Most Dangerous Recipe

I hope that I am not the only one who, after the kids are tucked into bed, runs to the pantry in search of any yumminess I can find (not everynight... usually). Yes, I am a night time dessert hoarder. I found the below recipe from a friends blog, and just had to share. So this recipe, is for all of those who sometimes find themselves desperately needing a little yumminess - and quick.

Most Dangerous Recipe in the World
Chocolate Cake in a Mug
1 hot chocolate mug
Add & mix well with a fork:
4 tbs flour
4 tbs sugar
2 tbs cocoa
Add & mix well
1 egg
Add & mix well
3 tbs milk
3 tbs oil
little vanilla
3 tbs chocolate chips

Put the mug in the microwave and cook for 3 minutes on 1000 watts. Cake will rise to the top - but it won't flop over. Cool a little, and dip onto a plate. The chips sink to the bottom.

***My note: I thought it was a little too rubbery with 1 whole egg. So I doubled the recipe EXCEPT the egg and put it in 2 mugs. Not bad for chocolate cake in 3 minutes!! ENJOY!

That is super dangerous because all those ingredients are easily in my kitchen. Thanks, I'll use it for the nights I can't sleep & I don't wanna share with anyone!

Sounds yum! And, I must say, it's nice to have a fellow dessert hoarder...I'm like "not now kids, you don't need any more treats today" and once they're napping, ha ha! Sweet tooth time:) My sweet tooth today: your caramels! Wow! Thanks so much! We love them!
