Ingredients
  1. 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil
  2. ¼ cup of whole milk
  3. 1 large egg
  4. ½ teaspoon of vanilla extract
  5. 1/3 cup of self-rising flour
  6. ¼ cup of sugar
  7. 2 tablespoons of unsweetened cocoa powder
  8. ¼ cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
  1. In a small bowl, whisk together the vegetable oil, milk, eggs, and vanilla. Add in the flour, sugar, and cocoa, then whisk again to combine.
  2. Put the chocolate chips into your favorite large mug, then pour in the batter over the chocolate chips.
  3. Microwave on “high” for 90 seconds. The cake should be puffy and bounce back after being lightly touched, if not, microwave for another 30 seconds.
Notes
  1. After microwaving, there will be a thick gooey layer of melted chocolate on the bottom, so no need for frosting!
