Recipe: Cake in a Cup

So sometimes I get a craving for sweets. but I don't want to make a huge pan of brownies for myself, or a huge cake. My roommate's fiance came over with the perfect solution. A whole cake, in a MUG!



Here's the recipe:

4 tbl flour
4 tbl sugar
2 tbl cocoa
1 egg
3 tbl milk
3 tbl oil (can use applesauce as a substitute)
dash of vanilla extract
chocolate chips

Mix the flour, sugar, and cocoa in your mug. Then mix in the egg. It'll be lumpy and quite odd looking. Mix in the milk and oil until smooth. Add a dash of vanilla extract, and the desired amount of chocolate chips. Put in the microwave for 3 minutes. When it comes out you can sprinkle bits of chocolate shavings on top. :)
