Chocolate Mug Cake

I am a lady who loves my chocolate. And let's be honest....I am not the only one! There are some nights where all I want is some ooey gooey chocolate. This mug cake is delicious and super duper easy. All of the ingredients are pantry staples and only takes a minute 20 to bake in the microwave.

Alright...let's make some chocolate cake!

Dry Ingredients 

 Incorporating and mixing well dry and wet ingredients

Ingredients:

1/4 c. flour

1/4 c. sugar

2 TB cocoa powder

1/4 tsp salt

1 tsp. vanilla

2 TB oil (vegetable or canola..if I have some in the cupboard I like to use coconut oil)

3 TB water

Mix dry ingredients in mug and then add in and mix wet ingredients.

Microwave for 1:20. More if you like it all the way done or less if you like it a little gooey in the center (I usually do mine for 1:15 and I think it's perfect)

Cappuccino Muffins

Everyday I wake up, usually around 6, sometimes 5 if my hubby has to go in early for a meeting with his foremen. Lucky for me I am such a morning person and don't mind getting up and making my hubby breakfast. However, even my love for baking and making my hubby breakfast doesn't always give me the inspiration to make him biscuits and gravy every morning. A cup of coffee in the morning does help but so do these muffins. Besides my addiction to coffee I absolutely love muffins. They are fast, simple and oh so yummy! Cappuccino Muffins are one of my favorites. First off they have coffee in them, secondly, they have chocolate! What is not to like!!! This recipe was brought into my life by my mother in-law! These are perfect to make the day before for breakfast the next morning or even keep them in the freezer and thaw when needed. I hope you all enjoy these as much as my hubby and I do.
