Step 6 Stir in 1 Tbsp dark chocolate chips. Put in microwave on high/100% for 45–55 seconds (depending on depth and width of mug) or until cake rises to top and is firm to touch. Serve with ice-cream, raspberries and chocolate sauce or toppings of your choice. Makes 1.
Cook's tip
• Watch the 'How to make a 2-minute banana white chocolate mug cake' video below.
• To make the cake more pantry-friendly, swap butter for 1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil.
• No milk? Use water instead.
• Instead of chocolate chips, try rolled oats or finely chopped apple or pear.
• For an indulgent adult twist, drizzle your favourite liqueur over the cake once cooked.
• Use microwave-safe cups. Please note, the cups used in this shoot are ceramic, made to look like enamel.
