Ingredients
Yield: 1 large serving or 2 smaller ones
4 tablespoons self-rising flour
4 tablespoons sugar
1 egg
3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
3 tablespoons Nutella
3 tablespoons milk
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
Instructions
Whisk all the ingredients together in a large mug. If you want two smaller mug cakes, mix the ingredients together in a bowl and then divide into two mugs. Whichever size mug you are using, make sure that is not filled more than half way, because the batter rises and you’ll otherwise be left with overspill and a mess in your microwave. Place in the microwave and microwave on high for 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 minutes. Better to have it a bit gooey than too done. Enjoy!
