Did I mention that you don't even need an oven to make this delicious treat? You just need a microwave, how fabulous is that. A yummy treat that doesn't require any baking just a microwave. I told you that this was an easy recipe but everyone will think you're the star for providing them with such deliciousness. Let's get on to this recipe now shall we?

Peanut Butter Chocolate Mug Cake Recipe

Ingredients

  • ½ cup flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • 3 tablespoon cocoa powder
  • 2 or 3 tablespoon sugar (I don't like my desserts too sweet, you can add another Tsbp)
  • 2 tablespoon coconut oil
  • ½ cup milk
  • 2 heaping tablespoon Reese spread

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl whisk together the dry ingredients and the Reese's spread. Then add the milk and oil, whisk again until it's smooth. Pour the batter in a microwave safe mug. I believe mine was a 10 ounce.
  2. The batter with rise and then deflate quickly.
  3. Also keep in mind that the wattage in eachmicrowave is different. I cooked it for 75 seconds. I believe 70 second would have worked just fine.
  4. Remove carefully, and while still hot add a tablespoon of Reese's spread on top for that extra yumminess!
