1 Minute Gooey Chocolate Cake


  • Author: Sarah White

Description

Enjoy a rich and gooey 1 Minute Chocolate Cake made in the microwave. Perfect for fast cravings and easy indulgence.


Ingredients

Scale
  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour

  • ¼ cup white sugar

  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder

  • ⅛ teaspoon baking soda

  • ⅛ teaspoon salt

  • 3 tablespoons milk

  • 2 tablespoons canola oil

  • 1 tablespoon water

  • ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract


Instructions

  1. Combine dry ingredients.
    In a microwave-safe mug or bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.

  2. Add wet ingredients.
    Pour in milk, canola oil, water, and vanilla extract. Mix well until smooth and free of lumps.

  3. Microwave.
    Place the mug in the microwave and cook on high for 60 seconds. The cake should rise and look set but still be gooey in the center.

  4. Cool briefly and serve.
    Let it sit for a minute or two to cool slightly. Enjoy directly from the mug or tip onto a plate. Optional toppings like whipped cream or berries make it even better.

Notes

Cooking times vary by microwave wattage—start with 60 seconds and add 10-second increments if undercooked.

Don’t overcook, or the cake will dry out.

Use any neutral oil if canola isn’t available, or try melted coconut oil for a flavor twist.
