Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1/4 cup Nutella
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

Method
 

  1. Add Nutella, egg, and flour to a microwave-safe mug.
  2. Whisk the ingredients together until the batter becomes smooth and lump-free.
  3. Microwave the mug on high for about 60–90 seconds until the cake rises and sets.
  4. Let the cake cool for about 1 minute before eating.
  5. Enjoy directly from the mug or top with ice cream or whipped cream.

Notes

  • Do not overcook or the cake may become dry.
  • Use a large mug to prevent the batter from overflowing.
  • Add chocolate chips or chopped hazelnuts for extra texture.
  • Top with powdered sugar or whipped cream for a bakery-style finish.
  • Best enjoyed warm right after cooking.
