Warming Butterscotch Chocolate Mug Cake
Ingredients
-30g plain flour
-2 tbsp cocoa powder
-2 tbsp granulater sugar
-1/4 tsp baking powder
-pinch of salt
-1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
-60ml milk
-2 tbsp vegetable or rapeseed oil
-30g (or 3 discs) Lily O’Brien’s Crispy Butterscotch chocolate

-Caramel ice cream to serve

N.B. These ingredients make an average sized mug cake, if your mug is on the larger side, then you can increase all ingredients by a third, making sure not to fill your mug more than just over half full with the uncooked batter.)

Method
-In a small bowl place the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, salt and cinnamon and combine with a fork or small whisk. Mixing all the ingredients in a bowl first makes it easier to combine all of the mixture before adding to your mug
-Add in the milk and vegetable oil to the dry ingredients and whisk until smooth
-Break the chocolate discs into smaller pieces and add into the mixture, stirring again until fully combined
-Spoon the mixture into a microwave-safe mug and place into the microwave
-Microwave for 60-90 seconds, the top of the cake should be just set Microwave settings vary so we would recommend cooking for 60 seconds and then stopping to check on the progress and then continue in 10 second bursts until set
-Remove the mug from the microwave and allow to cool for a few minutes
-Scoop a spoon-full of ice cream on top of your mug cake and enjoy!
