Hot Chocolate Mug Cakes For Two Recipe
  1. For the cake batter, first whisk together the oil, milk and sugar for a few seconds

  2. Sift in the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt, and whisk again until the ingredients are just combined

  3. Divide the batter evenly between 2 15 oz mugs

  4. Microwave the mug cakes one by one for 60-70 seconds. When done, the cakes should still be soft but not have any wet batter on top. If in doubt, lean on the side of undercooking vs overcooking as that will make them dry

  5. In the meanwhile, get started with the hot chocolate. Add all the ingredients (milk, cream, powdered sugar, espresso powder and dark chocolate) in a nonstick saucepan. Cook and stir over medium low heat for a few minutes until everything is melted and the mixture starts to simmer and thicken up

  6. Pour the hot chocolate on top of the mug cakes

  7. Optionally, top off with whipped cream, marshmallows or shaved chocolate

  8. Serve while still hot and enjoy!
