Well, it will take you less than 5 minutes for prepping and 1 minute for cooking and you can enjoy an absolutely delicious chocolate cake whenever you like!
This cake has a perfectly soft and spongy cakey texture to it, which makes it the best chocolate cake in a mug. This awesomely delicious chocolate mug cake is a single-serving one.

Recipe Card
Perfect chocolate cake in a mug
Ingredients
Instructions
- First, in a microwave-safe mug ( roughly 1 cup ( roughly 1 cup measurement) all purpose flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Then give the dry ingredients a good mix. (here you can also use brown sugar instead of white to give the cake a nice gooey texture).
- Then add in the milk, vanilla essence and oil. Mix all the ingredients until well incorporated. Finally mix in some milk chocolate chunks into the batter.
- Now microwave for 1 minute. (here I’ve used a 1200w microwave, if yours is different then the timing may vary. If the microwave you have is less than 1200w, it may take you up to 1.5-2 minutes to make the cake).
- Take it out of the microwave oven and let it cool for a couple of minutes.
Had to add more milk but still ok
Not perfect, but very nice.
Tried this many times since the pandemic and in my microwave had to put it for 1.5 minutes. It has been the best go to snack in the evenings or on a Saturday of relaxation. Thank you so much for this recipe.
This was absolutely delicious 😋
