Brownie in a Microwaveable Mug

This had to be the easiest cake recipe that I ever encountered.

This is the only recipe that I have read, tried and tasted in less than 10 minutes in total...so far.
This is the only recipe that I have read, tried, tasted and blogged immediately.
This is a good recipe for a good cake or chocolate fix.


Ok, the pics don't look that pretty but I assure you that the cake is good enough for a 5 minute effort. Way worth it! With nuts, it will be excellent.
