  • 1½ Tbsp Hershey's baking cocoa powder
  • ¼ tsp baking powder

Microwave for 45-60 seconds. (While microwaving, make sure you watch the cake, because it expands rapidly and can spill over the sides of the mug!) Top with 1 tsp. nut/seed butter as soon as you remove from microwave. Serve immediately. Enjoy!
Notes
*For a more cake-like consistency, you can add ½ Tbsp wheat, oat, or other flour. You may need to add a little more milk if you do this.
