Magic 5-Minute Chocolate Mug Cake

Magic 5-Minute Chocolate Mug Cake

Not so Healthy Version

This recipe is magic in 4 ways:

1. Magic in how quickly you can satisfy your chocolate craving any time of the day or night.

2. Magic in how quickly it draws people to the table that you didn’t even know were home.

3. Magic in how quickly it disappears

4. Magic in how your kids love to make it for you

2. Add egg and mix thoroughly

3. Pour in milk and oil (make sure to stir the bottom edges)
