I had seen lots of different versions of "mug cake" online but thought they all seemed way too good to be true. Warm, delicious, gooey chocolate cake in just a minute in the microwave? No way...
After reading lots of different recipes, I kind of combined them all into this amazing creation. It is very versitile and can be adapted to many different cakes based on what candy bar (if any) you use.
Ingredients:
5 Tablespoons sugar
5 Tablespoons four
2 Tablespoons cocoa
A pinch of salt
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 egg
4 Tablespoons milk
4 Tablespoons oil
A splash of vanilla
2 Hershey's kisses (or any mini size candy bar)
2 regular sized mugs or 1 extra large mug
Steps:
1. Combine all the dry ingredients in a mug.
2. Beat the egg in a small bowl and add the other wet ingredients.
3. Pour the egg mixture into the mug and mix the wet and dry ingredients together.
4. If you are using two mugs, divide the mixture so that each mug is half full of batter.
5. Add your Hershey's kisses or candy bar pieces.
6. Microwave each mug for 1 minute to 1 minute 30 seconds (depending on how gooey or baked you like your cake). The batter will bubble up and may spill over, so I always put a plate underneath it.
7. Give it a second or two to settle and enjoy! The top will be super gooey still... It's delish with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top too.
*I gobbled this down soooo fast, then remembered that I hadn't taken a picture yet. Sorry! :)
