OH SNAP Chocolate Lava Cake

Literally... you can make it in a snap.

INGREDIENTS

• ¼ cup flour
• ¼ cup granulated sugar
• 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder (I used Hershey's)
• ½ teaspoon baking powder
• Pinch of salt
• 3 tablepoons (1½oz) melted butter
• 3 tablespoons of milk
• 1 egg, at room temperature
• ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
• a chocolate piece for the "molten chocolate"
• 1 tablespoon water

INSTRUCTIONS

1. whisk together with a fork, the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt until well combined in a mug
2. Add in the melted butter, milk, egg and vanilla. Whisk well to combine, making sure to mix in the flour mixture in the bottom.
3. Place the chocolate pieces in the center of the mug. It will sink on its own.
4. Drizzle the tablespoon of water right on top of the batter.
5. Cook in microwave on full power for 1 minute and 20 seconds (This depends on the microwave. Our magic number is 1 minute 25 seconds) or until the cake rises to the top, the edges look set but the center looks ever-so-slighly wet and shiny but not raw, and sticks slightly to the finger when touched. Do NOT over bake!  If the center still looks raw then give it another 5 seconds. The cake will fall after it comes out of the microwave.
6. Let it cool for about 5 minutes so you don't burn your tongue.
7. ENJOY...YUM
