Minute chocolate Mug Cake
By G-Ma Johnson
This has to be the best recipe I ever found...please try it and enjoy...
1 coffee mug
4 tbls. flour (plain..not self -rising)
4 tbls. sugar
2 tbls. baking cocoa
1 egg
3 tbls. milk
3 tbls.oil
3 tbls. choco chips (optional)
small splash of vanilla
Add dry ingred. to mug, and mix well. Add the egg and mix thoroughly.
Pour in the milk and oil and mix well.
Add the choco chips (if using) and vanilla, and mix again.
Put your mug in the microwave and cook for 3 minutes at 1000 watts.
The cake will rise over the top of the mug, but don't be alarmed !
Allow to cool a little, and tip out onto a plate, if desired. Eat
Can serve 2...and this is the most dangerous cake recipe known because now you are only five minutes away from chocolate cake any time of the day...or night yikes. ! :o) hugs G-Ma
P.S. ashwinspga has given me a good idea.....you can add nuts....also of course choco frosting or whip cream or whatever turns you on...lol

I tried it a second time and realized i ran out of eggs. quickly drove to my neighbourhood store bought the eggs. this time i did it slowly and carefully and finally it turned out delicious.Nana I even added some roasted ground nuts to make the cake crunchier. Thank you so much NANA for sharing such a tasty treat with us
p/s* Nana out of curiosity, :o)

topstuff..thank you sweetie and hope you don't forget the sugar LOL Thanking you kindly for your comment....G-Ma :o) hugs
Wow G Ma, that's looks and sounds amazing, and so simple to make too. I must try it! :)
thank you for commenting my sweet one...am actually enjoying a cup now..ssshhh so please let me know if you liked it ok? G-Ma :o) hugs
Sounds delicious! I'm going to try it. I am a choco-holic!
Sciantel..Hi sweetie Long time no see...How are you? Yes and it is easy and fast and addictive too Yikes !!! Thanks for commenting...G-Ma :o) hugs
I tried this and it did not work. It boiled all over the inside of my microwave. I tried it anyway and it was horrible. WAY too salty tasting. Any idea why?
Oh one thing my microwave is 700 watt. Suggestions on time
oh my so sorry..doesn't call for salt...did you forget the sugar like Ashwin did?..and I do not know about time with 700 watt..Wish I could have cleaned the mess for you tho :o(..
I can try to find out..Thanks tho for letting me know...G-Ma :o) hugs
Well I made another one tonight..it worked very well....but I used cake flour and it seemed rubbery to me. So just all-purpose flour seems to be best...also I added the choco chips this time but they all were on the bottom.....so trial and error i guess?
still is fun.....G-Ma :o) hugs
To think it is so easy and quick to make.
Why did not I think of it first.
It is patentable
hey Mr.M Thank you and how are you?? My best to you and the wife...G-Ma :o) hugs
You've got to be kidding! A chocolate cake you bake in microwave right in a mug for only 5 minutes. Ohhhh, G-Ma you are right. This is dangerous. And then you had to go and add Ashwins great idea. Your killing me!!!! LOL and I love it!
Well I know...it was a mistake finding this recipe...but it works so enjoy...once in a while....Thanks for the comment sugar...G-Ma :o) hugs
Wow what a wonderful recipe , it;s great.
MaryCola thank you for your comment...and did you try it? You are new to me..nice to meet you...G-Ma :o) hugs

I have tried this, it's delicious, and SOOOOOO easy to make. Everyone should try this recipe. It's so easy to make over, and over......
Well nice to meet you sweetie moonbun...and thank you for such kind and gracious words.and feeling very flattered right now...flattery will get you everywhere you know???LOL...and yes I wish I never found this recipe too..it is way too easy...but am glad you like it...G-ma :o) hugs
Ooh -- ooh. Yum, yum! I'm going to try this over the weekend. Even though I swore I was going to join Jenny Craig over the weekend. Great recipe and it sounds super-easy!
yes my dear is easy and soo good too..just use all-purpose flour tho...the first time I used cake flour and it was rubbery..and is better with the choco chips and added nuts...yikess..and is fun to watch grow up over the mug...Kids love it too.
Thanks for your sweet comment and good luck with Jenny Craig..G-Ma :o) hugs

Just tried it. Too heavy and dry. Do you sift the flour 1st or scoop right out of the bag?
i JUST TOOK IT OUT OF BAG but be sure to use all-purpose only...and adding the chips helps too...I have never had a problem....Just make sure you stir each addition well...sorry, wish I was there...Thanks for commenting ...G-Ma :o) Hugs & Peace
Absolutely amazing! Thanks a billion! I love stuff like this!!! Mmmmmmmm!
Just imagine - a cup of coffee with a cup of cake!

G-Ma here is another recipe of your I will try - this sounds amazing! Thanks, Kartika
It is sooo fun and good...Kids love to watch it grow...:O) Hugs G-Ma
I had one of these last year, but not a recipe. Thank you so much for sharing -- I am making one for my hubby and me right now.
goodie let me know how it goes. We love'em...:O) Hugs G-Ma
I cannot believe that this could be so simple. And taste great. I am not a good cook, my husband reckons I can burn water. But what the heck have to go try this. Maybe when he out so I can eat it all by myself. Mean thinking hey what. Thanks for that. Must be good you all cannot be wrong....cheers
burn water...LOL that was funny...and yes it is a good cake just follow the recipe step by step...stir well and then watch it grow...:O) Hugs G-Ma
Great hub!
Great cake too..try it...:O) Hugs G-Ma
This is a great, easy recipe! Up and Awesome!
It is too...make sure you give it a try...but do follow the directions...:O) Hugs G-Ma
Try a spoonful of frosting at the bottom...
This seems simple enough but yet will produce a most delish cup of chocolate. I saw something like this on Dr. Oz where a guest made it with ground flaxseed instead of flour. It is so interesting that yours will rise without baking powder. I will try this!
teaches12345..yes it works and is very good and can be addicting...LOL :O) Hugs G-Ma Thanks for the comment
