BAILEY’S IRISH CREAM CAKE
4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
2 tablespoons fat-free milk
1/2 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 tablespoon Bailey’s Irish Cream
1 tablespoon bittersweet chocolate chips
Combine all ingredients except chocolate chips in an oversized microwave-safe mug. Mix with a small whisk until batter is smooth. Stir in chocolate chips.
Cook in microwave for about 1 minute. If cake is not done, heat an additional 15 seconds. Let cake cool a few minutes. Cake is best consumed while still warm or within a few hours of being cooked.
