Steps:
- Microwave the butter in a microwave-safe mug in 10-second increments until melted, 20 to 30 seconds. Crack the egg into a small bowl; add the vanilla and whisk to combine using a small whisk or fork. Pour the egg mixture into the mug over the butter and whisk to combine.
- Add the sugar, cocoa powder and salt and whisk until mostly smooth (a few lumps are O.K.). Scrape down the sides the best you can with a spoon or a small silicone spatula. Sprinkle with mini chocolate chips, if desired.
- Cook in the microwave on high for 1 to 1 1/2 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean. Sift a little confectioners' sugar on top or serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, if desired. Dig in with a spoon.

Steps:
- Stir together the oil and sugar in a 12- or 14- ounce ceramic, microwave- safe mug, using a fork. Stir in the egg yolk and vanilla, and then the sour cream. Stir in the baking powder and salt, and then the flour and cocoa powder.
- Stir in the chocolate chips and microwave on high for 1 to 2 minutes, depending on your microwave (in my microwave, 1 ½ minutes is just about golden). The cake is done when it rises above the edge of the mug (or close to it) and its top looks glossy and set, but not wet.
- Let cool briefly- it will collapse-sorry, but true. The center will be more molten-like than cake-like, very soft, and very hot-be careful! Enjoy ASAP with vanilla ice cream.
Tips:
- Use high-quality chocolate: The quality of the chocolate you use will greatly affect the taste of your mug cake. Use a chocolate that you enjoy eating on its own, and make sure it has a cocoa content of at least 70%.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the mug cake tough. Stir just until the ingredients are combined.
- Use a large enough mug: The batter will rise quite a bit, so make sure you use a mug that is at least 12 ounces in size.
- Microwave the mug cake in short intervals: This will help to prevent the mug cake from overcooking. Start by microwaving it for 30 seconds, then check the doneness. If it is not done, continue to microwave it in 10-second intervals until it is cooked through.
- Let the mug cake cool for a minute before eating: This will help to prevent the mug cake from burning your mouth.
Conclusion:
This chocolate ice cream mug cake is a quick and easy dessert that is perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth. It is rich, chocolatey, and has a delicious ice cream-like texture. With just a few simple ingredients, you can have a delicious mug cake in minutes. So next time you are craving something sweet, give this chocolate ice cream mug cake a try. You won't be disappointed!
