Haven't tried it but my friend did and she liked it and her hubby loved it!
5 MINUTE CHOCOLATE MUG CAKE
4 tablespoons flour
4 tablespoons sugar
pinch of salt
2 tablespoons cocoa
1 egg
3 tablespoons milk
3 tablespoons oil
3 tablespoons chocolate chips (optional)
A small splash of vanilla extract
1 large coffee mug (MicroSafe)
Add dry ingredients to mug, and mix well. Add the egg and mix thoroughly.
Pour in the milk and oil and mix well..
Add the chocolate chips (if using) and vanilla extract, and mix again.
Put your mug in the microwave and cook for 3 minutes at 1000 watts.
The cake will rise over the top of the mug, but don't be alarmed!
Allow to cool a little, and tip out onto a plate if desired.
EAT ! (this can serve 2 if you want to feel slightly more virtuous).
And why is this the most dangerous cake recipe in the world?
Because now we are all only 5 minutes away from chocolate cake at any time of the day or night!

Oh Morag, you obviously haven't read the Meg Diet. Rules are as follows :morag wrote:Takes even longer to burn off the calories!
1. if you eat chips off someone else's plate, you dont consume any calories
2. if you eat chips out of a paper bag - zero calories
3. if you borrow any food irrespective of what it is, zero calories
4. if someone else cooks the food for you - zero calories
5. if it is cooked outside - zero calories
6. if eaten after 6pm - zero calories
7. if poured into a glass - the liquid has no calories
8. if it contains chocolate and you didn't buy it, someone else did, - zero calories
9. deep frying kills calories and the one that is important for this receipe .....
10. microwaving any food kills calories
Enjoy ........

Works for me, Meg, works for me! ( Now I have to just dump the brown paper bag and pour the wine into a glass! )
