1 Minute, 4 Ingredient Molten Chocolate Mug Cake!

So, tonight I was sitting in my apartment studying for class and in need of a break when the craving for chocolate cake hit me which is a rareity as I am not a huge fan of either cake nor chocolate lol So, I stumbled across this amazing recipe which takes maybe 5 minutes to put together and only a minute to cook in the microwave, so needless to say I was back to studying in no time! I added the chocolate chips to make it even better; you can make it without them if you don't have them on hand. I had some mini choc chips in my fridge so I just put them to good use, and I'm sure if you ate it with some yummy vanilla ice cream it would be devine too!

Ingredients:
1 egg
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1-1/2 tbs cocoa powder
1 tbs choc chips

Directions:

1. Crack the egg into a mug and add in the cocoa powder and powdered sugar and mix it together well.

2. Microwave the mixture for 1 minute, it should be cooked through but still slightly gooey (don't worry if it starts overflowing while it microwaves it will go back down when it cools off a bit). You can add more choc chips or some Hershey's syrup on top, and ice cream if you like and enjoy!
