 Flourless Nutella Mug Cake

Here's a quick and easy recipe for a flourless Nutella mug cake:

Ingredients:

• 1/4 cup Nutella
• 1 large egg
• 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder (optional, for a fluffier texture)
• A pinch of salt
• Optional toppings: whipped cream, chocolate chips, powdered sugar, fresh berries

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Mug:

   • Select a microwave-safe mug that can hold at least 8 ounces. You can lightly grease the mug with butter or non-stick spray to prevent sticking.

2. Mix Ingredients:

   • In the mug, combine the Nutella, egg, cocoa powder, baking powder (if using), and a pinch of salt. Mix thoroughly with a fork or small whisk until the batter is smooth and well combined.

3. Microwave:

   • Microwave on high for 1 to 2 minutes. The exact time will depend on the wattage of your microwave. Start with 1 minute, and if the cake is not set, continue to microwave in 15-second intervals until done. The cake should be set but still moist.

4. Cool and Serve:

   • Let the mug cake cool for a minute or two before serving. It will be very hot when it comes out of the microwave.

5. Add Toppings:

   • Top with whipped cream, chocolate chips, powdered sugar, or fresh berries as desired.

Tips:

• Check for Doneness: The cake is done when it has risen and is set in the center. Be careful not to overcook, as it can become dry.
• Customize: Feel free to add mix-ins like chocolate chips, nuts, or a dollop of extra Nutella in the center before microwaving.
