Ingredients

3 1/2 tablespoons chai tea mix (or use black tea or non-dairy milk)
35 g bittersweet chocolate
3 1/2 tablespoons whole wheat flour
1/8 teaspoon baking powder
1/8 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 tablespoon chocolate chips, of choice (optional)

Method

Place the chai tea mix and bittersweet chocolate into a mug. Microwave at 680 W for about 1:30 until melted, resembling hot chocolate.
Use a fork to whisk the whole wheat flour, baking powder and baking soda into the mug. Stir in chocolate chips if using. The batter should be thick like muffin mix. Add more tea by the teaspoon if required.
Cook the mixture in the microwave for one minute at 765 W. It is ready when the cake has risen and is firm.
Allow the cake to cool slightly before eating. It pairs well with frozen soy yogurt.
