Number Of Ingredients 6

1 egg
1/4 c. powdered sugar
1-2 Tbsp. cocoa powder (depending on how chocolatey you want your cake)
1 standard-sized mug
Some sort of topping (optional)
milk chocolate chips, hot fudge, whipped cream, ice cream, strawberries

Steps:

  • In mug, crack egg, add powdered sugar and cocoa powder. Whisk together with a small whisk until well mixed. Microwave for 50-60 seconds, until the cake is cooked through (but not overcooked!) Top immediately with a handful of milk chocolate chips, hot fudge, whipped cream, or ice cream. For PURE BLISS, my kids and I particularly love to pour several tablespoons of heavy whipping cream over the cake, then eat it with a spoon. Divine!
