Mug cake in the microwave
Description
Delicious baked treat for the whole family. This mug cake recipe for the microwave uses Nutella, but you can easily make a vanilla or chocolate version instead, if desired. Let's go step by step. 1. Crack the egg into a deep bowl and lightly beat with a fork. 2. Add sugar, cocoa powder, and milk. Mix thoroughly. 3. Pour in the vegetable oil and add Nutella. Beat the mixture until smooth and well combined. 4. Sift the flour with baking powder and add it to the mixture, stirring well. 5. For extra flavor, you can add vanilla extract, cinnamon, or liqueur—especially if the dessert is intended for adults. 6. Prepare a mug; optionally, grease it lightly with butter and dust with flour. 7. Pour the batter into the mug and place it in the microwave for about 2 minutes. 8. Keep an eye on the process, as cooking time may vary slightly depending on your microwave's power. 9. Carefully remove the finished cake and let it cool. Before serving, you can dust it with powdered sugar, drizzle with icing, or top with berries, for example. That's the whole secret—your baked treat is ready. Serve and enjoy!
