I never seem to never get tired of chocolate!
So thought I would share this fast, easy chocolate recipe with you.
5 MINUTE CHOCOLATE MUG CAKE
4 tablespoons flour
4 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons cocoa
1 egg
3 tablespoons milk
3 tablespoons oil
3 tablespoons chocolate chips (optional)
A small splash of vanilla extract
1 large coffee mug (MicroSafe)
(It is best if you mix all ingredients in a bowl before putting in a cup)
Add dry ingredients to mug, and mix well. Add the egg and mix thoroughly.
Pour in the milk and oil and mix well..
Add the chocolate chips (if using) and vanilla extract, and mix again.
Put your mug in the microwave and cook for 3 minutes at 1000 watts.
The cake will rise over the top of the mug, but don’t be alarmed!
Allow to cool a little, and tip out onto a plate if desired.
EAT ! (this can serve 2 if you want to feel slightly more virtuous).
And why is this the most dangerous cake recipe in the world?
Because now we are all only 5 minutes away from chocolate cake at any time of the day


Oh my, this IS dangerous because you know this apple doesn’t fall far from the tree and I love chocolate as much or more than you! I could have cake and no one in my family would ever be the wiser
Just might give this one a try today!
That sounds good until the oil comes into play. I figured out the points (because I started WW again) and the oil is the killer (and so are the added chocolate chips – because they have the fat as well) Ironically, the cocoa itself has no points. It’s the fat that does it, if there were a way to reduce the fat by maybe adding just 1.5 Tbsp and maybe substituting with applesauce – maybe then it would be a sensible treat.
As it stands the cake without chips is 18 points and with the chips it’s 22
Enjoy!
