Promised a while back. After many variations I now have a recipe that i’m happy with. It is more pudding-like than cake but yum-per-minute-of-preparation factor is high. very high.

Ingredients:

• 3 tablespoons SR flour
• 3 tablespoons sugar (castor is good if you have it)
  
• 2 tablespoons cocoa
• 1 egg
• 3 tablespoons milk
• 3 tablespoons softened butter
  
• ¼ teaspoon vanilla essence
  
• 1 tablespoon choc chips (not melts, the little chip ones…melts dont melt quick enough!!)
  
• 1 large mug

Method:

• Mix the sugar and butter together with a fork until it is kinda creamed – i’ve found this gives a better buttery consistency to the final product.
• Add dry ingredients to the mug…mix well.
• Crack egg into mug. mix well, scrape bottom to avoid any pockets of flour in the corners.
• Pour in the milk and vanilla essence. mix well.
• Add the choc-chips and stir a tiny bit. not too much or they all go to the bottom.
• Pop your mug into the microwave & zap for 2.5 minutes on high.

Use mits when you get it out of the m/wave – get’s really hot. I tip it out of the mug into a bowl and eat with cream or ice cream. you could eat it straight from the mug if that’s how you roll.

enjoy!! Love to hear how it goes for you.
