Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons flour
  • 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup milk

Instructions

  1. Mix Dry Ingredients: Combine the flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder in a microwave-safe mug. Stir until these dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
  2. Add Milk: Pour in the milk and stir the mixture until smooth and free of lumps.
  3. Incorporate Nutella: Add the Nutella to the mug and mix thoroughly until the batter is uniform in color and texture.
