Chocolate Peanut Butter Mug (Printable Version)
# What You'll Need:
→ Main Ingredients
01 -
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
02 -
1 1/2 tablespoons granulated sugar
03 -
1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
04 -
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
05 -
Pinch of salt
06 -
2 tablespoons whole milk
07 -
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
08 -
1 tablespoon creamy peanut butter
# Step-by-Step Directions:
01 -
In a large microwave-safe mug, combine flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Whisk thoroughly to blend evenly.
02 -
Add milk, vegetable oil, and peanut butter to the mug. Stir until the batter is smooth and fully combined.
03 -
Microwave on high for 1 minute and 10 seconds. The cake will rise and then settle slightly as it cools.
04 -
Allow the cake to cool slightly, then serve warm directly from the mug. Optionally top with whipped cream or ice cream.
# Helpful Notes:
01 -
For best texture, avoid using egg. It makes the mug cake too spongy.
02 -
A large mug prevents overflow as the batter rises during cooking.
03 -
Stir the batter thoroughly to eliminate dry pockets of flour or cocoa.
