Ingredients:
Dry
2 Tablespoons cocoa
2 Tablespoons flour
3 Tablespoons sugar
Smidgen salt

Wet
2 Tablespoons water
2 Tablespoons oil
2 drops Vanilla
Pinch instant coffee (optional)

Combine dry ingredients in a cup and slowly mix with water until smooth and free of lumps. Add oil and flavourings and blend until combined and smooth.

Microwave 60-90secs.  Serve immediately.


*I prefer bitter chocolate and so use 2 Tablespoon of sugar instead of the 3.  I reduce the time to 65-secs on my microwave.  However, when I am making this for company that likes things sweet, I use the full 3 Tablespoons of sugar in the recipe and increase the time to 90-secs (because sugar adds moisture).  Each microwave is different, so do a test batch first. Smile

Awesome!

just be careful of overcooking them or they'll turn into burnt little hockey pucks stuck to the bottom of a mug Star

The recipe above makes a very moist dense but soft cake, but if you like some rise, add 1/4 - 1/2 baking soda to the mixture.  Again, this will affect the cooking time.

Variations I like:
adding orange/peppermint oil as flavouring. Tongue & of course pushing a hershey's chocolate kiss into the mixture to create an even gooier treat Big smile 

Enjoy!

So G4Royce, on the dry ingredients, are those LEVEL tablespoons?

Yes, these are level tablespoons.  Be careful esp with the oil otherwise it would get too greasy.
