Step 1
Combine flour, cocoa powder, and sugar in a microwave-safe mug. Stir well to break up any lumps.
Step 2
Add the egg and oil. Stir with a fork until smooth and fully combined, about 20 seconds.
Step 3
Fold in chocolate chips with a few final strokes — don't overmix.
Step 4
Microwave on high for 45–60 seconds. Center should be fudgy; the top may still jiggle slightly.
Step 5
Let cool in the mug for 30 seconds. Serve warm with a spoon directly from the mug.
