How to Make 5 Minute Chocolate Mug Cake

Step-by-Step

Add dry ingredients to mug, and mix well
Add the egg and mix thoroughly
Pour in the milk and oil and mix well
Add the chocolate chips ( if using) and your splash of vanilla essence and mix again
Put your mug in the microwave and cook for 3 minutes at 1000 watts. The cake will ride over the top of the mug, but don't be alarmed!
Allow to cool a little, tip out onto plate if desired. ( You can top the cake with some Powdered Sugar for looks)
EAT! ( this can serve 2 if you want to feel slightly more virtuous)
