5 Minute Chocolate Mug Cake
No Comments »
I don’t often take too much notice of the sort of “chain” type emails that constantly arrive at work, but this one involved food and a recipe I though I really must try! I wonder how many of these little cakes have been made as the email makes its way around the country! I posted the result on facebook and have had requests for the recipe - so here goes….
4tbsp self-raising flour
4tbsp sugar
2tbsp cocoa
1 egg
3tbsp milk
3tbsp oil
Vanilla essence
4tbsp chocolate chips (optional)
Mix all the dry ingredients together in a large coffee mug, then add the liquid ingredients and mix well. Add the chocolate chips, mix again and put into the microwave (mine is 850W) for 3 minutes. It will probably raise up out of the mug but hopefully not overflow! Done - easy! Leave to cool and tip out, or eat from mug!
I think it would probably be very good as a pudding eaten with chocolate sauce!
