What ingredients do I need to make chocolate chip cake in a mug ?
Butter
Butter makes the cake hold good shape as well as adds flavor. I made a batch using oil, but I did not like it as much as the butter version. So, I decided to add butter
Flour
I used all purpose flour to make this mug cake.
Honey
Honey is a naturally occurring sugar that adds flavor and moisture to the mug cake.
Baking powder
Baking powder can be added to make the cake rise. The batter has no other leavening agents, so you have to use an artificial leavening agent to make the cake rise. Leavening agent means something that will help the batter to rise up. The baking powder reacts with the liquid in the recipe to create air bubbles and carbon dioxide.
Dark chocolate chips
Dark chocolate chips are added for more texture and flavor.

Frequently Asked Questions:
-How to know when my mug cake is done?
Yes, this is the only tricky part of the recipe. Every microwave oven is different. You can start with a minute. In my microwave, it took a minute at the highest power. You need to check it using a skewer.
-Why is my cookie mug cake overflowing?
Happens when you put in too much batter. Make sure you fill only 2/3 rd of the cup. Cup sizes vary, so whichever cup you use, make sure the batter fills 2/3 of the cup.
-Why is my cookie cake not enough to fill a mug?
Maybe the mug you chose is too big. These recipes are perfect for one serving and your mug maybe bigger than one serving size, I would recommend putting the batter in another cup or mug rather than placing it all in one big mug. This makes sure the brownie bakes evenly.
-Can I take it out of the mug?
Unfortunately, no. You have to dig right in and enjoy.
–Do I need to grease the mug?
No need for lining and greasing. Just pour the batter and bake. You should be good.
