Five-Minute Chocolate Cake

So for all you girls out there, I know that you , like me, often get chocolate cravings. Mine are constant and I'm always wanting a nice big hunk of chocolate cake with some fudge on top. Mmmmm. That is the best. So when a friend of mine gave me a recipe for a chocolate cake in a cup that only takes five minutes to make I had a field day. It is so delicious and if you make it right it is so moist.
(A picture of my cake in a cup and some yummy syrup for on top.
Yes, this is my own picture.)

Now the recipe says that it is optional to add the syrup on top. I tried it first with out and while it was good, it was definitely missing something. So I got into our fridge and dug around and viola! Smucker's Chocolate Sundae Syrup. I drizzled some over top and Oh! it was the icing on the cake (pun intended even if it was cheesy). Also, I recommend making it with normal sized chocolate chips not the mini ones. I made it with the minis the first time and it turned out rather dry but when i used normal sized ones it was quite moist. Make sure the mug you are using is microwave safe and it won't blow up in any one's faces or have gold paint start a fire or anything like that. I do not take any responsibility for any kitchen accidents, not that they are likely. One last thing. The amount of cake the recipe produces can be quite a lot so don't eat it when you are too full. Enjoy!
