Easy Microwave Nutella Mug Cake: The Perfect Late-Night Treat

Updated: Feb 1


A decadent Coffee Pudding Cake. Rich, fudgy chocolate cake bakes nestled within a silky pool of deep, aromatic coffee pudding. The cake, slightly risen, cradles the shimmering pudding, which oozes irresistibly around the edges. A generous scoop of vanilla ice cream, melting slightly, crowns the creation. Dusting of cocoa powder. Simple white plate. Natural light, soft shadows. Shallow depth of field. Focus on texture contrast. Warm, inviting colors. Style: Gourmet food photography.

Yields: 1 serving Prep time: 5 minutes Cook time: 1-2 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour

  • 4 tablespoons granulated sugar

  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder

  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder

  • Pinch of salt

  • 3 tablespoons milk

  • 3 tablespoons vegetable2 oil

  • 1 tablespoon Nutella

  • Optional: vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for serving

Equipment:

  • 12-ounce microwave-safe mug

  • Fork

Instructions:

  1. Combine dry ingredients: In the mug, combine the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Mix well with a fork.

  2. Add wet ingredients: Add the milk, oil, and Nutella to the mug. Stir until the batter is smooth and well combined.

  3. Microwave: Place the mug in the microwave and cook for 1-2 minutes, or until the cake is cooked through. Keep a close eye on it as cooking times may vary depending on your microwave. The cake is done when it is puffed up and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

  4. Cool slightly: Let the mug cake cool for a minute or two before serving.

  5. Serve: Enjoy your warm and gooey Nutella mug cake as is, or top it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for an extra indulgent treat.

Tips and Variations:

  • For a richer flavor, use whole milk instead of regular milk.

  • If you don't have Nutella, you can substitute it with any chocolate hazelnut spread.

  • Add a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the batter for extra flavor.

  • For a more decadent cake, add a tablespoon of chocolate chips to the batter.

  • If you want a cake with a more cake-like texture, add an extra tablespoon of flour to the batter.
