5 minute Chocolate Cake

I got this from the May 2012 Reader's Digest Magazine under the article: 5 Things You Didn't Know You Could Do with Your Microwave.

#5 Here's one more feat of microwave magic: a gooey mug of cake, sized just right to satisfy and after-dinner craving.

1/2 cup flour

1/4 cup sugar

1/4 tsp. salt

2 Tbs unsweetened cocoa

2 Tbs. whisked egg

3 Tbs. milk

3 Tbs. oil

3 Tbs. chocolate chips or broken-up candy bar

1/4 tsp. vanilla extract

Chocolate sauce or ice cream

1. Mix first four ingredients together in large coffee mug; add egg and combine until paste forms. Stir in milk and oil, then chocolate chips and vanilla.
2. Microwave on medium for 3 minutes, until cake starts to crown over top of mug. Remove, top with chocolate sauce or ice cream if desired and enjoy.
