Instant Chocolate Cake for One - Recipe - Happy Valentines x

Here is a little Valentine's gift from me to you to help the evening run it's course a little smoother. I'm talking about those 3 special words...

Instant - Chocolate - Cake!

Whether you are sitting in alone tonight or sharing sweet nothings with the love of your life. Maybe you are even an anti-valentines person, well, lucky for you this cake is brilliant anyway and really has very little to do with Valentines, I'm just sharing it 'cause it is YUM!


This is a chocolate cake of the instant gratification variety. I'm not going to pretend that it is as good as a Nigella Lawson Chocolate Fudge Cake (my personal favourite) but it takes 2 minutes to make it... literally 2 minutes from getting the flour out to shoveling it into your face... 2 minutes!!!

HEALTH WARNING - Please eat yummy cake responsibly.


You will need

• 1 microwave safe mug
• 1 microwave

Ingredients

• 1/4 cup self-raising flour
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 2 tbsp cocoa
• pinch of salt

*stir*

• 2 tbsp butter
• 3 tbsp milk
• optional - 1/2 tsp Vanilla extract or Tia Maria

*stir thoroughly*

Microwave on full power for 1min 40seconds.

*Apply to face!*

This is from a recipe I pinned a few weeks ago, but I have altered it to improve the flavour.

I'm off to snuggle down with Mr McG and a mug of chocolate cake and watch some Carry Grant movies.

Enjoy!

and

Happy Valentines
