This simple, 5 Minute Molten Lava Chocolate Mug Cake is almost as good as the real thing: moist, rich, decadent, and filled with a pool of molten chocolate.
To a 10-12oz microwave safe mug, add the butter and 1 oz dark chocolate, and melt in the microwave in 15-20s increments until molten and combined
Add the milk and sugar, and use a fork to mix well
Sift in the dry ingredients (flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt), and gently stir with the same fork. Scrape the fork along the edges to ensure everything is well combined
Dip the chocolate truffles in the center (no need to push down all the way to the bottom)
Clean the edges of the mug if needed, and microwave for 60-70s
Dust with powdered sugar and serve!
