Happy Valentines Day everyone!!!!!
So for everyone who’d love to celebrate it and for everyone who wouldn’t, we’ll all enjoy this really easy, delicious dessert.
It’s really simple and a great way to make chocolate cake in a cup. But here’s the catch- you can do it in the microwave. Honestly, if I was more motivated I’d be really fat (thank goodness for my ungodly amount of laziness) because of how delicious this is. Anyways, enjoy and be amazed!
Makes 4 big mugs of cake!
- 3 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup milk or coconut milk
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 pinch salt
Spray mugs with non-stick spray and set aside. In a mixing bowl, combine the butter, sugar, egg, vanilla extract, and milk; blend together. Combine the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt; blend into the mixture until smooth. Pour into greased mugs. Cover and cook in the microwave on high for 2 to 2 1/2 minutes, or until cake springs back when touched. Since all microwaves cook differently, adjust the cooking time to accommodate your machine. To serve, let the cake cool five minutes and eat!
Note: Personally I’m a fan of adding whatever I’m in the mood for. Sometimes honey, or craisins or even more chocolate chips or M&M’s, whatever floats your boat.
