NUTELLA MUG CAKE

http://tasteofpearlcity.blogspot.com/2012/01/any-one-can-cook-series-40.html
Today morning I was very lazy because of the cold. I hid in my blanket with my laptop and started searching food blogs, suddenly I hit on this mug cake  and got obsessed . I ran to my kitchen but my nutella jar was empty. Sigh! My little ones Maher & Fatima like to lick nutella off a spoon. So the jar was empty .I returned to my blanket.  Now I had to wait till one of my elder sons came back. After a very long wait, I finally got to try out this exciting recipe.This is a really easy cake that anyone can make.Cake should be baked in a microwave set to high power and in three minutes, Ta-Da! :D
I was really happy at the idea of a three-minute cake and  That  I can make chocolate cake at anytime .
The only problem? The Nutella jar being full. :P
If all recipes were this easy, how awesome would it be? :D.



Ingredients
4 tablespoons self-rising flour
4 tablespoons sugar
1 egg
3 tablespoons cocoa powder
3 tablespoons Nutella
3 tablespoons milk
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
Whipped Cream Topping (if desired)
½ cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon sugar
Directions
Combine all ingredients in a large coffee mug. Whisk well with a fork until smooth. Microwave on high for 1½– 3 minutes. (Time depends on microwave; mine took 3 minutes.)
Add heavy cream to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment and whip on medium-high speed until almost stiff. Add sugar and beat until heavy cream forms stiff peaks. Top Mug Cakes with whipped cream and a little chocolate sauce, if desired.
