Chocolate Cake in a MUG

HERE’S WHAT YOU NEED :

• 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 4 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
• ½ teaspoon baking powder
• 1 large egg
• 3 tablespoons cold coffee or milk
• 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
• ¼ teaspoon vanilla, almond or coconut extract
• 4 tablespoons chocolate chips
• 2 coffee mugs or 1 large oversized mug

HERE’S HOW YOU DO IT :

Mix all of the ingredients except for the chocolate chips in one mug or a separate bowl; stir until completely combined. Then pour ½ of the contents into another mug. Add 2 tablespoons of chocolate chips in each mug; mix well and bake in the microwave for 3 minutes.

If using an oversized mug, combine all ingredients into the mug and then cook in the microwave for 3 minutes.

Serve warm and top with chocolate syrup, ice cream or whipped cream. Enjoy!

HERE’S WHAT YOU NEED :

• ½ cup heavy cream
• 2 tablespoons powdered sugar  
• ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract

HERE’S HOW YOU DO IT :

In a large bowl, whip cream with an electric mixer (on low setting) slowly until cream doubles in size. Beat in powdered sugar and vanilla. Once sugar and vanilla are incorporated, increase speed to medium for 30 seconds, then beat on medium-high for an additional 2 to 3 minutes, until stiff peaks form.  

Special Note : Make sure your bowl is completely dry before adding ingredients.  Do not over-mix. Whipped cream will become clumpy if over-mixed.
