Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 1 servings

  • 5 tablespoons white sugar

  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour

  • 3 tablespoons milk

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil

  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder

  • 1 egg

  • 1 dash pure vanilla extract

  • 1 pinch salt

Directions

  1. Mix sugar, flour, milk, olive oil, cocoa powder, egg, vanilla extract, and salt together in a large microwave-safe mug.

  2. Heat in the microwave until the center of the cake is done, about 2 minutes.

Cook's Note:

Because this recipe makes such a big mug cake, split the batter in two for smaller cakes. Microwave for 1 minute to 1 minute 50 seconds or until a toothpick comes out clean. If the edges of the cake begin to bubble take it out of the microwave immediately.

Substitute 4 teaspoons stevia extract for sugar, if desired.

Substitute vegetable oil for the olive oil, if desired.
