Ingredients

  • 3 Tablespoons Nutella plus more for topping
  • 3 Tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 Tablespoons milk
  • 1/8 teaspoon baking powder
  • Powdered sugar for topping (optional)

Instructions

  • Spray an 8-ounces mug or larger with cooking spray. Add all 4 ingredients to the mug and stir together until smooth. It will be thick.
  • Microwave on full power for 1 minute to 1 minute and 20 seconds.
  • Serve with a dollop of Nutella or a sprinkle powdered sugar, if desired.

Notes

  1. Extra Nutella and powdered sugar are not included in nutritional value.
  2. Make sure that you are using at least an 8 ounce sized mug.
  3. If you don't want to top with more nutella or powdered sugar you do not have to.
  4. Alternative toppings include whipped topping or ice cream.
  5. You can add in additions to this recipe, see above for ideas.
  6. We do not recommend freezing this recipe.
  7. Let cool for 5 minutes so you don’t burn your mouth when you eat it. 
  8. If you want the sides of your mug to be more clean I suggest either wiping the sides down after mixing or mixing in a small bowl before transferring to a mug. There will still be a small amount of cake on the sides after cooking, but it will look nicer if you wipe it clean.
  9. You can double this recipe and then divide between 3 12-oz mugs. Your cooking time will be closer to 90 seconds.
