Chile w/chocolate has been a "thing" with me for several decades. I
first discovered it, oddly enough, at ALDI when I bought some of their
Moser-Roth dark chocolate - for the health benefits as well as the fast
I'm a chocoholic. There were several flavours including two memorable
ones - the chile chocolates and the orange chocolates. I've introduced
Echo Picnic attendees to Moser-Roth dark chocolate at more than one of
the events.
I've made this more than once. In a regular coffee mug it's impressive
to see how the cake juts up frm the china. I've lately done it using a
big latte/soup mug which does not give the spectacular looking result
but is more easily eaten from the mug. Bv)= I use dark chocolate chips
and ground red chilies that I have groqn myself (same ones I use in my
hot sauce).

Title: Chile-Chocolate Microwave Mug Cake
Categories: Cakes, Snacks, Chocolate, Chilies
Yield: 1 Serving
4 tb (45 g) self raising flour
4 tb (55 g) caster sugar
2 tb (17 g) cocoa powder
1 lg Egg
3 tb (43 ml) milk
3 tb (25 ml) sunflower oil
3 tb Chocolate chips
sm Dash of vanilla extract
lg Pinch of dried chile *
* You could use ground chile powder or replace the choc
chips with chile chocolate. You could also use more or
less chile depending on your tastebuds.
Add dry ingredients (including chile) to a large coffee
mug, and mix well. Add the egg and mix thoroughly Add
the milk and oil - mix well (don't forget the corners /
edges of the mug). Add the chocolate chips (if using)
and vanilla extract, and mix again Put your mug in the
microwave and cook for 3 minutes (in an 800 watt
microwave).
The cake will rise above the top of the mug, but don't
worry it's supposed to! Allow to cool a little, tip out
onto a plate.
EAT and enjoy - this can serve two - it's a huge portion
for one!
