Ingredients
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/8 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 3 tablespoons milk
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

- If using, fold in the chocolate chips for extra chocolatey goodness.
- Microwave the mug on high for 1 minute and 30 seconds. Cooking times may vary based on your microwave, so check for doneness; the cake should be set but still moist.
