Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp Butter-softened

  • 2.5 tbsp Brown sugar

  • 3 tbsp Plain flour

  • 0.25 tsp Baking soda-just a pinch

  • 1 and 1/2 tbsp Cocoa powder-or more to taste

  • 1.5 tsp Instant coffee

  • 2 tbsp Milk

  • 3 tbsp Water

  • 0.25 tsp Vanilla Essence

Directions

  • Spray the inside of your chosen mug or grease with butter.
  • Either in the mug, or in a bowl, add all of the ingredients and stir until completely combined.
  • Make sure the inside rim of the mug is free from excess batter, wiping or required, and then pop in the microwave.
  • Cook on high power until the cake has risen and looks moist, but not wet, on the top. Check it every 30 seconds, for 2-3 minutes. Watch carefully, as the cake becomes dry when overcooked.
  • Allow to rest and cool before eating, topped with cream or ice cream.
