3 Minute Nutella Chocolate Cake

My friend, Lacie, sent me a text the other night about this chocolate cake she made. In a mug. In the microwave. In three minutes! I decided to give it a try tonight and added my own little twist! It is tasty and rich...and perfect when you need a little chocolate fix!

Three Minute Chocolate Cake

4 Tablespoons All Purpose Flour

4 Tablespoons Sugar

2 Tablespoons Unsweetened Cocoa Powder

1 Egg

3 Tablespoons Milk

3 Tablespoons Oil

1-2 Tablespoons Chopped Hazelnuts (optional)

3 Tablespoons Chocolate Chips (optional)

Small Splash of Vanilla

Nutella

French Vanilla (or plain) Cool Whip

Add dry ingredients to a large mug and mix well. Add the egg and mix thoroughly. Pour in the milk and oil and mix well. Add the chocolate chips and hazelnuts, if using, and vanilla, and mix again.

Put your mug in the microwave and cook for 3 minutes on high. The cake will rise over the top of the mug, but don't worry, it won't explode! Poke holes in the top of the cake and spoon a small amount of Nutella over the top of the warm cake. Move to a plate and serve with Cool Whip...or eat it right out of the mug!
