S'mores for One

Because this is now a food blog apparently . . . you can thank me later . . . here is one more recipe you must try. S'mores in a mug - made in 5 minutes in the microwave. It's a chocolate craving TV evening dream. I'm addicted.


5 Minute Chocolate Fudge S’mores Mug Cake
makes 1 really big mug

2-3 tablespoons graham cracker crumbs
3 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 large egg
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 cup flour
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1/8 teaspoon baking powder
pinch of salt
1 ounce milk chocolate
marshmallow fluff, cream or mini marshmallows

In a small bowl, melt 3T butter and the chocolate in the microwave - about 30 seconds. Set aside.

In your mug, melt the remaining 1/2T butter and then add 2T graham cracker crumbs. Stir and then press into the bottom of your mug.

In another bowl, whisk egg, sugar and vanilla until smooth. Add in flour, cocoa, baking powder and salt. Stir until a thick batter forms. Add the melted butter and chocolate mixture.

Add half of the batter on top of the graham crust. Throw on a handful of mini marshmallow (or fluff), then add remaining batter on top. Microwave for 1 to 2 minutes, depending on your microwave. Remove and let cool for a few seconds (let the marshmallows cool down into the mug). Then if you want, add a few more marshmallows and some more graham cracker crumbs. Pop it back in the microwave for about 10 seconds to melt a little.
