5 min chocolate mug cake

Hi, i found this recipe on a link on my FB page. I dont have any eggs so i cant try it out till tomorrow, but if any one does try it tonight please let me know how it goes.

5 MINUTE CHOCOLATE MUG CAKE

4 tablespoons flour
4 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons cocoa
1 egg
3 tablespoons milk
3 tablespoons oil
3 tablespoons chocolate chips (optional)
A small splash of vanilla extract
1 large coffee mug

Add dry ingredients to mug, and mix well. Add the egg and mix thoroughly.

Pour in the milk and oil and mix well.

Add the chocolate chips (if using) and vanilla extract, and mix again.

Put your mug in the microwave and cook for 3 minutes at 1000 watts (high). The cake will rise over the top of the mug, but don't be alarmed! Allow to cool a little, and tip out onto a plate if desired.

EAT! (this can serve 2 if you want to feel slightly more virtuous). And why is this the most dangerous cake recipe in the world? Because now we are all only 5 minutes away from chocolate cake at any time of the day or night!

Oh, it's good. EVIL good.
IMO it needs bucketloads of choc chips in it, though... I've tried it without and just wasn't keen on it. I use squares of chocolate off a block and stuff them in the bottom of the mug before pouring in the batter, it makes a nice squishy chocolately surprise in the bottom
