Step 3: Mix Wet Ingredients

Add eggs and vanilla extract to the melted butter mixture. Whisk thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and slightly frothy.

Step 4: Combine Dry Ingredients

In a separate bowl, mix flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Ensure the baking powder is evenly distributed to help your cake rise perfectly.

Step 5: Make the Batter

Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring continuously. Pour in the milk slowly to prevent lumps. Stir until you have a smooth, creamy batter.

Step 6: Add Extras (Optional)

If you want to get creative, fold in chocolate chips, nuts, or sprinkles. These will melt or soften slightly in the microwave, adding bursts of flavor to every bite.

Step 7: Microwave Your Cake

Place the mug or dish in the microwave. Cook on high for 3–4 minutes (depending on your microwave’s power). The cake should rise nicely and have a spongy, soft texture.

Tip: Start checking at 3 minutes to avoid overcooking. The top should spring back when lightly touched.

Step 8: Cool Slightly and Enjoy

Let your cake sit for 1–2 minutes before digging in—it will be extremely hot. You can enjoy it straight from the mug or plate it with a scoop of ice cream, whipped cream, or a drizzle of chocolate sauce.


Why This Cake Works So Well

  1. Microwave Magic – Using the microwave dramatically speeds up the baking process without sacrificing taste or texture.
  2. Perfectly Balanced Ingredients – The mix of butter and oil keeps the cake moist while the eggs provide structure.
  3. Customizable – You can add cocoa powder, fruit, or other mix-ins to tailor it to your cravings.

Quick Tips for Success

  • Use a large enough mug or dish—the batter will rise and can spill over if too small.
  • Don’t overcook—microwave power varies, and a few extra seconds can dry out the cake.
  • Experiment with flavors—try cinnamon, nutmeg, or a spoonful of peanut butter for different variations.
