1-Minute Chocolate Mug Cake

Fast, fun, and extra chocolate chips are non-negotiable! A throwback Vedhica made with her sister — you mix everything straight into the mug, so there's hardly any cleanup.

Method

  1. The dry mix

    Add your flour, cocoa powder, sugar, and baking powder straight into your favourite mug.

  2. The wet mix

    Pour in the melted butter and the milk, with the vanilla essence already mixed in.

  3. Stir it up

    Use your spoon to mix everything together until it's a smooth, chocolatey batter.

  4. Microwave

    Put the mug in for exactly one minute.

  5. The finishing touch

    Take it out carefully — it will be hot — sprinkle your chocolate chips on top so they melt, and dig in.

Vedhica's rule: right before you eat it, you have to add extra chocolate chips on top. Non-negotiable!
