This simple and delightful Nutella Mug Cake Recipe offers a quick and enjoyable way to whip up a luscious and indulgent dessert in no time. It's ideal for satisfying your sweet tooth without the commitment of a full-sized cake. Using only a handful of ingredients, you can indulge in your favorite treat wherever you are and at any time.
In a microwave-safe mug, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Add in the Nutella, milk, egg, and vanilla extract, and stir until well combined.
Microwave the mug cake on high for 60-90 seconds, depending on the power of your microwave. Check it after 60 seconds and continue microwaving in 10-second increments until it's fully cooked.
Let the mug cake cool for 2-3 minutes before digging in. Add your favorite topping and enjoy!
Notes
Always use a microwave-safe mug or mini baking dish. A large 12-15 ounce mug or baking ramekin works well.
To prevent the cake batter from sticking to the mug, it's essential to spray the mug or ramekin with non-stick cooking spray before adding the cake batter.
