5 Minute Chocolate Cake in a Mug

I had to test it. I got this recipe through email, but I've also seen it before and just HAD to know if it worked.

It does!!

Here's the recipe: (**I substituted applesauce for the oil, and used fat-free milk. Came out fine, with less fat!**)

4 tablespoons flour
4 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons cocoa
1 egg
3 tablespoons milk
3 tablespoons oil
3 tablespoons chocolate chips (optional)
A small splash of vanilla extract
1 large coffee mug (MicroSafe)

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 vanilla extract, 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.

And here's my process of making 5 Minute Chocolate Cake in a Coffee Mug!!!
