Ingredients
 

  • 4 tablespoons flour
  • ¼ teasoon baking powder
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • ¼ cup milk
  • 3 tablespoons peanut butter
  • 2 tablespoons chocolate chips

Instructions
 

  • In a microwave safe mug, add all ingredients except chocolate. Using a small whisk, mix vigorously until batter is smooth and no flour chunks remain.
  • Stir 1 tablespoon of chocolate chips into the batter. Sprinkle remaining 1 tablespoon on top of the batter.
  • Cook in the microwave at full power for about 1 minute. If cake batter is still gooey, cook for an additional 15 seconds. Allow cake to cool a few minutes before eating. Cake is best eaten warm.

Notes

  • It is best to eat the cake directly from the mug and avoid removing it from the mug to eat it as the crumb is looser than a traditional cake.
  • If you choose to omit the chocolate chips, you may need to add a little more sugar to the batter.
