3-Ingredient Nutella Mug Cake is the ultimate answer to late-night chocolate cravings, transforming pantry staples into a warm, fudgy dessert in under two minutes.

Ingredients

  • Nutella (chocolate hazelnut spread): 2 to 3 large tablespoons (plus an extra spoonful for topping) Egg: 1 whole egg All-purpose flour: 2 tablespoons

Instructions

  1. Add the spread: Spoon the Nutella directly into a microwave-safe ceramic mug. Add the egg: Crack the whole egg into the mug on top of the Nutella. Whisk: Mix thoroughly using a small whisk until completely smooth and glossy. Stir in flour: Add the flour and whisk until fully incorporated and no lumps remain. Microwave: Microwave on high for 60 to 75 seconds until puffed and set. Finish: Spoon a little extra Nutella on top while warm so it melts over the surface before serving.

Notes

  • Use a mug that holds at least 12 ounces to prevent overflow.
  • Whisk the egg and Nutella until completely smooth to avoid rubbery bits.
  • Start checking at 60 seconds to avoid overcooking.
  • Use room temperature eggs for easier mixing.
