I’m an eat-Nutella-off-the-spoon kind of person. And if you are, too, this is the recipe for you. This spongy, moist cake truly hits the spot. And even better? It’s ready in literally 60 seconds. Completed in only three simple steps, this treat makes dessert for one person unbelievably easy with no oven, tools or advanced skills required!

Makes one cake

Ingredients

1/4 cup of Nutella

2 tablespoons of flour

1 egg

Place the Nutella and whisked egg into your favorite microwave-safe mug and mix. Once it’s well incorporated, add the flour. When the batter is entirely smooth, add to the microwave for 45-60 seconds. Let the cake set for about a minute and then enjoy!
