I have been married to a wonderful Christian man since 1976. The Lord has blessed us with two daughters and two sons. I consider each day the Lord gives me on the earth yet another chance to serve Him.

Microwave Mug Lava Cake

Every once in a while I have a real hankering for some rich ooey-gooey chocolate.  This recipe takes care of that hankering.




MICROWAVE MUG LAVA CAKE
(servings: 1 large or 2 small)

Ingredients:
*1/4 cup all-purpose flour
*1/4 cup granulated sugar
*2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
*1/2 teaspoon baking powder
*1/16 teaspoon salt
*3 tablespoon butter, melted
*3 tablespoons whole milk
*1 medium egg
*1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
*1/8 - 1/4 cup chocolate chips (milk, semi-sweet or dark)
*1 tablespoon water

Directions:
~In a large (2-cup) microwave mug, whisk with a small whisk or fork, the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt.
~Add melted butter, milk, egg and vanilla.
~Whisk until mixed well.
~Put chocolate chips in center of mug over cake mixture.
~Drizzle water over mixture.
~Microwave on full power for 75-90 seconds, or until the cake rises to the top.  The edges will be set, but the center will still be wet and shiny.
~Remove from oven and allow to cool for 5-6 minutes before eating.
