Directions
- 1
In a large mug (at least 300 ml / 10 oz), whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt until evenly combined.
- 2
Pour in the oil and water, then stir vigorously with a fork until the batter is completely smooth with no lumps.
- 3
Microwave on full power for 1 minute, then check the center — it should look just set, not wet.
- 4
If the center is still raw, microwave in 15-second bursts until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
- 5
Allow the mug to cool for 1 to 2 minutes before eating, as the ceramic retains intense heat. Enjoy straight from the mug!
💡 Chef's Tip
Drop a spoonful of peanut butter or a few dark chocolate chips into the center of the batter before microwaving for a gooey molten surprise. Swap water for oat milk or almond milk for a richer, creamier flavor.
