Submitted by Elizabeth Rand

I would suggest that you put a paper towel under the mug.

4 tablespoons flour (not self-raising)
4 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons baking cocoa
1 egg
3 tablespoons milk
3 tablespoons oil
3 tablespoons chocolate chips
2-3 tablespoons chopped nuts (optional)
a small splash of vanilla
1 mug

Put dry ingredients in mug mix well Add the egg and mix thoroughly. Pour in the milk and oil and mix well. Add the chocolate chips & nuts (if using) and vanilla, and mix again. (you can also do all the above in a bowl and then pour it in your mug)

Microwave for 3 minutes at 1000 watts. The cake will rise over the top of the mug, but don't be alarmed! Allow to cool a little, and tip out onto a plate if desired.
YUM!
Note: This can serve 2 if you want to feel slightly more virtuous.

And why is this the most dangerous cake recipe in the world? Because now we are all only 5 minutes away from chocolate cake at any time of the day or night!
