Chocolate Mug Cake

So... after three lovely days off (I worked all three days) John returned to work about 40 minutes ago. Remembering a comment I received on my last post from my lovely aunt about chocolate cake... I knew I'd be fine tonight :)
Here is the cake pre-assembled/microwaved:

It was SO easy to mix together. I only made half of the recipe, because there was no one to share it with... and I wanted to still feel slightly virtuous ;)

Here it is cooking...

And three minutes later, the finished product!!

It was sooo yummy! I didn't have any chocolate chips, but that would have made it even more scrumptious. But being the peanut butter junkie I am (and per my husband's suggestion) I dipped my fork in peanut butter before I took a bite. SO good :) :)

Mmmm...I've always resorted to brownies because they're so much easier to make than cake, but now I think I may be able to get my true chocolate cake fix! Thanks!

PS-mind if I add you to my blogroll?

that is so weird. My grandma just gave me this recipe last weekend. I hadn't tried it, but if you can do it I can too.

Miss you and love you. Tell Johnny hi and you need to come to Chicago soon!

Traci :) If you look at my post previous to this, my Aunt Peggy left the recipe in the comments.

Vanessa-- Do you make your brownies and cakes from scratch?! If you do... you're my hero. The only cakes I make from scratch are microwaved ones. And I wouldn't mind at all if you added me :)
