I'm sorry for this, but someone sent this to me and now I hate them for it.


5 MINUTE CHOCOLATE MUG CAKE

4 tablespoons flour
4 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons cocoa
1 egg
3 tablespoons milk
3 tablespoons oil
3 tablespoons chocolate chips (optional)
a small splash of vanilla extract
1 large coffee mug

Add dry ingredients to mug, and mix well. Add the egg and mix thoroughly. Pour in the milk and oil and mix well. Add the chocolate chips (if using) and vanilla extract, and mix again.
Put your mug in the microwave and cook for 3 minutes at 1000 watts (high). 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.
EAT! (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!
You are going to print this out straight away, aren't you

Sorry!
 
We have a 1700W microwave so we cook ours for 2.5 mins. on 60% power.

We have tried flavouring the cake with maple syrup and walnuts and it was good, but volcanic in temperature with mouth burning tendancies.
 
We tried this today with gluten free self raising flour and added milk as a precaution against dryness and it worked quite well. Next time I'm going to add a little more liquid.
