2 tablespoons caster sugar (30g)
1 tablespoon cocoa powder (15g)
ó egg (or one small egg)
1 tablespoon milk (15g)

Microwave on full power for around 90 to 120 seconds keeping an eye it doesn’t spill over (stopping if necessary to allow it to drop back down). Take care removing the hot mug from the microwave. Grab a spoon, sit down, put your feet up and enjoy the piping hot freshly cooked mug cake.
