Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Mix flour, cocoa powder, sugar, and baking powder in a large mug (divide between two mugs for even cooking).

  2. Step 2

    Pour milk into the dry mix and stir until just combined — a few lumps are fine.

  3. Step 3

    Sprinkle chocolate chips on top of the batter, then microwave on high for 90 seconds (a toothpick poked in the center should come out with a few wet crumbs).

  4. Step 4

    Remove mug carefully — it will be very hot — and let it cool for 1 minute.

  5. Step 5

    Top each mug cake with a dollop of whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.

Tools you’ll need

  • microwave-safe mug (12 oz, tall)
