Ingredients
4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
4 tablespoons granulated sugar
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1/8 teaspoon baking powder
1/8 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons whole milk
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons chocolate chips
Instructions
In a microwave-safe mug (at least 12 oz capacity), whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
Add the milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients in the mug. Stir thoroughly until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.
Fold in the chocolate chips evenly into the batter.
Place the mug in the microwave and cook on high power for 1 minute. The cake should rise and be set but still moist. If it needs more time, microwave in additional 10-second intervals until done.
Carefully remove the mug from the microwave (it will be hot). Let the cake cool for 2 minutes before eating.
