I tried making mug brownies/cupcakes/whatever a few times and they came out edible but very mediocre.
Still want to try this...

Someone pointed out on GAF yesterday this sounds like Yoshi, or something.
Yeah, I wanna eat that all up.
Somehow having the cake in a mug makes me a little nauseous. When ingredients are used to bake the cake I can at least justify in my mind that the fat and sugar is spread out through out. This is just oil, sugar, and fat in a cup. I'm sure it's delicious though.

Microwaved cake is nasty.
It's nutella, no need for "apparently."

Godddaaaaamn that looks good
The fact that this thing only takes like 5 minutes to make is what's impressive. Diabolical.

I have never tasted Nutella. WTF am I waiting for?
Well, that'll probably make me wait longer.
So you're telling me I just mix these ingredients, put them in a microwave, and out comes a cake? This is brilliant.
Too bad I'm allergic to nuts, so no Nutella.
How about 100 calories?

I'd bet the actual unedited stuff looks like mud and tastes like grainy nutella.
The work of the devil!

Nutella is amazing. I didn't try it until a few months ago. My ex loved the crap out of it.

I was thinking the person was mistaken at first, but it works. I wouldn't exactly call it cake though.
That one also looks good. Gotta give it a go.

It's too bad I'm allergic as fuck to two major ingredients in Nutella: hazelnuts and whey. I can never eat this.

Ok, out of that, I only Nutella & milk & maybe the egg.
Where the hell would one get "self" rising flour?

It's quite common, but you can make your own with a cup of all purpose flour, 1.25 tablespoons of baking powder, and 1/4 tablespoon of salt. Anyway, I tried the recipe tonight (with only a splash of olive oil...the nutella has enough fat already). It turned out quite tasty but easily was enough to fill two of our largest mugs and feed 3 people.

Shit, if I had that type of skills I would be cooking meth.
I guess regular sugar & regular flour won't work?

I just made this but cut the sugar. to 1tlbs and it turned out great. I cannot believe how much this thing rises. I also added a pinch of baking powder. This is not a dessert for one it is more than a dessert for two. my mug is over 600ml and it still overflowed. this mixture could fit into two standard 400ml mugs without any problems for 450 calories per serve or make it a dessert for three peolple at 300 calories per serve and cook them in a brulee pot for better looks.
I will have another go at this to make it look nicer using three brulee pots. Whip your own cream. it makes a world of difference. top with a piece of strawberry to balance the flavour. for less than five minutes total work and a little bit of time waiting it is well worth it and a hit with any girl. well my gf liked it at least.
i feel so dirty after eating
it though.

At least you could put them on a friends floor and something and pretend it was a dog poo.

I don't have a microwave but I want to try baking it with an oven. How long and what temperature I can use then?
I'm not convinced about microwave cooking but since you've made it and all, does it taste good and cake-like?
Regular sugar is fine. That's what granulated white sugar is. But you could use any kind of sugar or none at all. It would just be less sweet. You only need to baking powder to make the all purpose flour rise (self rising already has a rising agent added).

Perfect for a tea party, so easy and convenient! Wish I had a microwave though.
