1 Coffee mug
4 Tbsp Flour
4 Tbsp Sugar
2 Tbsp Cocoa
1 Egg
3 Tbsp Milk
3 Tbsp Oil
A small splash of vanilla
3 Tbsp Chocolate Chips( if you really want to live dangerous)

Add dry ingredients to mug mix wll with a fork. Add egg, mix thoroughly. Pour in milk ,oil and vanilla, mix well. Add chips if wanted) Put mug in microwave and cook for 3 minutes on 1000 watts microwave a little longer if you have a different wattage microwave. Cake will rise over the top of mug- Do not be alarm. Allow to cool a little; tip onto plate if desired. I usually eat it straight from the mug. I dip my spoon in icing and then dig into the cake and so on and so on. The reason its dangerous is you can now have chocolate cake anytime you want. I usually make up bags of the dry mix ingredients and then add the wet stuff whenever I want some cake!

Making it up in advance would be my downfall lol lol

That sounds really yummy.

Wow! What have you started? I can see great potential with this recipe. Thank you. :shock: :shock: :shock:

sounds so yummy thanls for sharing

This is my kind of cake but dh might have something to say about the size of it. Lol c

Self rising flour or plain?

Ohhh this sounds way too yummy and easy. Eating it warm from the microwave with some topping and a cup of coffee......a little bit of heaven I would say. Thanks!!

Its regular all purpose flour. Thanks for asking!!

:-)

Oh my! This will tempt me :)

More dangerous 1/2 cup dry cake mix, 1Tbs egg beaters, 3Tbs water, 3Tbs oil.

We love this cake, sometimes split into 2 servings, topped with cool whip or ice cream while it is still warm. It tastes and smells divine! A true chocolate lover's dream come true!

Thank you will try it today.

This is more than dangerous!! Since I live alone I can have my cake and eat it all!!! Thanks!!

sounds great but what size cup do you use? I have small 4 oz up to 16 oz LOL have no clue in wich size try this out

wow....

Sounds yummy

I have given this recipe printed on a pretty card and placed in a cute coffee mug as a stocking stuffer Christmas gift, or last minute gift when the need arrives.

I was given a cookbook for cakes in a mug some are great but others you can't find ingredients for!!!

what size coffee mug did you use

I use either a nice size round or a tall mug will send a pic shortly

a large one--I guess it would hold 8 to 10 oz-- a regular coffee cup only holds about 6 oz. I try to find a mug that matches the person I am giving it to, put the recipe in, and a cute mug rug to match would be an adorable and inexpensive gift. (I just thought of the mug rug idea)

what a dangerous and simple receipe divine

I usually cut the recipe in half, trying to save on calories. They are good.

Sounds good. I will have to try it soon.

uuuuummmm I think mine are about 10 oz but Im not sure really. I'm sure they are not 4oz :D !!!

Heres the pics I told you I would send!!

Pics are on

the red one looks like it is the same as one I use! ty

WOW ... thanks, I think. This could be trouble.

Yummy! Can't wait to try it! Thanks

Initially this sounded great, but having looked at it again, I don't think I could get all those tablespoons of dry ingredients in a mug, let alone adding in the egg , milk and oil! Are these quantities really meant for one mug?

This would make a cute Christmas gift. Thank You, for sharing.

Gotta try this Gonna pass it on to my MIL too she loves recipes like this.

Fie on you for ruining our New Year's resolutions!
Coincidently, I have 6-mo old chickens that are just starting to lay, and they lay the cutest small eggs. These eggs are perfect for this recipe, as they equal about half a regular egg.
Now do you have a pie-in-a-cup recipe?

Tried this too and it is yummy too. I lke your idea of dipping the fork in the frosting rather than put a gob of frosting on the mug.

Wow, sounds great, OK winter hips come on.

Sounds great -- thanks ofr the recipe. I shared it with DD since she has a chocolate tooth!! :thumbup:

Wow, Chocolate cake for one! Me!
