Instructions

1. Mix dry ingredients in a microwave-safe mug: flour, sugar, cocoa, and salt.

2. Add wet ingredients: milk, oil, and vanilla. Stir until smooth.

3. Optional add-ins: fold in a few chocolate chips or nuts.

4. Microwave: cook on high for 60–90 seconds (start checking at 60). Cake should rise and look set but moist.

5. Serve: eat straight from the mug or tip onto a plate. Top with ice cream or whipped cream if desired.

Tip

Be careful not to overcook, or it becomes rubbery. 60–70 seconds is usually perfect for one mug.
