🍫 The After-Shift Chocolate Mug Cake

A small comfort for nights when the kitchen is closed but you’re not quite ready for bed.

What you’ll need

• 4 tbsp plain flour
• 2 tbsp cocoa powder
• 2 tbsp sugar
• ¼ tsp baking powder
• 3 tbsp milk
• 1 tbsp neutral oil
• A tiny pinch of salt

How to make it

1. Combine the flour, cocoa, sugar, baking powder and salt in a large microwave-safe mug.
2. Stir in milk and oil until no dry flour remains.
3. Microwave on high for 60 seconds, then check. If needed, cook in 10-second bursts until set but still soft.
4. Let stand for one minute before eating; the mug and cake may be hot.
