2 Minute Chocolate Yum Recipe

In a small mixing bowl, whip together the cocoa powder, egg, flour, milk, oil, salt, sugar, and vanilla until the batter is smooth. This recipe makes enough for two smaller 6-8 ounce ramekins; fill them a little over full.

Cook one ramekin at a time in the microwave for 2 minutes, or until the cake is puffed up and set. It should feel firm to the touch.

Serve the cake immediately. It's great with a scoop of ice cream, a dollop of whipped topping, or just a simple dusting of powdered sugar or cocoa powder.

For a variation, try making mini black forest cakes: put half the batter in the bottom of a ramekin, top with a small spoonful of cherry pie filling, then cover with the remaining batter before cooking.
