Ingredients
Scale
- 4 tablespoons all purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 4 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 3 tablespoons milk
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons chocolate chips
Instructions
- In a microwave safe mug, combine flour, cocoa powder, granulated sugar, and baking powder.
- Add milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients.
- Stir well until a smooth batter forms with no dry streaks.
- Fold in 1 tablespoon of chocolate chips into the batter.
- Place the remaining 1 tablespoon of chocolate chips in the center of the batter to create the molten core.
- Microwave on high for 60 to 80 seconds until the edges are set but the center remains soft.
- Let it rest for 1 minute before serving to allow the lava center to settle slightly.
- Serve warm and enjoy directly from the mug.
Notes
- Microwave times may vary depending on wattage, start with 60 seconds and add more time if needed.
- Do not overcook or the center will lose its molten texture.
- For extra richness, add a small square of chocolate in the center instead of chips.
