Things you'll need:
1. A Microwavable Mug
2. Measuring Spoons
3. 4 tbsp of Flour
4. 2 - 3 tbsp of Brown Sugar (depending on how sweet you'd like your cake)
5. 1 tbsp of Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
6. 1 - 2 tbsp of Melted Butter
7. 2 - 3 tbsp of Milk (depending on how fluffy you'd like your cake)
8. 1/4 tsp Vanilla Extract
9. A pinch of Cinnamon (not necessary, it was just an experiment to add this for me)
10. 1tbsp of Chocolate Chips (or more if you like chocolate)
Options:
1. Instead of adding straight Brown Sugar, you could do half Granulated Sugar and half Brown Sugar. I've seen a few recipes that mix the two, but I'm a Brown Sugar junkie and my cake turned out fine...enough to satisfy my late night chocolate cake craving...
What I like to do:
1. Mix these dry ingredients together first (Flour, Brown Sugar, Unsweetened Cocoa Powder)
2. Add my Melted Butter, Milk and Vanilla Extract next
3. If I'm feeling the Cinnamon, I will put that in next
4. Then I would add the Chocolate Chips
5. I mix it all together to get my cake batter
6. Then I put it into the microwave for 2 minutes (this really depends on your microwave settings because some online recipes put their cakes in for 3 minutes...some 5...but 2 minutes has been a good gauge for me)
7. Your mug chocolate cake should look like a cake...
8. Take it out, let it sit for a minute or so to cool
9. You can de-mug it or not
10. Enjoy!
