Step 1
Mix flour, cocoa powder, sugar, and baking powder in a large mug (divide between two mugs for even cooking).
Step 2
Pour milk into the dry mix and stir until just combined — a few lumps are fine.
Step 3
Sprinkle chocolate chips on top of the batter, then microwave on high for 90 seconds (a toothpick poked in the center should come out with a few wet crumbs).
Step 4
Remove mug carefully — it will be very hot — and let it cool for 1 minute.
Step 5
Top each mug cake with a dollop of whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
